They run out of bananas often, and the pool and hot tub are closed frequently for service. Otherwise I've never been disappointed. Location is good, there is a fridge and a microwave in the room, the lights all work, the room is clean and the bed comfortable. It is just a Hampton Inn.
That is the truth, isn't it? It certainly puts things in perspective. I did like my room and the location was perfect but not being able to check in (especially after the long drive from Durham) and those breakfast bags rubbed me the wrong way. Perhaps I was a little too harsh though.
