Great hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 7/6/11
I wanted to keep costs as low as possible on my trip to Marion, but I did not want to compromise on safety because I am a female travelling alone. The Hampton fulfilled all my needs and I will be back.
I rented a king suite. My room had a microwave, mini fridge, big flat screen TV, and a wonderfully comfortable bed. My room was clean, the hotel seemed safe (definitely not a party hotel) and the staff was friendly. I was given coupons for 2 free drinks to use during the "evening social" which I did not get a chance to use. The hotel is in a good location near Wal-Mart, McDonald's, etc.
The room rates were great - the only hotels that were cheaper were Super 8 and a mom and pop place, neither of which had a microwave and fridge. I saved more than the price difference by renting this room and buying microwaveable food from Wal-Mart. I am going back to Marion, IL in a couple months and will stay at the Hampton again. No complaints at all!
