Scene
Charming, classic hotel
Guests expecting a run-of-the-mill chain hotel will be pleasantly surprised by this Hampton Inn. The property offers all the basics of a chain hotel -- including a fitness center and a business center -- but features elegant, classic decor with lots of wood and a few Southern touches. The lobby is a large, bright space with wooden floors, dark wood paneled pillars, plush rugs, plenty of seating, and a brick fireplace. Exposed brick walls and vintage touches, such as a rotary telephone and classic ceiling lamps, add some historic charm to the common spaces.
