We often stay at a Hampton when we are traveling from one location to another because we have always been pleased. Not so much this time. I should have been leery after seeing 8.2 rating reviews when most Hamptons are 8.8 or higher.
First, the good things. Breakfast eating area is bright, cheery, and inviting. Breakfast staff friendly. This area can be seen from the lobby and was spic and span. Location was also a plus for easy on/off from highway.
Now for some of the issues. Room smelled smoky, very unpleasant. My shoes stuck to the floor where there wasn’t carpeting. Upon check in, staff was not friendly, not unpleasant or mean, just not friendly. One person was on her phone while the other one checked us in using a robotic manner. Upon check-out, a different desk person was on her phone and barely established eye contact. This Inn was very highly priced compared to other ones in the vicinity, so overall, not worth the extra $$.
