  • A very pleasant surprise an excellent bargain 12
  • plus service was great easy and and doubt rooms were very clean excellent value for our money On camera21:17
  • And in an expensive place like Anchorage, particularly bad value for money to boot. 15
  • I like Home2 Suites for travel with family, but I actually think it's intended to be more a budget option than Hampton Inn. The extra space is good and they tend to be newer so sometimes the rate will be higher. 13
  • Hilton Anchorage. Severely understaffed thru and since the pandemic. And in an expensive place like Anchorage, particularly bad value for money to boot. 15
  • My only complaints are the $ 10-a-night parking on-property fee, and the $75 safety fee, which I was not told about until I got there at the front desk. 12

  • The lady at the desk was very helpful, though, and we came to an agreement on it. 12
  • Housekeeping never came to change towels. Desk people were able to provide them. 12
  • The staff and room was amazing very friendly very helpful as well ! Would def come back if I was in Nashville again . Big shout out to all the staff truly you all were awesome !! 12
  • From that moment on I became mostly loyal to Hilton as I felt that a lot of the staff cared more than they did at Marriott during the time I was really traveling. 13
  • Bedding, rooms, etc are all very old and distressed. Staff is nice, I will say, but the hotel? Blech. 15
  • Consistently clean, decent service, free "breakfast" which may or may not be to your tastes. We've only had one bad Hampton experience out of literally hundreds of stays - Laramie, Wyoming. It was filthy and smelled like cigarettes. 13
  • Very clean staff friendly 12
  • the hotel has friendly and attentive staff clean common areas Hall rugs and my first floor room rugs had bad stains On camera21:27
  • Shuttle service was very useful for the conference I attended. 12

  • Breakfast was nothing special but sufficient. Very friendly staff 12
  • we were in town for an overnight charity event and we put in for late check out. We were guaranteed 1pm. When we arrived at our room, we put out the Do Not Disturb sign and crashed. Housekeeping was knocking on our door at 9am. It wasn't even regular checkout time. 😡 15

When we arrived at our room, we put out the Do Not Disturb sign and crashed. Housekeeping was knocking on our door at 9am. It wasn't even regular checkout time. 😡 15
  • Huber Heights, OH. Several years ago though. Broken doors, filthy floors. 15
  • The room seemed nice enough. Some housekeeping issues that I noticed and called down to the front desk to get resolved. 15
  • Everything was well cleaned, and the check-in process was smooth. 12

  • Filthy rooms, never updated in min.30yrs AC broken and the tech came to electrical tape 2 broken wires together to"connect it to power" 15
  • [na-delete] • 3 taon ang nakalipas We stay at Hamptons a lot - especially on road trips in the USA. There are also two Hamptons in NYC where we stay every time we are there. Consistently clean, decent service, free "breakfast" which may or may not be to your tastes. 13
  • The entirety of the hotel reeks of cigarettes because of the chain smoking receptionist and housekeeping staff. There were mysterious stains on the curtains and walls. The bathrooms had mold everywhere. It was disgusting. 15
  • The room was filthy and full of someone's things. They came and "cleaned" it as it was the last available room. 15
  • FDA refused to acknowledge the room was secured with corporate travel CC, despite my having the related documentation. She was also pretty bitchy through the check in process. 15
  • Staff is nice, I will say, but the hotel? Blech. 15
  • The following morning we found out the large bottles of conditioner and body wash attached to the wall were empty. We had 2 towels for three people. 15
  • Hilton at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia. Old, worn out, elevators don't work, housekeeping nonexistent, dirty showers, half the rooms out of service. 15
  • Stayed for one night prior to an early morning flight. This hotel is clean and comfortable. Staff was kind. 12
  • The entirety of the hotel reeks of cigarettes because of the chain smoking receptionist and housekeeping staff. 15
  • The morning FDA was apologetic and diligently noted each complaint, including stuff was small and petty, like not getting acknowledged as HHonors member at check in, regardless of status. 15
  • Clean room, friendly staff. Love that they have a shuttle from the airport and breakfast. 12
  • Front desk said "too bad, we are booked up, engineering can check it out in the AM". 15
  • Easy check in and check out, great shuttle available to the airport. 12
  • Clean room, nice shower. Helped with getting to and from the airport 12
  • When I pulled up, there was a guy who looked like jelly roll smoking a swisher with a tiny woman who looked like they were staying there on a bender ( and if that were the case, rock on. Do you)... it was the front desk lady and the guy working the bar/kitchen. And the three times I had to go to the desk, they were both absent for 15 plus min. 15
  • The room and the staff were amazing 12
  • The staff was very friendly. 12
  • Are these considered to be the more budget Hilton Brands? We stay at Hamptons a lot - especially on road trips in the USA. There are also two Hamptons in NYC where we stay every time we are there. Consistently clean, decent service, free "breakfast" which may or may not be to your tastes. 13

