I am a regular guest at this friendly property and I have a lot of affection for it. Roughly halfway between Las Cruces & Tucson and also between Albuquerque & Phoenix it has, on multiple occasions, been an happy and relaxing overnight stop for me during long Southwestern drives. I agree with a previous reviewer that the guest rooms feel a bit faded and I was surprised to learn from the manager that the hotel was built as recently as 2010. The rooms seem older than that with their orange and brown carpets and drapes. But, no matter! The cheerful, welcoming staff more than make up for that, as does the colorful and sunny lobby and breakfast area. The complimentary breakfast is above average. During my most recent visit bacon, potatoes, and small omelettes were available, as well as the usual bagels, muffins, oatmeal, etc., and the lady running the breakfast bar was particularly welcoming and friendly. For me, the really big plus of this Hampton Inn is its location and ease of use. It sits very close to the I-10 interchange but (especially if you request a rear-facing rooms), there is little or no highway traffic noise in the room. In fact, the rooms are unusually quiet and peaceful. And, a special but very welcome bonus: when I arrived the other evening, around 4 pm, coffee and warm cookies were waiting in the lounge! Now, that’s a nice treat. One friendly suggestion for an improved visitor experience: all Hampton Inns seem to do this, so I’m not picking on you. Why do you have pop/rock radio and the TV playing at the SAME time — but on different stations — during breakfast? We like to enjoy your nice breakfast in peace. With both a TV and a radio on, you can’t isten to either, and the resulting hubbub is irritating. The multi-directional sounds are, I imagine, difficult on guests with noise sensitivity or PTSD. Despite the media’s efforts, traveling folks really don’t need to be bombarded by programming every minute of the day. How about muting the TV and trying out some quiet classical or ambient music on the lobby radio? I promise you that will result in calmer and happier traveling guests : ) Overall, another very pleasant stay. Thank you Hampton Inn Lordsburg! See you next time.
