Clean rooms and great location
We went to the Hampton Inn in late October. Here are reasons why I liked this hotel: 1) The rooms were cozy and comfortable, even though they were rather small. 2) The service was helpful and friendly. 3) The location is near many attractions such as, two subway stations (the red line and the blue line), The Village, SOHO, Chinatown, and NoLita. 4) The beds were very soft and comfortable. 5) There was a nice view of the Empire State Building. 6) There is a clean workout room on the lowest floor, even though we did not use it. 7) Breakfast is included. You can make your own waffles that taste very good. At night, you can stop at the front desk to get a free cookie. This is a good place to stay for people who want to explore more than the touristy parts of New York.
