We stayed there many times before and were always happy. We were very disappointed with the conditions this time, room didn’t meet their usual standards and hallways needed to be vacuumed and cleaned. Breakfast was so-so. It seems that facility needs some work and updates to the rooms. The lady that checked us in was very helpful and personable. She definitely is a plus for there facility.

I stay at a variety of Hotels in the area for work on a regular basis and decided to try this one. Upon checking in and going to my room I was suddenly hit by the smell of " Wet Dog" the room smelled so bad immediately went down to the front desk and told the person and they switched rooms for me and apologized. The person was very good about this with a good sense of customer service. I went up to the new room and it smelled just as bad. I ended up leaving and re-booking with another hotel. this Hotel is pet friendly and has carpets. Not a good combination. The lady at the front desk was nice and understood, However I did loose some of my money on this because they said I had "checked in". I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Disappointed

We were staying there for our anniversary. We had stayed there several times before. In fact we stayed there on one of our very first trips together. We were really looking forward to staying there again. However this time we were very disappointed. We didn’t get the same room we had stayed in. There was a terrible smell in the hallway leading to our room which smelled like dirty diapers. The heater in our room didn’t heat the entire room so bathroom was cold. There was wax caked on table.The Chaise lounger chair was obviously stained and hadn’t been cleaned. The furniture was uncomfortable and put in an area where you couldn’t ev see the TV. We ended up moving the furniture just so we could see the TV. The TV was smaller than what we were used to, and not adjustable so we couldn’t really watch TV in bed. Breakfast options weren’t anything to write home about. We ended up going out for breakfast every day because of this. it was obvious they were doing some renovations. I encourage them to reach out to their customers for input on what they would like to see. The TVs need to be bigger and need to be adjustable. The furniture needs to be comfortable and set up in a way that you can actually see the TV. The furniture needs to be comfortable and cleaned regularly. The breakfast options really need to be better . Coffee needs to be better. Mattresses and pillows need to be more comfortable, and the heating system needs to be able to heat the entire room, including the bathroom..

The toilet wouldn’t flush. The dead bolt on the door was broken. They had no towels, only one towel in the room and we had 4 people. No towels at the pool either. Went down for breakfast at 7:30 and mostly everything was gone and they said they have a limited amount of what they set out everyday even though there was still 2 and a half hours of “breakfast” left. Luckily the staff was very friendly and apologetic, otherwise, I’d rate this hotel a zero.

The hotel.itself wasnt super clean. Sticky spills on the floor of the elevator and a sticky spill on the floor of ous room. The first room we got was very musty smelling and tiles broke off in the bathroom. We did ask for a different room and the guy at the desk was great and gave us a new room. The continental breakfast had nothing at 8:30 and another gueat was told nothing would be added.

Nightmare in Portland, Maine

I booked a 3 night stay for my husband and I, having not had a getaway without children in 21 years. So, not an expensive trip, to be sure, but it was supposed to be special. It was definitively not special. This motel was in a state of disrepair unlike any hotel I’d ever seen. Not only was this the worst Hampton Inn I’d ever stayed in, I believe it was the worst hotel I’d ever stayed at. Just awful. Dirty, dingy, wallpaper coming off in many places, caulking falling off and moldy in spots as well, the entrance to the hotel was so unkempt as to appear as though it hadn’t been so much as swept in a long time. Just very uninviting. Once in our room, which was small for a typical Hampton Inn, we had to call the front desk for basics such as wastebaskets, ice buckets, tv channel guide, and more. The hot tub was broken one of the days, and when it was working again, the tub was slimy and water was very cloudy. It also wasn’t even “hot”, and cooled off quickly. Our room was never cleaned during our stay, the mattress was lumpy and deeply in need of a replacement. On top of all this, I had used my rewards credit to pay for this disaster, which had accumulated to $179.00. Although in no way at all do I hold Hotels.com responsible for our experience, I am heartbroken to have lost my rewards credits on this disastrous experience.
