I like to write happy reviews, aand I LOVE Hampton inns, but I just cannot say very much about this Hampton Inn.
The goods:
The location IS wonderful! The staff was friendly, the bathrooms were clean. I loved the balcony above the river of my room, I love that it had a fireplace.
The not so goods:
I booked my room via phone, because I was travelling, and though I had never been to this location, I know (or thought I knew) Hampton Inn is always a safe bet. The hotel is under construction, I realize I am there off season, and they have to do the work some time, but I was beat, and had they told me when I inquired about the room, that they were working on the room, I would not have stayed there. They started the work early, and of course it was loud and woke me up. I did not get to drive all day and sleep in as I had planned. That made for a bad day.
The fireplace did not work, I called the front desk, they sent a man up to fix it. It was very nice, unitl I turned it off when I left the room to eat, and it would not come back on. I wasn't going to mess with it, I can get mean when I am tired, and the desk people were so nice, I did not want to be mean to them.
The breakfast was medicore.No meat, no cinnamon rolls. The omlette was burnt, the toast did not fit in the toaster. I was not impressed.
I passed 30 hotels with the same amineties, and cheaper priced to get to the Hampton Inn. I am thinking that I cannot just trust the name Hampton to mean great anymore. That really complicates my life, and makes me sad.
Room Tip: Hmm. Don't stay until renovations have been complete.
