    Please be advised, if it is booked through any app other than Hilton, you receive zero points. Just throwing that out there. Husband having surgery, so we have stayed about 5 nights, plus 2 more stays booked. That was a little upsetting, especially since we are staying so much. It is very clean, can be not so quiet at night. Sometimes, there can be lots of outside noise, ambulances, fire trucks, doors slamming and loud vehicles. I think the soundproofing might need a bit of help, but the hotel can't help that- however, the rooms are always incredibly nice, very clean, the staff is friendly and the breakfast is lovely. Excellent stay and we are very grateful!

    I usually enjoy staying at Hampton Inns because they’re consistent, clean, and comfortable—but unfortunately, this location near I-85 in Raleigh-Durham fell a bit short of expectations. Check-in was good, and the staff was friendly. Well insulated room makes for low street and neighbor noise. I like that. The room itself was just nice —clean, seems like a recent update took place. Like most budget hotels, the air conditioning was noisy and cycled constantly through the night, making it hard to sleep. Breakfast was the usual. The selection was good, hot items were warm enough. The coffee was fresh and good. All good right? Now the real issue with this particular location. Only one elevator working. The other has been out of commission for a month is my understanding. This inconvenience makes going to and from the higher floors excruciating. On top of that the elevator moves at a snail’s pace between floors. It is not air conditioned and makes trips up and down very slow and painful with all the people piled in during busy morning and evening periods. This is not acceptable. Overall, this Hampton Inn doesn’t live up to the brand’s usual standards. It’s adequate for a quick overnight stop if you just need a bed off the highway, but if you’re expecting the quality and comfort Hampton typically delivers, you’ll likely be disappointed. If you stay demand a first floor room.

    Room 406 feels and smells clean. Typical furniture for a Hampton Inn. No complaints. The breakfast selections are normal, but a bit disappointed the oatmeal was not served this morning. They did have the instant kind out but I don’t like those.
