1. Breakfast was good but so busy we had to wait for food to be cooked. 2.The jets on the hot tub are too low to be effective after a long day at the Ark which was fabulous. 3. Location was awesome for anyone going to the Ark Encounter.

It was an amazing visit to the Ark experience. The staff at the Hampton did SO much to help our stay. I have cancer and the hotel staff made sure we were on the first floor. They also gave us a room right near an exit and answered all of our questions about transportation and parking.

The staff was amazing but breakfast was nit good for the price you pay per night and they charge to park in their lot even though you are a guest of the hotel. I have never heard of a hotel charging to park.

What I liked: The hotel fitness room gym was one of the best I've experienced; Extremely convenient to Ark Encounter; Free coffee and tea; Was clean and service was friendly. What I didn't like: The sink and shower drains were slow and filled up; the shower leaked alot, out onto the bathroom floor; we had to pay $7.50 per day just to park at the hotel; the patio fire pit was broken; meager selection for breakfast.
