Very overpriced given hotel undergoing renovation and our room was dated. Noise from utility workers who were staying at the hotel. Rude. Loud when going to their rooms at night and they all seemed to let doors slam at 6 am when leaving. One of two elevators in service.

My room was clean, and staff was friendly. My complaint is that there was no hot water! After an 18hr day I just wanted a hot shower and that didn't happen. I notified the front desk, and they were willing to adjust my room rate, however since I booked thru Expedia, they could not do that. They admitted that they have a hot water issue during some of the renovations. I was frustrated to pay full rate and get ripped on what I was looking forward to. Overall, other that no hot water everything was fine.

The stuff of hotel is very helpful. The location is perfect fitting our travel purpose. The bkfst is pretty good. But the WiFi is a joke. My iPad can link to hhoner WiFi, but can’t connect to internet. I have tried in the lobby and room. Both location is the same. A side note is facility is under going remodeling of hotel rooms. I did not see this when booking. Although there is a note on elevator door allowing refund for canceling reservation, but since we were already there it’s too late to cancel. Newly remodeled bathroom leaves dust on the furnitures.

Where do I even start. Booked two of the large king suite rooms. Total was $279 per room. Was traveling from Florida and after 800 miles of driving, we were ready to relax. The hotel said they were overbooked. They stuck me in a handicap accessible standard queen room, and the other person in my party in a standard queen room. Said the cost of the room was the same as the large king suite which of course makes ZERO sense. No refund. So i paid for 2 rooms and didnt get them. The toilets in both rooms had fecal streaks in the bowls and one had urine all over the bowl. Front desk said they had an issue with housekeeping. The regular queen room had pubes in the shower. PUBES. Its obvious that the bathrooms were never cleaned. People slam their doors all night. Yelling at thier kids up and down the hallway. It was just an overall terrible stay and terrible experience. Plenty of other hotels that are cleaner and better condition. This place was amongst the worst places ive ever stayed and they ripped me off on the rooms.

I've stayed here a few times. It's a good stop for it's location, but the building is starting to get a little older and in need of repair in a few spots. The bathrooms could be cleaner, for sure... Not a fan of mold, soap scum and hair in the showers. Had a couple times where the room didn't have hot eater. The Texas Steakhouse next door is pretty terrible, too. Probably eat elsewhere.

This hotel is undergoing renovations, which is fine, but it is not fine to have a filty hotel. We walked into our room, the bathroom was filty and there was a layer of sticky scum on all surfaces. The door was dirty, and got my white shirt streaked with black grim. We asked for a different room, and the room we got was not much better, but doable for 1 night. There were dirty foot prints and handprints all over the floor and walls, especially in the elevator. Would never stay there again. Reminded me of a Motel 6. Terrible

Stay was fine but we were shocked by the size of the bathroom. We’ve stayed at so many of your hotels and never have we encountered such a small, almost impossible to unpack in, bathroom. It was clean but unfortunately, it was not very comfortable to use. Also, there was an odd smell when we entered the room but it wasn’t terrible. Everything else was fine.

Our room was dirty, like the kind of hotel where you don’t want to walk barefoot in your own room. The musty smell every time we walked in was awful. It was humid feeling despite the AC running. No fan in the bathroom and the gross stains in the tub had my kid showering in her crocs. The room was also tiny, we had a double bed room and you couldn’t sit at the little desk and be able to walk past. We had to get our keycard reprogrammed twice, just stopped functioning. I bought a snack bag of Doritos from the little convenience stop, paid $3.00 and tossed them they were too stale to eat. Overall not a good experience. The only good was that any interactions with staff were always pleasing, very kind and friendly.

We ended up having them cancel our reservation because they had no CLEAN rooms available. They had empty rooms that showed as available to book, but they were still dirty from the night before. They had construction happening and for some reason that would have caused housekeeping to go into overtime, which they would not allow. They assured that we would receive a refund but that hasn’t happened. We also used all our keys cash so that was wasted. The front desk person, Donna, was awesome, none of this was her fault. After attempts to get in touch with management she finally heard back from the youngest/newest manager-Jazmine- who called other hotels to see who had availability. Very disappointed in losing our $150 plus keyscash as well as the balance on our credit card. Don’t recommend this location!!

I checked in, was given a room number and keys. When I got to the room, the keys would not work. It was just me and my three kids, so I asked housekeeping if they could let me in so I could get my kids settled and then go down to the front desk to get the key situation resolved. Upon entering the room, I was greeted with guests who were already in their room. When I went back down to the desk, she asked my name again and said, sorry I was one room off. Not only was I mortified, but the other guest’s privacy was compromised. I find this to be extremely unacceptable.

Even though my reservation was prepaid. No hot water in the room! Outside there were 1000's of cigarette butts everywhere along with garbage. When I checked out their systems were still down so im concerned I'll get double charged. Front desk receptionists were very nice and helpful.

Hampton Inns are generally consistent for comfort, and this property was no exception. However, there was an odd, mechanical smell in the entry and corridor of main floor rooms (not in the room, thank goodness) — sort of a mixture of diesel and machined metal. I’m very sensitive to smells; it was there when we arrived and when we checked out the next day. We stayed at a Hampton Inn in Dobson, NC the week prior, and the breakfast was far superior to this location. Here, the oatmeal was undercooked and watery, and the ‘sausage’ was fried lunch meat. On the plus side, check-in was easy and quick, and all staff was courteous, friendly, and efficient.
