This property fits in with why Hampton Inn is a regular choice for our family's travel. As expected, everything was comfortable, everyone was friendly and helpful, and it was relatively easy to leave and return to the parking lot. One piece of advice, In-n-Out traffic, adjacent to the property may affect navigating the parking on that side, but fabulous stay with low stress and a nice room.
The beds were comfortable, the room was clean, and I appreciated the additional lighting in the bathroom.

Amazing friendly service. Sebastian was especially helpful and informative.
All the staff went over and above what we have received from some other hotels.
The breakfast each morning, which came with our reservation, was absolutely delicious and a great variety to choose from. The best part of breakfast was Anita - she was so helpful and friendly each morning - it made having breakfast there a wonderful experience! We highly recommend this hotel!

Don’t pick a hotel close to an In-n-out
Worse parking situation ever. And there is a In and Out Burger RIGHT next to one end, with the drive through letting out into the only available parking area. So the slobs get their food park in the hotel spots, then dump their trash in the parking lot. Not to mention the homeless encampment right next to where the cars park ( even more trash). The room was good, but make sure they don’t give you one on the first floor next to the parking lot, burger slobs partying outside your window.

Will try another stay.
The property was mostly clean. Our room had a number of issues. We could have asked for a different room, but since it was just a place to sleep they weren’t enough of an issue to move.

Air conditioner didn’t work. Switched rooms and still didn’t work. I’d never stay at a Hampton Inn again.
