Average stay, not too expensive
Pros:

Booked 2 king size bed rooms only to be checked in for 2 two-double bed rooms. The front desk person didn’t even let us know before hand. It’s It doesn’t look like there’s a price difference but still would’ve been nice to at least had been notified of the change. Our rooms were at the end of the 3rd floor and it was pretty noisy from the traffic outside but also some noise in the hallways and the cleaning closet next to us. The room was average, seemed clean. The bathroom needs a make over. The faucet was separated from the wall in the shower. For a one night stay of just passing through though it did its job.

Clean and convenient
Pros:

The check-in was seamless. The room was clean and quiet. One could not ask for a better location to enjoy the Spoleto USA events.

We were approached at breakfast by Karen with HGV, who spoke to us about the possibility of a vacation opportunity. She was pleasant and well informed.

Good, comfortable stay
Pros:

We enjoyed our stay here. The room was comfortable but we found the bed a little too soft. The breakfast was very good and definitely on the level of other Hampton Inn hotels. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful, particularly Kayla. Overall, a good stay and recommended

Charleston is lovely to visit, the Hampton is in a good location near the colleges area and King St/ Marian Square.
Pros:

The location was convenient for walking to King St and the Visitors Center was across the street making catching the trolley tour and free bus so easy. The breakfast was nice every morning.

Cons:

The furniture is old, the shower was dated. The room did not have a microwave and refrigerator. A refrigerator was provided when I requested it for storing medicine.

Good Location But room was very disappointing
Pros:

Stayed at this facility from 4/26 -4/28/26, This hotel was in a good location and the staff was very helpful and the not so good was the room that we were in was in need of a total make over, the bathroom was horrible there was a big scratch in the mirror giving the impression that there could be someone on the other side looking in and the rest of the bathroom needed to be gutted and redone. This is not what I expected when staying at a Hilton property. The other issue that I had with my stay was at the breakfast buffet on our last day, there were two homeless people at the breakfast bar helping themselves and then leaving through the side door, I found this very alarming that they could just walk in and help themselves without being approached by staff. When checking out I did not pay close attention to my bill until I got home and I realized that they had double billed me for the parking but after making more than six calls I finally got that straightened out.
