Hampton Inn Carbondale

The bed was comfortable, there was a choice of pillows. The bathroom was clean. It did lack a hairdryer (which I reported to the front desk upon checkout. The breakfast was outstanding! I complimented the cook.

We stayed there last night. The room smelled like old socks, the bed was too soft, the pillows were awful and the shower had no power whatsoever. My husband stayed at a Hampton last weekend in Springfield, MO that was perfect in all these ways. Since we rarely go to Carbondale, we won't choose this again.

The bathtub has some stains in that needed to be scrubbed off

Bathroom could use a deep clean. Door needs adjusting. We could see daylight out of it.

Room type reserved wasn’t available when checking in at 5:00 pm. Gave us different room type and said it would be cheaper but found after looking at receipt when getting him, rate was still the same. Breakfast was not the greatest. Several people in our group had issues with their rooms, not cleaned when they checked in, used adult diaper in room, etc.

Pool and hot tub were not working. The TV was ancient. The furniture in room was beat up. The pillows looked like toddler pillowes. The bed was old and uncomfortable. The staff that checkedbusnin were pleasant.

Staff was very welcoming and accommodating. The breakfast was a bit disappointing. We went down with 2 hours to spare and there wasn't much left. Staff were walking around, but never refilled anything. We ended up eating somewhere else. The hot full breakfast was one of the main reasons we chose this hotel. Otherwise a great place to stay!!

Filthy!!

Didn’t have our room ready until 8:30

To start off the front desk staff that checked me in had no personality. They were very cut and dry. I booked my reservation a year in advance and had called and requested my room to have a let out couch. When I asked was the room that he assigned had a let out couch he told me he didn’t know. There is no way you work to check people in that you don’t know what each room has or should be able to find out right away. He told me if the room doesn’t have a let out couch I should call the front desk and they will find me one. Of course the room didn’t have one and when I called the front desk new staff stated they couldn’t get me a room with a let out couch. After again explaining I made this request a year ago the new staff stated they could offer a roll away bed but it would take them 2 hours. It was 4:00pm when I was told this. After 2 hours I was told that they had to wash the covers for the roll away. At 7:00pm the roll away was brought to the room and we were told they were washing the sheets for it. It was 10:30pm before the sheets were delivered and that was because I called and asked for them. I was also charged an extra $35 a day for incidentals that no one bothered to explain. The policy was only explained once I questioned it after receiving the charge on my debit card. I didn’t receive the hospitality I should have received. My stay was from Thursday, May 8th -Sunday, May 11th. Which was over $600 dollars and never felt a friendly or generous reception.

Employees were nice, poor management because the hotel overbooked and they ran out of key cards for the rooms. The air condition made strange noises when coming on and off as if a door was opening and closing. No ice on the second or third floor in the ice machine. Other than that, it was an OK stay but it wasn’t worth what I paid. I was very disappointed.

The first room we were given smelled like a dog. We were moved to another room where the carpeting was tile squares - flat and uncomfortable. The bathtub was not flat and when taking a shower, it was hard to stand without almost falling over. The breakfast was weak. A lot of staff just standing around. The halls smelled like sewer. This hotel is definitely not up to the standards of a Hilton hotel. We checked out on April 29th and I have never received a receipt for my stay. I would never tell anyone to stay at that hotel.l

Friendly, helpful staff

Disappointing. There was hair in the bathtub at check in. Staff behind front desk was not welcoming. Got the sense nobody wanted to be there.

My bed did not get made once. I stayed for six nights. Managerial requests were partially obliged, e.g. towels changed but did not make bed, or in some cases, dump out the trash. Rather disappointed.

Consistent high quality service.

We found the facilities to be perfect for what we wanted, but I can see how the location would not be favorable for someone looking for a more active area. Every interaction with staff was favorable.

Need firmer beds

Hot tub has been broken for 2 months.

Bathroom was never cleaned. Toilet paper left on the sides of the bathtub!!
