Hampton Inn

This is some previous hotel that went out of business. I travel a lot and stay at a lot of hotels. This is a poor excuse for a Hampton Inn. Checked in, was greeted by a snotty front desk clerk that assumed since we were there for a car show that we were trouble. We came with 5 cars 2 14’s, 2 13’s and a clean 08. A lot of money in late model modified cars. Right away she started with last year «you guys made a lot of noise» and just went on about how bad last year was. We’ll guess what, this was our first time for this car show! Never have been to this location for this venue. And I tell you what, it will be our last time staying here for the meet if we come in the future. I poured about $ 1200 into a 2 night stay in that location. How Hilton even puts their name on this defunct previous low name chain is crazy. I always stick with Marriott or Hilton when traveling. Just because of the quality standards. I am the first to say you get what you pay for and am far from cheap. Otherwise I would of stayed at the Super 8 next door, it looked newer, and since this recent expensive lodging, I will never stay at this Hampton Inn again, not even for free! We checked in after being lectured and talked down to by a bunch of trailer park trash, middle of no where, almost felt «like the hills have eyes» for about 30 mins. Keep in mind not one, hello, welcome to Hampton Inn, how was your drive, not one customer friendly or service talk at all! None! Zippo! Nada! We were treated like hooligans. I came down with my 2 sons and 3 of their friends. Was a family outing. This was a $ 69 dollar a night room we paid $ 133 for. And we had 2 rooms. Never a mention of their amenities, local attractions, meals nothing! The room was a step, step above a crappy upgraded Super 8. Toilet seat was broken, only one hinge attached to the bowl. Obviously it isn’t cleaned because it would of been noticed immediately when cleaning, as soon as you lift the lid it was falling to the side, good thing it was noticed before sitting! The A/​C unit sounded like a gas powered generator when it kicked in and out. The corner chair was really no better then a folding chair, no recliner, small sofa, nothing but like a dining chair in the corner. If you wanted to sit and kick your feet up, the bed was the only option. The other very disgusting part was the sink or tub drained. If you as much turned the water on to wet your toothbrush, it was filling up. The shower, I never use a bath, I’m a shower person. Well while you turned the water on to get to your temperature, there was already a 1″ of water. By the time you were done showering you were standing in 4″ of water. With 3 people to a room, it was gross to stand in someone else’s shower water! The hallway was like a sauna, obviously cutting hvac costs.
Like a said this is some previous Super 8 style hotel that was cheaply thrown together, with not a one customer friendly staff member. The service was not even one star. I gave the 1 star for the breakfast. That was decent, good choices and was to be expected, hot choices, cereals, baked goods, fruit, juices, and a waffle iron.
I would go keep on driving past here if you are looking for quality friendly place.

This is a usual Hampton Inn.
Location is horrible
There is only fast food nearby — hence the check in at Taco Bell.
No real problems just a remote area — which I dislike.
Nice touch giving a loofa for the shower. Was first hilton property that provided one.

We had stayed at two Hampton Inns previously on this particular trip. Those two other locations were excellent and the reason we decided to stay here for a night. This location did NOT live up to the Hampton Inn standard. There were long hairs all over the bathroom floor — clearly not swept or mopped, making me wonder if the carpet had even vacuumed (ever?). There was mold on the ceiling above the shower, not surprising because of clear ventilation issues. Probably a sign of an outdated building because the room didn’t have a wall tstat like normal, it had the old school HVAC. The rooms had all the Hampton Inn stuff, but just wasn’t up to par. The staff was still friendly and the breakfast was good. Will avoid next time.

This is a poor excuse for a Hampton Inn. I travel a lot for work and try to only stay at Hampton or the Marriott because I know the quality is high and my money is well spent. This place is neither high quality or worth the money! I think Hilton Co recently bought this hotel from another company and transformed it into a Hampton because it’s not at all like any other Hampton I’ve stayed at before. They have made updates that are standard at all Hampton Inns ie: beds, bathroom furnishings, TV, lobby but that’s it. The AC unit, carpets, doors, blackout shades, and walls look like the standard el crappo motel next door: and seem to have been there for an eternity (totally gross). The place is hardly insulated either, I could hear someone’s alarm clock going off at 6am (not what a person wants when they arrived at 3am), I’m pretty sure you could hear a fly sneeze through the walls. I should’ve known when I was asked if I wanted a smoking room, as most Hampton Inns don’t allow smoking in the rooms. Well this place stunk like old cigarettes and stale smoke throughout, the smell kept me from sleeping well. When somebody was smoking you could smell it through the whole place. I’m not some radical but in 2013 where smoking is taboo I don’t understand why Hilton Co would allow smoking inside their hotel. I am a very athletic person, CrossFitter, and triathlete; so the last thing I want to smell is stale cigarette smoke. I expect much higher standards when I search for a Hampton Inn. If I knew the place was like this I would’ve kept driving north to Cincinnati. Get it together Hampton Inn

I believe the hotel was undergoing a remodel while I was visiting as there were chairs lined up near the entrance covered and there appeared to be men at breakfast living and working on the hotel.
The room was clean and quiet but there was nothing that special about the room. The breakfast wasn’t the best Hampton breakfast I’ve had but maybe that was because I didn’t come down to breakfast until 9 am.
For an odd reason, the rate was much higher than the surrounding hotels so be sure to look around before you buy as they are all clustered together.
