    My boyfriend and I stayed at this hotel on a Thursday night in February, and we checked in after 10pm so things were very quiet. Parking was free which is unusual in Niagara Falls. Nice guy "Zeke?" at front desk checked us in and upgraded us to a room with a jacuzzi tub - a pink HEART-shaped Jacuzzi tub no less. (The room also had a fireplace but we didn't turn it on.) We grabbed some cookies and headed up to room on fifth (top) floor. After a long day of traveling we basically went straight to bed, in the always extremely comfortable Hampton Inn beds complete with a selection of soft and firm pillows to choose from.

    In the morning I did notice what somewhat sounded like a large friendly monster with indigestion. This turned out to be the elevator. We were one of the closest rooms but I really wouldn't say it disturbed us, although again the hotel seemed pretty empty so it wasn't making that many trips. If you think this might bother you, ask for a room away from the elevator. No big deal. Our room was very large and clean.

    The Hampton's free breakfast was great. They had a large dining room with a TV and we sat along the window as it was sunny out. Great coffee, waffles, large selection of pastries, etc. Very nice and what we have come to expect from Hampton's. Looking out the glass door from the buffet area was a shrub with lights on it where a large family of little winter wrens hung out. The nice woman who operated the buffet must have thrown out a muffin to them. It was sweet watching them have breakfast as we did. Oh! And they have a resident black Canadian squirrel who comes up and waits for breakfast there as well. Adorable!

    This property is NORTH of the falls, up where the river bends and the whirlpool ride is. Granted there was no traffic in February, but I did not find it to be too far or THAT far away; it was too cold to walk anywhere anyway. Plus, the other Hampton is in the old touristy part of town across from a water park. That might be great for travelers with kids, but we were very happy with our location. I would definitely recommend this property!

    Stayed here for 2 nights in June 2009.  The elevator made an annoying sound all weekend.  Also ran into several large groups of young little league players who liked to play in the elevators (esp. in the late evening).  Breakfast was adequate but not refilled often and the rooms were too overcrowded.  Rooms were clean.  One guest had trouble with the casino shuttle driver's attitude so we didn't bother to try to use the shuttle.
