Overall, Hampton Inns in US are marginally better than the equivalent Marriott brand.
Personally, when traveling for business I would only stay in Hampton Inn if there is no full service Hilton nearby. Then the Hampton is typically a miss than a hit. Some of those hotels would have popcorn sealing, tired furniture, sheets that scratch your body, and somewhat minimal breakfast.
What is popcorn sealing?
