Hampton Inn Morehead

A little sketch… I stayed here while traveling through town on work and found this hotel to be very so-so. It’s located conveniently off the highway, although the turn to get into the hotel can be tricky. Staff was all very nice, but the hotel is super run down and this part of town is very country. Not a problem for me, but I probably wouldn’t like it traveling with my family. If “y’all, ma’am, and Sir” aren’t part of your vocabulary, you may feel out of sorts. There are a few good places to eat around town and a SUPER sketchy dive bar and club behind the hotel called “Frankie’s plaza”. It was loud from my hotel room and I could hear music until late at night. In the morning there was no hot water, but at night it was boiling, so I don’t get it. At this price point (over $110/night), you can do better in the area for less money. Also, those hotel inspection certificate was expired (see photos). I’ll pass on this location next time, although it was your “average” and older Hampton Inn property.

A Great Stay Super service at the front desk, and a very nice clean room, spacious and well-appointed. Great location too, just off the interstate and near some nice places to shop and eat. Room, bathroom, and all the areas are very clean, adn the staff is cheerful and helpful. Easy 5.

Not impressed Not impressed. For almost $200 a night, it should have been a nicer motel. Old furnishings, no toiletries, typical motel breakfast. Hampton's are usually better than this. Front desk was friendly. Not worth $200 a night. I will keep adding text until I get the 200 characters required!!!

Overpriced, outdated, but clean. This should be a case of bait and switch. When you search this hotel in the Hilton app, it shows a nice modernized hotel, for the Morehead, KY location cover photo. Upon selecting your room, it shows the correct outdated room. One would think “Oh they just forgot to update the room photos since the main photo is updated. No. The main photo is wrong. This place is overpriced and outdated. The bed has box springs that sound like they were installed 20-30 years ago. Squeak and creak every move you make. TV is updated. It’s bout a 40-43” LG. Wi-Fi is abysmal during the day. Huge pings, with Wi-Fi improving as the night goes on. Around 11pm I was able to get 5mb up/5mb down. Still slow pings, but usable. $162 for the Honors rate, totaling up to a whopping $188 for this outdated location. I felt like I had been scammed. No, it was not from a 3rd party app, it was directly from Hilton. Front desk staff was okay, nothing outstanding. Didn’t offer me any of the members freebies. I at least expected a bottle of water for the price of the room. The hallway floor squeaks nearly every step you take. Walls and floor are super thin. Luckily, my neighbors were quiet and I made sure to walk lightly for my neighbors below. Room and bathroom were clean. That was the only saving grace that didn’t make me walk back out and request a refund. Lastly, the parking lot is in severe need of lighting. It is so dark out there. Made me wonder if it was even safe to be out there. I will not be back here until it is modernized.

Director Lady at desk was amazingly nice, very clean hotel and will stay again. Everything as I expected it. Stay was great and quiet and conveniently located near interstate. As I travel will be staying here again.
