This Hampton Inn is laid out like a typical hotel with rooms on the rectangular perimeter
and a long hallway down the middle. Structural shear walls are covered by architectural
precast panels. Guest rooms are afforded large windows in each room, and the suites are
aligned vertically down the center of the front façade. A large column of windows reveals
their location.
