"We've stayed at this property before. We stayed in an accessible room and it was the same as the last time. It also had the same issue...the heater. It take at least 2 hours for the heat to go from 66 degrees to 72 degrees. And yes, I had someone come and take a look again. Also, I informed the front desk at check out and the lady in my had also mentioned she had the same issue for the heating. Something to think about Hampton Inn."

"We received minimal information about property access and area and directions to room . Area to room was poorly lit and unmarked. Unit appeared clean but notes were seen that you could only plug certain things to certain outlets. Instructed to use coffee pot near bathroom sink. Water and electricity dont mix !!!! Additional rental room was connected to the one we rented and there were people in this room arguing very loudly and violently with a young Baby screaming. Very scary !! Contacted owner...

"We we not even sure we had gotten the right room. The beds were not queen size like in the reservation. 1 made a terrible amount of noise when you moved around on it. The cleanliness was questionable. The pool had very limited hours but looked clean. Overall a NO frills place."

"Bathroom smell so musty that I must keep it closed at all time. I’d spend as little time as possible in there. Perhaps main floor rooms are used more Often may not smell like the 2nd floor bathroom. They renovated the motel to be an inn, it’s decent but the carpet was kind of dirty when I walked in. Very strong ordor of odor spray that was def a turn off. 2 Chinese, Vietnamese and pizza across the street was def plus. However I won’t stay there again cause I prefer a nicer name brand hotel.

"Terrible! Dialup would be a better option than the “guest” wifi. Very outdated rooms, including the window unit ac/heater directly from the 80’s. The provided breakfast is a joke. It’s a wide selection of TOAST. Hotel does not provide water to drink, even with breakfast. Instead, they kindly point you to the vending machine. To top it all off, you are also charged an additional parking fee of $12...for what?! Get your $’s worth and stay at the holiday inn next door. "

"The young lady at the front desk seemed miserable and unapproachable. Luis, was great! He worked the breakfast shift on Christmas Eve. The suite I stayed in was very dated. The suite was not cleaned upon my arrival. Arm chair, sofa and coffee table was stained, dirty and old. I had to buy 3 Glade air fresheners to get rid of old smells. I did have a good time here but that front desk worker as I mentioned above was not helpful and needs to be retrained . "
