DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT stay at this hotel.

DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT stay at this hotel. I normally have great experiences with Hampton Inn which is why I chose this hotel on our drive back home, in fact my son and I stayed at a Hampton Inn in Toledo the night previous and it was fantastic. The pool was closed due to "Maintenance" which was false. They just didn't have staff to take care of towels etc. The main door was never locked at night. There were paint chips on the floor in both the room and the hallway. It smelled like wet dogs everywhere. They also charged $150 for incidentals which I thought was out of the ordinary but they also then charged me the same fee as hotels.com and if you try to call them at the front desk best of luck. So I was charged twice. Days after I would try calling and all I would get is a busy signal so I finally just went straight to my bank and took care of it that way. After reading their reviews through this site and google I wish I had checked before booking but it was late, we were tired and hungry. This hotel is an absolute embarrassment to the Hilton franchise. I should have had better instincts when my son said "Dad we are the only car in the parking lot." I wish I could give less than a one star rating on this. I normally never complain and make the best of a given situation but I can't imagine being there with a young family.

Not the greatest stay.

I specifically booked this hotel because it had a hot tub and we were looking forward to using it after a long travel day. The entire pool area was closed, so that was very disappointing. Also, the hotel seemed a little run down and the breakfast was sub par. Not up to the normal standards of a Hampton Inn.

Jose and staff were very helpful and friendly. The property had some deficits, no access to pool or computer. Parking lot maintenance was long overdue. Sign on front of building needs repair. Lose the derelict vehicles. Though not Hampton's fault, someone should cut down weeds on neighboring property to better see the Hampton sign on approach to property. Overall, though the facility fulfilled our needs. Thank you.

This was one of the worst places ive ever stayed. The pool was not working, there were people in the courtyard being loud till almost 2 am. Our phone didn't work to call the front desk, one day the 1st floor button didn't work on the elevator so i thought i was trapped inside asked for more towels, after almost 2 hours i tracked down a maid. Just very unhappy and the staff could have cared less. Only good thing, parking was easy and it waz easy to find

The staff was friendly. Our room was ok. Bathtub took 20 mins to drain after a shower. The pool was closed, which was not good!! The reason I booked here was the indoor pool and it was close to the venue we were in town for. Continental breakfast was mediocre.
