Hampton Inn by Hilton Fort Smith

8/10 Good

"My room was nice and clean but, it smell a little moldy. The coffee making needs cleaning before use but the amenities was good. Staff was friendly and kind."

StarLab '86 -Downtown Pet Friendly

10/10 Excellent

"This time around, we stayed in the Space Lab 86. It was awesome!!!! Last time we stayed in the Pirate themed one, awesome too. The creativity put into these themed rentals is spectacular. The bed in the Star Lab was so cozy and comfortable that I just wanted to stay awake and enjoy the moment. The roll down blackout shade in the master bedroom was handy when we had a thunderstorm roll in during the early morning hours. The old school arcade games were the biggest bonus and kept my husband entertained for a goodly amount of time. The location is great for downtown eateries. The parking is superior and accommodated our truck with the 16 foot cargo trailer. I was also able to park my Highlander on the concrete drive in front. Duke, our dog, loves staying here too because there is plenty of room for his bed and the air conditioner keeps him cool. The kitchen is well appointed with coffee maker, fridge, sink, toaster, microwave oven, and full sized stove/oven. Rating: 10/10 Sensational! Definitely don’t pass up the opportunity to stay here."
