Great stay at the Hampton Inn Downtown before our whale watching trip! The location couldn’t have been better — right across from the waterfront and a beautiful park, which made it perfect for walking around and enjoying the views. If it had a hot tub with the rooftop pool it would’ve been absolutely perfect, but overall it was a really comfortable and convenient stay.
