Cheap but felt overpriced for the experience.
Pros:

Cheap and air conditioner worked well

Cons:

Tv didn’t work, was told maintenance would fix it but they never showed. WiFi was useless wouldn’t hardly load anything. Pillows were absolutely terrible and when asked for an extra one stated they had none.

The door didn't have a security lock inside. The hall was under renovation. We were told they finished at 5pm it was 9pm. Scraped wall paper all over the hall. Painting till 9pm and paint fumes.

Cons:

The property was so trashy that we requested to cancel our stay. Fortunately, the manager approved our request. Never have we seen such a shabby Hampton Inn.

Cons:

My name is Paula PauI and I booked a 3 night stay (6/2-6/5) at Hampton inn Columbus East in Columbus OH through Bookings . Com. When we got there, the hotel was in full renovation mode. The halls were cluttered with furniture, trash on the hall floor and workers painting. We could not stay there because of the smell and clutter. The mgmt stayed we would need to call Bookings.com to get a refund. We had to go to another hotel to stay for 3 nights. I am looking for a refund of $409.62. That hotel should not be open while they were renovating. Please have someone call me so I can talk about my refund. My name is Paula Paul, my confirmation “ is 5823354587 my pin is 5163 and my phone # is 301 852-8850.

Under construction
Pros:

Breakfast and location excellent

Cons:

The place was under remodeling and loud during the day. I believe there should have been a discount for the inconvenience.

Very decent room in a great location.
Pros:

Great muffins and mini scones for breakfast, with very good orange juice and milk. Clean room. Comfortable bed. Microwave oven in room. Hot coffee and tea station near the front desk. Location near several nice restaurants and shopping areas.

Cons:

No drawers in room to store clothes during a long stay. Omelettes and sausages were bland and not very hot.

Our room met our needs very nicely, if not exceptionally.
Pros:

Bed was comfortable and clean. Carpet was clean. Bathroom shower with soap dispensers was great. Air conditioner worked great. Good microwave oven. There were plenty of plugs for electronics. Breakfast area was clean and comfortable. The orange juice and milk were fabulous. Location is right near the highway and near several restaurants.

Cons:

There were no drawers to put clothes in. All the cabinets were open including a spot to hang clothes. The counter space near the bathroom sink was small. The food in the breakfast room tended to be barely warm, and fairly bland tasting.
