I flew into Orange County (John Wayne) Airport to attend my 50th High School Reunion. I picked Hampton due to it's proximity to the airport, its airport shuttle service, and reasonable price. I really enjoyed my stay. This hotel feels like it's brand new. Contemporary styling and young staff.
The room was a bit small but it had everything. I enjoyed the feature of a single barn door that serves both the closet and bathroom. The room was quiet and the bed was perfect, not too soft or hard.
Breakfast was better than most places. A meat (bacon and two types of sausage), eggs (scrambled or omelet), and potatoes were carried each day. They also had waffles, toast, cereals, fruit, and yogurt. Complement to the chief and wait staff.
The location is also within walking distance to several restaurants including El Toritto which has great margaritas and daily happy hour.
