Hampton Inn Stony Creek

Hampton Inns are our "go to" for overnight stays in unfamiliar areas partly because they are generally located near the Interstate, but also because we can rely on them to be a good quality experience for a reasonable price. And this place met those standards except for some minor issues. When we looked for the ice and vending machines on the 3rd floor where we were staying, I found an ice machine that was off with a big sign that said "out of order". And there were no vending machines. I went back to the room to call the front desk and the phone did not work no matter what I tried. So I went down the staircase to the second floor and found an ice machine that worked and a soda machine that said "sold out". So, I got my ice and went down to the 1st floor where I found a working ice machine, a soda machine that didn't say "sold out" and a snack vending machine. At that time I didn't purchase anything as all I wanted was ice and to see what else was available. The room was very nice with all the amenities, but a few worn spots on the carpet which surprised me, but it obviously didn't cause a problem. The next morning when I turned on the shower I went to turn the adjustable dial for the various types of shower sprays and the dial fell off! I was able to get it back on, but could not adjust the spray at all. We went down to the hot breakfast which did not disappoint as they had everything someone might want including make your own waffles, omelets, sausage, cereal, toast, juice, muffins, oatmeal, etc. Before we left I went to use the lobby area men's room and the door did not lock! Kind of awkward if someone else decided to walk in since there was only one toilet, a sink and no urinal. So, overall everything was OK, with these minor annoyances. With inflation causing price increases, I expect to get what I pay for and this place didn't quite measure up to what I expected so thus the 4 star rating instead of 5.

The staff was very professional and friendly. I left my jacket in the closet and called the hotel to see if they could mail it to me. They did and received it in a few days. That was going above for me and was very appreciated. Just for that reason I would recommend this hotel. Thank you to the staff.

The breakfast provided offered more options, then expected ( waffles, oatmeal, yogurts, eggs and the standards). Cute and clean breakfast area. Service was friendly and helpful.

Good breakfast and location

Unfortunately, we left before breakfast. But the room was so clean & comfortable. We asked for a ground floor room, as my husband is disabled & they accommodated us. I will stay here again on our next trip.
