Cons:
Poor cleanliness: mildew, wet carpet, nasty fold-out mattress

Categories

Cleanliness
3
Multiple reviews report mildew stains in the bathroom, a musty smell from the AC, a wet carpet (possible plumbing leak), and a nasty fold-out mattress — overall cleanliness is poor.
Service
9.5
Mixed reports but several comments note staff gestures (Hilton points given) and consistent breakfast service; while some guests found staff unfriendly or unaccommodating about the pool, there is evidence of attentive actions, so service is scored positively overall.
Location
9.5
Multiple reviewers praised the location: close to the interstate, restaurants and Sunbury — location is a clear strength.
Room Quality
3.5
Rooms described as shabby with broken/unused fixtures (inoperable shades, hooks without pictures), detached shelving, poor water temperature control, and general maintenance issues — room quality is low.
Amenities
3.8
Key amenities underperformed: the pool was repeatedly reported closed/out of order (not disclosed), air conditioning problems and lack of pillow options for allergy sufferers — amenities are lacking.
Value for Money
7.3
Value is mixed: guests appreciated included breakfast and convenient location, but many felt maintenance and cleanliness issues reduced perceived value; overall slightly above average given included amenities.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast received consistently positive mentions ('good', 'great', 'better than just doughnuts and coffee'), though there was at least one food-allergy issue (eggs with cheese). Overall F&B is a strong point.
Overall Experience
8
Overall impressions are mixed: strong positives for breakfast and location and some helpful staff gestures, but significant maintenance, cleanliness, and amenity failures (pool, hot water, mildew) negatively impacted stays; net experience leans positive when weighted by frequent praise for basics.

Poorly kept and rundown
Pros:

Breakfast was consistent with all Hampton Inns.

Cons:

The room was very shabby, hooks in the wall with no pictures hanging on them, window shade what is permanently lowered and inoperable so the room was very dim, and no natural light came in. Nothing at all like the normal stays at Hampton Inn that I’ve had in the past.

Disgusting bathroom
Pros:

We have stayed at this location many times in the last four years. The condition of this hotel and its rooms has dropped tremendously in the last couple of years. We checked out this morning after a 2 day stay and it will be our last stay. Our bathroom was disgusting. There were large mildew stains on the wall by the tub. There was a shelve that was detaching from the wall. The bathroom smelled like a mixture of mildew and bleach. We had to shut our bathroom door at night because the toilet had the sound of dripping water. I should have taken pictures. It was room 116 for reference if management sees this review. Lastly, I have noticed in our travels that this particular hotel is the only Hilton hotel that does not acknowledge their guests that are Gold members. I know that doesn’t make me special & I am not looking for special treatment but every other hotel will give you a water if you want one at check in. It’s a small gesture and just a thing I have noticed about this location.

Cons:

Carpet was wet, like there was a plumbing leak. The shower had only hot and scalding hot water, no cold water at all. Because of the water issues, I was not able to take a shower. Breakfast eggs contained cheese and i am deathly allergic to cheese therefore I didn't get breakfast.... never again will I stay at this location and I will not recommend this site

Allergy alert- not to Hilton standards
Pros:

Allergy alert. They have only feather pillows. If you are allergic there are no other options. Also there was a musty smell coming from air conditioner. Cracks in the ceiling above the shower and water pressure was low. NOT Hilton standards. We booked two nights but checked out to a much better Home 2 Suites for the 2nd night. They get a 2nd star as they gave me some Hilton points for sleeping without pillows.

Recent May Visit
Pros:

The breakfast was good.

Cons:

The pool was not working and my kids were very disappointed. It was closed until August and no mention on the Booking.com app. The fold out mattress on the couch was also very nasty. We only decided to stay there for the pool.

Cons:

I didn't have hot water to shower for the two days I was staying there. My air conditioning wasn't working so my room wasn't comfortable at all. Breakfast was always gone before 10 am. I went down at 9 one morning and there wasn't anything left and nobody would bring anything else out.

This option suited my needs but it fell short during my time there.
Pros:

I enjoyed the level of cleanliness in both my room and public areas. The staff were friendly and welcoming, they were very helpful with my questions and requests.

Cons:

Unfortunately during my stay the pool was closed, and in the room at both the sink and the shower there was no hot water.

Hard pass next time in Columbus
Pros:

Traveling with 10 people so we had 5 rooms md spent $1600 for 2 nights. The pool was closed, our bathroom sink wouldnt drain and the toilet was leaking all over the floor. Add that to not having hot water for showers, very disappointed.
