This was a Hampton Inn, which is equivalent to a holiday inn IMO. It's still a hilton property but... Not top tier. I've seen it in a Hilton proper as well though. Seems so odd to me.

Oh, yeah. Hampton I'm less sure about.

The way I see it, none of us should be surprised. Motel 6 can be 45.99 a night. Hampton runs to 120-150, Hilton more than that. The price differential does mean something, and I don't think the somewhat nicer furniture and existence of an indoor pool is quite enough to cover it.

They're sacrificing something. Quality of service and cleanliness are probably it.
