Our 2 night stay here was very comfortable. The rooms are clean, the staff is friendly and courteous. The breakfast was standard Hampton Inn fare: waffles, scrambled eggs, yogurt, fruit salad, etc. As stated in some of the other reviews, the exercise room is small. The pool area is a little outdated, but very clean. The grounds were well maintained.... More

From the first step (creating a link for my wedding guests to easily book a room), to the speedy check in, and throughout the entire stay.... Amazing!!! The staff is beyond friendly and helpful. Every interaction I had was pleasant and I consistently felt that I given the best service from the morning staff, day staff, overnight staff, even the... More

I Stayed one night at this hotel while traveling to a meeting in the area. The hotel is comfortable and clean. The amenities are elegant but not too formal. The staff was very helpful, and knowledgeable. The hotel appears to be slightly tucked away from the main stream of the area, but it's location is conveniently close to the freeway... More

We needed a place to stay overnight on a quick trip to the San Diego area. We decided on the Hampton Inn because of location and reputation of cleanliness. We weren't disappointed. Our room was spotlessly clean, the bed was really comfortable and the sheets were nice and soft (frequently they feel like burlap). The breakfast was decent - the... More

On my way to San Diego, needed a quick room and just stopped in. Nice property, clean. Good AAA rate, 30 miles north of San Diego. Next to Hwy 15 and good location on Hwy 78. Breakfast was good, better than many Hamptons. Only issue, thin walls. When the guy had a sneezing attack next door, the walls were shaking.... More

This Hampton Inn was excellent place to stay while visiting friends in the area. The rooms are very clean and up to date. Nice flat screen TV. Gym was small with only had 3 machines but the equipment was new and clean. Breakfast was OK, not great. The scrambled eggs were weird (probably powdered eggs) but everything else was good.... More

Clean, comfortable, and quiet. Easy access to the highway, restaurants, and grocery stores. More of a secluded location that the other options embedded in the city. Large and spacious. Excellent and helpful staff More

I wouldn't normally review a Hampton. I stay at Hamptons a lot for business and they are all pretty much the same. I stayed at this property for 2 weeks this past summer and I feel that I can address some of the issues in previous reviews. 1. Management: David and Lauren were efficient and responsive. The hotel was full... More

Like other Hampton Inns, this is a reliable, no frills hotel. The lower end of the Hilton line, it offers a convenient place to stay for business or pleasure and is not meant to be a destination but a place to hang your hat while you're on the road. It is reasonably priced and a good value. More
