Heat/air was non-existent - staff tried but the bottom line is Hampton needs to designate some big funds to that place and every room should have a new HVAC unit put in!! We were so hot most of the time, stuffy, room smelled like dirty socks. Beds were broken down around the edges so if you laid too close to the edge you’d start to slide out. Someone must have thrown up somewhere in the hall by the main floor elevators - could get a whiff of that as you passed by. We didn’t have hot water yesterday afternoon and we’d come back expecting to take showers - nothing!! It was back on last night when we got home from dinner but it was all brown and rusty colored. My husband ran it for a bit and it cleared up but didn’t inspire confidence to brush our teeth in it. We will never return there!!! We’ve stayed at Hampton Inns before but this??? No thank you! we understand it’s historical but that shouldn’t be synonymous with run down, inefficient, and lacking quality. Ugh!!!

A last minute travel decision meant we book what’s available. I mean it should be ok, part of the Hilton portfolio…Upon arrival we were given a room that had an overwhelming odor of a dog in need of a bath and a window with the view of a truck tailgate. Yes, the truck was literally backed into a parking space that was within a few feet of the window. The concern of a vehicle crashing into our room had now far exceeded that disgusting smell. Evidently Guest safety is not a priority. We gathered our belongings, returned to the lobby and requested to be moved. The Lobby had become congested and was overrun with several Dogs. We love Dogs, however we found ourselves and others being growled at. Our move to another room had now infringed upon our time to experience Charleston and we did a quick drop. We returned that evening to a room temperature of 78 degrees and at no point during our stay did the air work. This complaint was heard from other Guest and it seems there is an ongoing problem with the air system. The fun, beauty and charm of Charleston far surpassed our unsettling experience of this Hotel. We will go back, however we will NOT ever stay at this Hotel again.
