Breakfast was disappointing. Shower head didn’t work properly. I was charged additional $15 for parking.

The Gas smell coming out of the laundry or kitchen rooms(I don't know) is above the benches of the pool, which is outside. If by any chance someone smokes in the pool there could be a no good situation, especially in an area of young university students who still don't measure the risk and dangers.

Once you walked into the hotel, everything was fine, but it would’ve been nice to know that there’s major construction with roads blocked and for people that are from out of town and not familiar with that area. It was very frustrating trying to find the back roads to get to the hotel. Also surprise! $20 to park my car in a parking lot that’s never full at a hotel that should be part of the Price of staying at the hotel. But on the upside, it was convenient and within walking distance of a few overpriced restaurants that look like they seem better days.

This hotel is disgustingly overpriced for the average at best accommodations they provide. Then they tack on a $20 per night shelf parking charge for their outdoor lot. Completely not worth the money. We have stayed in better hotels in the area for a much fairer price and much nicer facilities.

Convient and we could walk to restaurants. Did not like the $15.00 parking fee. Which if there was a security guard working out front I would understand the fee.

First time I've been charged a separate fee for parking when they are A drive up motor hotel. Just RIdiculous. At the very least let customers know at time of check in. They just billed my credit card separately days later. I had to call to ask what was the additional charge for.

At first glance everything in the room seemed fine, and it really wasn’t terrible but I did notice a lot of small things that seemed to go unnoticed by the cleaning crew. Upon entering I immediately noticed what appeared to be coffee stains splattered on the wall by the door and coffee area. When entering the bathroom I could see half dried lotion stuck to the wall where it looks like someone sprayed the bottle too hard and didn’t clean it off. Again, not anything that made me think the room was unclean, but just looked as though a deep clean could be needed.

Our Room was quiet and a view of the parking lot. The Bed was absolutely horrible. So uncomfortable and the pillows had nothing to them, like just laying on a pillow case. The Toilet is way too low to the ground. And the floors are filthy. We had to wash our feet continuously, especially before bed. And after showering, put our shoes on. Breakfast was good. Wish they had honey for my soupy oatmeal. The overall hotel experience is good. Oh wait, Almost forgot! $20 for parking right outside the door! It's not even valet! And to get to the hotel parking lot, based on directions to get there, was ridiculous! Apparently there has been Construction for over a year now (the desk attendant said) and there were no clear signs on how to get there and around construction. We were not given a heads up that there would be a problem getting in. So driving in circles for 10 minutes we finally figured it out, through the Publix parking lot. We will not return to this specific hotel if we are ever in the area again.

My son’s annual Christmas concert was yesterday. Unfortunately for me I became quite ill. Being a preferred member as I am a traveling RN I reached out to cancel my reservation. Not only did they refuse to refund my money but when speaking to the reservation desk they had very little to any concern regarding the lack of customer service related this policy. I will Definitely be moving my preferred membership to another chain due to this unfortunate event. Customer service means everything to me.

We were booked for Hampton Inn Tallahassee Capital University May 10-13 2024. We were driving from Atlanta. When we arrived in Tallahassee we were noticing trees down & traffic signals out. Inched our way to the hotel to find out they had lost power due to 3 tornados that hit that morning. The front desk staff was extremely helpful, calling hotels to see who had rooms and power. They found the Hampton in Quincy had power and a few rooms. Thank you for your help Hampton Tallahassee.

Location

Excellent location for FSU/FAMU and the Civic Center, with restaurants and a Publix within walking distance. Ongoing road construction frequently complicates access and can add noise; a few comments questioned the surrounding area's appeal.

The property was great, although there’s a lot of construction and it was very hard to find how to get to it from my maps because they had the road blocked off. I had to just figure it out myself which it took a bit of time and was kind of frustrating upon arrival because I wasn’t used to the area. It would’ve been nice to have an email stating that you need to go down past the Publix And come back around. Overall, the stay was great, and the staff was very helpful.

Booked the room to stay in after a concert at the Civic Center. Very convenient location within walking distance if you’d like to walk. Overwhelmed with the construction in the area however, the hotel remained clean and organized even though the streets are around, it were disrupted. Room was excellent, clean, and we were very impressed by the space and security to get to our room after hours. The breakfast area was continually clean and stocked, and all the employees were courteous and pleasant. We would definitely recommend staying here again.

The breakfast was inedible. I was very shocked, because normally the breakfast at a Hampton Inn is excellent. This breakfast was the worst hotel breakfast I ever had. The eggs were clearly not real eggs and came out of a plastic bag. The server brought the eggs out in the plastic bag they were heated in to refill the tray. There were no hard boiled eggs. The fruit was wrapped in plastic as well. It was clear the fruit was not fresh as well. There was no bagels both days we were there. The yogurt was a sugar filled cheap brand rather than a protein based Greek yogurt. My son and I could not eat breakfast there which was very unfortunate, because I paid extra for breakfast. I had to leave the hotel to buy breakfast. Even though the hotel was clean, I will never stay there again, because of the horrible breakfast.
