Clean room, staff was great!

Hampton Inn Omaha Midtown-Aksarben Area
Everything was good. Quiet, clean, good bed and pillows. Breakfast was good, but the forks and spoons were turned up in a cup so that you couldn’t grab one without touching the others where a person would put it in their mouths.

The room was large and clean. The motel smelled good, unlike several others in the area. The staff was pleasant but difficult to understand!

Tru By Hilton Omaha I-80 at 72nd Street, NE
It was clean, staff was friendly, lobby was nice especially for younger kids. I didn’t like not having a microwave or coffee pot in the rooms, and breakfast wasn’t until 7 on the weekends.
