"all the staff were consistently professional, friendly, attentive, so refreshing! On my last night a whole group of school aged kids were placed on my floor and they were very loud early. I was so impressed how the 10 PM quiet hour was adhered to. I believe the staff was responsible for the success of this! I am an honors member and was treated very well, will definitely stay again and we'll stay at Hamptons in the future whenever possible"
