On Thursday morning, Hampton Inn Area General Manager Damon Priddy and Housekeeping Manager Kayla Eimer took a dive into the pool at the Hampton Inn, fully clothed in their daily workwear. It was done as a reward to the housekeeping staff at the Inn for their job well done.

In October, Priddy and Eimer set a goal to increase their hotel's cleanliness score by two percent. The increase would get the local Hampton over the threshold of top 20 percent of the cleanest hotels in the Hampton by Hilton brand.

Priddy said that the Hampton and Holiday Inns in Lincoln, both under his management, are very aware of the need to present a clean and comfortable environment for guests. He's quite proud of how his teams work to assure the guests are happy and impressed with their rooms and the amenities of the hotels.

“When I set the goal for our team," Priddy said, "I knew they could make it! We have a great team of hard working individuals working for Hampton that ensures day in and day out that our guests are more than satisfied. We remain the No. 1 rated property in Lincoln (TripAdvisor.com). I am proud of all they do, and we couldn’t do it without our fantastic team!”

Priddy also complimented Eimer, who has been the head of housekeeping since July of this year, saying she is a great leader.
