Disgusting
The staff were super rude. Our tub looked like someone defecated in it, the curtains were ripped, the curtain vance was falling off the wall, the linens were stained. And what hotel doesn’t have a roll away cot? We were a party of five that specifically requested a room with a couch and they lied and said they didn’t have rooms with a couch. But the person in line to complain to the staff was there specifically because the linens on their pull out couch were dirty. 0/10 do not recommend.

There were so many problems with this hotel: elevator didn’t work so we used the stairs often including carrying our things down at check out; none of the ice machines worked and none of the vending machines worked either; no housekeeping and we had to use pool towels on the second day for showers; no water pressure and the toilet clogged. This was the worst Hampton Inn I’ve ever been to!

Falling apart
I arrived at 3:45 and was told no room was ready and not given an estimated time. I checked the status of the room again at 4:30 and was finally given a room. Arrived up to the room with all luggage in tow only to realize the key card wasn’t working. In addition to that, this hotel is extremely run down and dirty. Rust stains in the tub look disgusting and curtains were stained with mold. No working ice machine or elevator at the hotel in addition to the vending machine being down. Major updates and repairs needed. Definitely not worth $165!!!!

Shalondra was fabulous, she handled all our needs and questions like a PRO. I’ve stayed at Hampton Inn before and assumed that this one would be as good as our previous experience. Was I ever wrong! I’m sure I will stay at Hampton Inn again in the future, but not this one. This hotel needs to close its doors and remodel the entire building. The place is dirty and worn out. The parking lot is dark, the room’s are dark (we stayed in two different rooms and both were dark - needing bulbs replaced) I offered to replace the bulbs but there were none available. The carpets are dirty, the beds are worn out, the exhaust fan in the bathroom is so loud it hurts. We did not have housekeeping but we wanted clean towels each day, well that never happened. I would have to go to the desk and ask for them and do you believe they never had any, what happened to the towels designated for this room? Twice they gave us pool towels or nothing at all. Breakfast was nothing to brag about either. The selection was poor but what they had was pretty good. The attendant must have had other duties because he wasn’t monitoring the food available. With much breakfast time still available, the attendant complained about preparing more food. I was not the only one complaining by far. I could go on and on but I doubt you’ll do what’s needed to bring this hotel up to snuff. Its obvious that the people who manage this hotel are pinching their penny’s. We won’t be staying here again!

Our room was clean but not comfortable. It was difficult to navigate in the room, the toilet did not work (unless I lifted the tank cover), and there was just one overly thick comforter on the bed giving us the options of being either too cold or too hot at night. The property is conveniently located off the highway, but the area around it is not nice at all.

We visited at a rough time, the oven was broken so no hot breakfast, the pool was out of order so no swimming, the ice machine on our floor was out of order and when my husband took 2 ice buckets the house keeper ask him if he thought he should be filling our cooler (literally 2 ice buckets). The fitness center has 3 machines and the treadmill was broken. I did let the front desk know there was mold on the shower curtain and it needed changed. The room was booked and only refundable until 48 hours before our stay. It could be a nice place to stay but I would call first to make sure everything is in working order.

This hotel is NOT equipped for people who stay more than one night. I had to rescan my key up to two times a day because it would just stop working. When the hotel was fully booked there was NO hot water. Took cold showers for 2 days. I NEVER had ANYONE clean my room or give me clean towels in 4 days! AND there were only two towels in the room for 3 people! When I asked for one more towel they told me they were on back order. My child had to use a flimsy pool towel that looked like a hospital towel for 4 days. Housekeeping poor. They NEVER cleaned out our garbage. I had to clean out our garbage cans and leave full bags by the door and use grocery bags to refill the garbage cans. No hospitality whatsoever!!!! Don’t stay here more than one night!!!!
