I just spent a weekend at this hotel with husband while attending a convention downtown. It was easy to get to, right off of the highway. Having stayed at other Hampton Inns I was expecting a certain amount of quality.....but did not get it. Upon check in I was informed that the king size bed I thought I had reserved was only considered a "preference". As in I guess my reservation said that I “prefer” to play roulette and see what size bed I will be sleeping in. Basically this hotel will stick you with whatever room they feel like sticking you in. Needless to say I was not happy and the desk clerk told me that it was Cowboys training camp so I should have felt lucky to have a room at all! Much less one that was non-smoking.
I can truly say the only reason I did not turn around and go to a better hotel on the northside of town was that it was late and the convention started early. Oh, and their pool was broken because of maintenance. But I was told I could go 6 blocks away and use the holiday inn's pool (hmm....maybe they have a king size bed available?)
Off to bed...and I have to say a single bed does not fit two people comfortably.
The next morning we had the continental breakfast which looked like a swarm of starving wasps had rolled through it and eaten everything. There isn't enough room in that area and I hope they remodel that area some day. The parking is free and it’s a good location which is about the only thing you get for staying at this hotel.
If you can spare the extra bucks, upgrade to somewhere nicer. This place is small and well.....not worth it. You can stay at a much nicer hotel off of the 410 loop for the same price.
But if you want to be within walking distance to the mall I guess this is the place to go. I won’t stay here again! Go some place else and pay for parking on the riverwalk!
