We chose the hotel based on Hampton's reputation for being clean, and because this hotel's prices were significantly lower than the other brand-name options nearby. The entryway and lobby were fine. The clerk was coughing and sounded hoarse, and as he was touching our hotel keys and credit card, I wondered if we would end up sick (we didn't get sick). I asked if they had a full house (we were there for a concert on a Sunday evening at the fairgrounds), and his answer was, "Not even close. I wish."
The elevator and hallway carpet needed a deep cleaning, and the hallway wallpaper was torn and peeling in several places and looked dirty. A sign by the elevators indicated that the entire third floor was closed for renovation. Construction workers were staying there, but we never heard any work being done (we were on the second floor and arrived after 5 pm and left the next morning by 10 am).
Our room's carpet was dirty, and surfaces were dusty/sticky. The bathroom had sticky floors (my sandals made a noise when I walked on them and I didn't want to take them off) and water was leaking from the sink pipe (also water stains, so it must be ongoing). However, the shower was powerful and warm.
Mattresses sunk in the middle. The AC made a loud, rattling noise like something inside it was loose, and it kept turning off and wouldn't cool down, even set as low as 60 degrees.
We stayed, since we just needed to sleep and shower there, but I would not stay there again.
