Hampton Inn & Suites Benton Harbor

Hampton Inn & Suites Benton Harbor

8/10 Good
"The room was clean, my shampoo didn’t work though, so I used my back up shampoo. We didn’t ask for any room cleanings during our stay. Pool was great for the kids, there was periods of rain so it worked out. Parking was fine and we got spots next to the building. Breakfast we attended everyday to feed our two young kids, was happy with that. The area though seemed sketchy, so many homeless near by, they literally stare into your car as you are driving in. There seems to be an old road that they closed down so you see the homeless riding bikes into closed street. Not walkable to anything, you need to drive."

"Our stay was excellent. This was out first time there and it didn't disappoint. My only suggestion would be that you make sure that you bring an extension cord with multiple outlets on that cord. There are only a few outlets in the tent, so extension cords would be very helpful. Other than that, I highly recommend this place."

"We really enjoyed our time here you could see the beach from the parking spots and the whole walk down to the beach. The place was clean and fot our needs for a family of 4 just fine! Our boys enjoyed the bunkbeds and having room to play in the evening. The heated pool made up for the cooler days we had while there and was a nice addition! The walk is quite steep down to the beach but manageable.. the addition of a golf cart would've made our stay 5 star across the board! But we got to enjoy the beach and the pool and the quite living around us which is what we needed for this trip relaxation, water, and quieter surroundings and thats what we got and it was totally worth it! Will look to return to either this one or another one of the condo rentals next summer!"
