Hampton Inn Clarion

I stayed with you on December 5th and was impressed by how clean the whole place was. But when I came back to pick up something I'd forgotten, I saw the receptionist taking the tip I'd left for the cleaning staff. I don't think they should take that money if they aren't the ones cleaning the rooms.

A nice clean room, friendly staff, and a good breakfast, much like other Hampton Inns. It's right off I-80, with plenty of nearby stores and restaurants. I've stayed here before and will probably be back. Hilton points are a bonus too.

The pool and fitness center are nice to have, and the staff are friendly and helpful. The Hampton Inn is clean and well maintained, though the rooms have a strong plug-in air freshener scent. I unplugged it right away. Maybe it's there to cover pet odors?

It's a standard Hampton Inn, no frills, but clean enough. The toilet leaked onto the floor, and the lumpy beds made a lot of noise when we got in and out. Still, it was fine. If you've seen the soup Nazi episode of Seinfeld, you'll appreciate the woman running breakfast. It goes until 10, but when we arrived at 9:15, she said the hot food ended at 9. We asked why it said 10, and she explained it takes her 45 minutes to make the hot items and she has a schedule to keep. Then she said, "this isn't a restaurant." We grinned and took a bagel and some juice.
