What guests think

Across reviews, Hampton Inn Elkton earns praise for clean, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and a convenient, quiet location near I‑95, though ongoing renovations and occasional maintenance problems temper experiences and make certain amenities unavailable at times.

Rooms are comfortable and in some areas newly updated, but guests report weak water pressure, occasional A/C or TV problems, and noise in certain locations. Service ranges from warm, accommodating interactions to unhelpful responses and occasional check‑in, key, or room‑assignment issues. Breakfast is often hot and plentiful, though it can run low or turn cold on some mornings. Overall, expect a convenient stopover with mostly pleasant stays and occasional limitations.

Booked last minute through a third party, since I did not know where I would end up at the end of a long travel day. When I arrived, no record of the booking. It took half an hour to request the booking information from the third party. Advertised as having a pool, but facility was in renovation and pool unavailable. Vending machine "ate" my money and return button did not work. Television was advertised as having permiumm movie channels but could not find them. Totally understaffed. Not a good experience after a long travel day.

Bad hotel. The gym and pool services were not available...And they charged me the same even though I couldn't use those services! (They should notify on the page that the building was under repair and give discounts to passengers). The hotel is ugly, the elevators are loose (they seem unsafe), and almost all the people at the reception give poor service. The only person who does their job well is the person who prepares breakfast. I didn't change to another hotel because I was very tight with my times. I will no longer return to that hotel or any hotel in that chain. Bad experience.

The only staff member encountered was at the desk during check-in and she was wonderful. The property is in need of repairs. Business station and pool shut down for repairs. There is a good bit of water leaking from one of the ice machines and I spotted a hole in the ceiling above it. The room is great. Not in need of any repair. It was clean and comfortable. Bed is very comfortable and we slept well. Noise level was great - we were on the 4th floor facing the back.

The hotel is under complete renovation. There is no sign at the gym or pool saying, out of order. Bathroom shower only from the top half broken. Hotel.com should notify customers that these amenities is out of order at the time of reservation.

They were roaches on the floor that were dead. There were some in the pool there was paint peeling in the pool.

My only problem is on the mirror in our room,it says that they will clean room every other day. Came in on Friday, Saturday we asked for clean towels and Sunday the room should have been cleaned it was not touched.i am ok with the bed sheets not being changed, but the trash and dirty towels should have been taken care of. The pool we used on Saturday night and there was only like 5 or 6 towels there the dirty ones over flowing in the basket. Sunday night there was only 2 clean towels and the basket was still there with the dirty towels.

The lobby is on the second floor, not the first. The first floor rooms are essentially basement rooms. Room 108, our original room, had definitely flooded in the past and smelled moldy and musty. The front desk clerk was very surly about giving us another room. The room rates were already very high because of various sports tournaments in the area. I was not about spend $500 to sleep in a room that my daughter described as smelling like old, wet towels. The replacement room we finally got did not smell moldy, but the shower in the bathroom was moldy and there was very little water pressure in the shower. Drinking fountains have more water pressure than this shower. No one was around to look at the plumbing because it was a weekend. I know the hotel was sold out so I didn’t bother trying for a third room. We will have tournaments in the area in the future. We will not be staying at the Hampton Inn in Elkton.

The worst hotel experience I've had. I was surprised, as my usual stays with Hampton/Hilton are very good. This location (Elkton) is an embarrassment to the chain. I booked a room days in advance and was given a room in the basement of the establishment (below ground), next to the pool and workout facilities. Stale water saturated the air. And the room itself had roaches in it, live and dead. Obviously the management knew about the problem as there were roach motels/baits in the corners of the room. When I asked for another room because of the bug issue, I was given a room that looked as though it hadn't been properly made up by the staff. Towels looked used and the bed had an imprint in the bedding and pillow from someone who'd taken a nap in it. I immediately checked out and landed in Aberdeen where the Hilton was what I expected. Elkton staff and management should be fired. They make the chain look bad. I will be contacting headquarters with my complaint.

The staff at this hotel are horrible. Someone came into our room WITHOUT KNOCKING saying “housekeeping”. We had the “still sleeping” sign on the door but he just unlocked the door and came in. We yelled “No!” And he left. No apology no nothing, just left. We called the front desk to complain and they did nothing. Alexis at the front desk called back and said our room was on the “checked out” list and keys were turned in. We asked to speak to the manager and were told she had a family emergency and couldn’t come to the property. When we were checking out, Alexis called the manager and told her we were checking out and wanted us to speak to her on her cell phone via speaker. We asked her to call our cell phone but she called the hotel phone instead. The manager was not helpful and just said she believed her staff and couldn’t do anything. Alexis then started yelling at us that we were racists. So, two older white people complained about something that happened and the black staff says WE are racists. I think THEY are racists. We just wanted an apology and acknowledgement that they made a mistake. Instead, we are now banned from the property for complaining.

Hampton Inn's are usually a good quality medium hotel. This one fell below those standards. No keys were available. Every time you had to enter your room, the hotel staff would have to open your door. The mattress was a bit uncomfortable and the breakfast wasn't up to typical standards (Fewer options). I'm glad I was only staying one night, otherwise I would have moved to a different hotel.