  • Engine customer Jun 2026 Also, she said they didn't have king room, only queen. Also, she said they didn't have king room, only queen. And she said if we are not agree, we can go to other hotel. This was absolutely incredible!!!!!!! 12
  • Room was decent (223), had a bit of a musty smell I chalked it up to the AC. 12
  • Hampton Inn, Perry FL. Got the last room, which had obviously been smoked in. Filthy surfaces everywhere, soiled sheets on the bed, dingy yellow towels, no soaps at all. 15
  • Clean room, nice shower. Helped with getting to and from the airport 12
  • FDA was still bitchy and unapologetic about the unturned room when I requested a new room. 15
  • the room was Modern and quiet and the bed was so comfortable On camera20:28
  • The stay was characterized by everything being very clean, new with small touches such as makeup wipes left in the room. 12
  • The window shades were completely see through with bright Christmas lights outside. 15
  • I called down to the front desk and they said maintenance wouldn't be in until 5am. So we had to sit there with our room in that state until 5am. Maintenance finally showed uo at about 5:45. 15
  • Had four nights booked in a large riverfront suite. Room was flooded, 8th floor, AC was leaking like a fire hose. 15
  • The guy at the desk wouldn't call anyone. All our stuff was in that room, including my medicine that I needed to take nightly. All he would do was give us another room and he acted like he was doing us a favor. 15
  • Kensington London - Dated decor 15
  • Room turn wasn't completed. Uncased pillows piled on one bed was the indicator and I didn't look further. 15
  • Again, we've stayed at some really good ones, and some that are not so good. We still laugh about pulling out the sleeper sofa at the Embassy in Savannah and finding a chicken wing bone. 13
  • The AC in the room was not working properly. We had to turn it down to 65 in order for it to stay on and cool the room properly. Froze all night because of it. 12
  • The room my husband and I were in had blood on the walls and the lock to the toilet was broken with blood in there as well. 15
  • The toilet in the 2nd room my child and mil were in didn't work. I called to have the toilet fixed multiple time but they said matainence was not available. 15
  • The room and the staff were amazing 12
  • HGI in Tallahassee, FL. We were given a room that had not been made up, and they expected us to just... deal with it (they were full.) 15
  • Doubletree Universal Studios Orlando. The room was filthy and full of someone's things. 15
  • Ants all over the bathroom in the replacement room. 15
  • By far the worst property we ever stayed at. We stayed in a handicapped room. The tub had zero anti slip treads on it. My disabled son went down instantly. 15
Bathroom10 mentions
  • Clean room, nice shower. Helped with getting to and from the airport 12
  • In shower area in tub sitting chair was broken , I didn't need it but they tried to fix but didn't done well. 12
  • Flushed the toilet and a torrent of water started gushing out of the toilet. It was like a firehose coming from inside the toilet. 15
  • Shower covered in mildew in all corners with large gaps forming along every edge. Shower head mostly clogged. 15
  • The bathroom had no toilet paper. None. I had to call three times and ended up going to the front desk in my pj's. 15
  • The toilet in the 2nd room my child and mil were in didn't work. I called to have the toilet fixed multiple time but they said matainence was not available. 15

  • Flash forward to 2am, our neighbors are having a drunken rager. We call the front desk and no one answers. Head down at 3am because what if they are dead and need help, they've never answered. He's sitting there on his phone and tells us "yes I heard the phone" we tell him about the noise. 15

  • I just got tired of the below average coffee and choices for breakfast and have switched to HGI or other nicer Hilton's. 13
  • Breakfast was nothing special but sufficient. 12
  • Home2 and Tru kinda sit in the middle of them if that makes sense? They're kinda newer brands, so they tend to be in nicer shape with more modernized and cleaner LOOKING rooms (old rooms are dingy, sorry), but like Hampton they only offer complimentary breakfast and a market in the way of food. 13
  • the breakfast was nice for onigo the area was nice On camera20:54
  • only issue is there is no restaurant in the hotel hotel guests must walk to the nearby Embassy Suites orber to another nearby restaurant for food On camera21:53
  • If we really wanted to label it Hampton is more budget friendly, you get free breakfast and aside from the market that is your only food amenity. Typically very basic (usually outdated) rooms 13
