We really liked the Hampton Inn too. We stayed there in 2008. and the room looked like it had been recently renovated. The microwave and fridge, furniture, bedding, all looked new. The service was fantastic all around, from the kitchen staff to the front desk. There were popcorn and movie nights, pizza night, and cookies in the evening.
The complimentary breakfast in the morning was great in that it got us started in the morning quickly and we were off to the park in no time.
The hotel is located in Garden Grove in a Hilton hotel triplex. You'd have to drive or take the ART to DL. We drove and it was absolutely no problem. If you take the ART, the stop is in front of the Embassy Suites next door.
I think the Hampton Inn has implemented a parking charge now which didn't exist when we were there. So you may want to factor that into your hotel cost.
