Hampton Inn Hotel

Stayed here while in town for a gaming convention our store represented at. Have stayed at Hamptons before– this was about on the same level.
LOCATION: Near restaurants, the hospital if you are visiting someone, as well as close to football stadium if needing a place when seeing a game!
AMENITIES: really the same deal as any other Hampton inn — clean rooms, breakfast free, nice staff. Room had two beds — which were doubles not queens– as the room wasn’t the size they usually have in Hampton inns but there it is.
ROOMS: Clean but a little on the small side. Wasn’t a big deal just not as big as what I’m used to.
FOOD: Breakfast was a nice touch but the seating was quite small– had to take back up to room.
Recommended whichever the need is. Give this place a stay especially if you are a Hilton Rewards Member!

The Good: old looking on the outside — updated on the inside. Right next to WVU and all the happenings in Morgantown. Staff was mostly friendly (I’ll get to that below) and overall I had a good sleep. Shower had great pressure and was very hot — always a good thing!
The use of small room space & inventive desk & wardrobe was kinda cool. The Venetian blinds were a nice touch, too.
The Meh: Bad calcium deposits in the shower — not dirty but dirty looking and very obvious. The mattress was quite worn and needs replacing — still suitable but for those looking for a firm bed — not-​so-​much. Breakfast bar was slightly below average compared to other Hampton Inns. Not bad — but I’ve seen better. No shampoo in the bathroom — but two conditioner bottles. Front desk brought up some so they did right by me.
The Bad: This was my third consecutive night at a Hampton Inn (all different). I was not received as a HHonors Member and when I asked if my double-​bed room could be bumped to a King she tried to charge me. MOST (not all) tend to comp this to me and I was a bit miffed. Upon my insistence — she refused. Honestly, I don’t expect if a hotel is sold out to «give» me anything. But it wasn’t and I wasn’t so after spending three straight nights in a Hampton — I honestly will stay in a Holiday Inn next time just to put some distance in it for me. All it takes is that one time …
TV — OMG this thing sucked! Owners cheap’d out with only Showtime as «paid» cable and the rest was a mix of ANTENNA & standard (non-​HD) cable fair. Tiny 32″ craptacular LG of course.
Price — pretty high for a Tuesday night ($ 110+ with a highly discounted corporate rate as it was). So for a ‘regular’ traveler it might sting a bit too much.
Summary — if I come back to Morgantown, WV it’s a coin flip if I stay here again.

One matter and certainly no fault with Hampton is that if you are using a GPS device, particularly a Tom Tom, it can be somewhat tricky to find since the address location as certain GPS devices will lead you to a position nearly a mile down the road from the actual location, so beware on that point.
As far as the hotel itself, I found the interior and general décor somewhat tired and in need of some sprucing up. Things like worn, stained carpets, elevators that only seem to be intermittently operative and nonfunctional ice machines. I know I had to leave my fifth floor to use the fourth floor ice machine as the fifth floor machine seemed to be more of a cold water dispenser than it was an ice machine.
The complimentary breakfast was rather Hampton standard, but good and the staff friendly, helpful and accommodating.

I have been here 5 times now always clean quiet and treated like I am one of the family

Very nice stay at Hampton Inn in Morgantown WV on November 24, 2012. Clean room, instant access to Internet, nice breakfast. No complaints.

I used a coupon from a Travel Saver magazine here. The staff was great, the room spotless and the breakfast was wonderful. The décor in the lobby and dining area was the best I have seen in a hotel of this class.

We have been traveling across the country for 10 days and had a good experience at the hampton inn’s in 2 other cities so decided to try it hear. This particular Hampton does not live up to the Hampton name. Rooms are small no room to move around. Shower and bathtub were stained dirty and rusty and drains in sink and tub did not work. Their were 4 of us and the biggest room they have was a room with 2 double beds. NO pool or spa. Breakfast was good but that was about all that was good about this experience. Definitely not for family’s hotel filled with college students who stay there year round.

It’s a typical Hampton Inn, so they are all pretty much 3 stars. This place lost a star because my iron leaked water from the bottom. This made ironing very difficult. My «clean» towels had a long curly in it when i unfolded it. I usually look at a towel before I bring it to my face, just in case.
The wireless internet speed was ok. Not too much lag.
Staff was friendly.

I stayed here alone for one night when visiting family. I booked with Hampton Inn because of their loyalty program (Hilton), I get airline miles.
LOCATION: Morgantown is a smaller town, so staying just about anywhere should be fine. The hotel is located across the street from at least parts of the main state college.
STAFF: The staff was pleasant, my interactions with them was limited. They did not offer bell hop service, but did direct me to a cart where I had to haul my own stuff.
ROOM: The room had it’s positives and negatives. The furniture was rather worn, more than I would expect. The bed however was quite nice, this is what I care most about. I was very tired and slept well.
One notable drawback on the room is the plumbing. Part of the bathroom ceiling is open and covered only with open plastic grids. If you look up, you can see the plumbing and drains running above.
This is not a big deal except when someone flushes on the floor above. The first couple times this happened, I jumped up because it really sounded like a pipe had burst and a small tidal wave was heading my direction. Closing the bathroom door did dull the sound somewhat.
AMENITIES: The wi-​fi internet offered worked great with no problems. Speeds were at least consistent with DSL. I was able to use my VPN and surf the web without problems.
The hotel offers a limited breakfast in the morning. This included biscuits, eggs and sausage. I was in a hurry, but tried to put together a sandwich. The eggs looked unappealing, I made a sausage and biscuit sandwich which did the job of putting something in my stomach in the morning.
OVERALL: When price shopping hotels, all appeared about the same. I chose this hotel due to their loyalty program and probably would stay here again if I return. Another relative in town stayed at the Euro Suites, which she said was nice and she was able to negotiate a lower rate from them. If I had been able to get a lower rate on a comparable hotel, I would have stayed there. If all things are the same, the Hampton Inn should work fine if you are looking for a clean and comfortable place to stay.
