“Not up to Hampton standards”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2011

This was first Hampton Inn that I did not find up to standards. Prior to checking in I advised the front desk that I was a Hilton Gold which should communicate that I was a regular traveler.
Unlike other Hamptons I have stayed in, the fabric on the furniture was very frayed and there was someone else's hair in the bathtub.
It is not my practice to complain, but at breakfast the (very friendly) breakfast manager inquired about my stay and once I related the problems she and the front desk clerk visited my room. They were sincerely apologetic and promised me a coupon for a free night's stay.
I do believe that this might have been a (bad) luck of the draw since the standards of Hamptons are usually pretty good and since I am regular visit to Charlotte I will give them another chance in the future.

“The Absolute Best”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2011

I have stayed may places and this is the first one that actually made me want to write about this hotel. I recently joined the Hilton Honors program and the staff greeted me by name and appreciated me for joining. The girls at the front desk really enjoyed their job. You could also tell the guest also loved being there because the lobby was packed with people for their evening dinner every day we were there. Nicole and Janon were very sweet and pleasant. My husband forgot to pack a few things and the girls were happy to assist us with a smile. The rooms were very clean and the staff was very very friendly. If u are ever in Charlotte, I strongly recommend this place.

“"MeMaw's" funeral”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2011

We cannot say enough good things about the Hampton Inn - Charlotte University. We had several people coming in from out of town for a funeral. They were able to accommodate everyone's needs. They assisted us with a meeting room so that after the funeral all the family/friends could spend a leisurely time reminiscing about “Memaw” (Our beloved, 80 year old, Great Grandmother, family Matriarch).

The hotel itself and the rooms were all very clean, very comfortable. We would definitely stay here in the future.

The staff was very friendly, so helpful, and so considerate. They provided us with a lot of local information/directions.

“Another a Good Stay at a Hampton”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2010

I did not have anything bad happen to me at this hotel. The service was very good and hotel was very clean. I had a renovated room which was very clean. The location is near the freeway and near many restaurants.

“Very disappointing for Hampton Inn”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 November 2010

First of all when we arrived all seemed well then when we was setteling up in our room the bugs appeared. When squashed it appeared to have blood in them. I quietly took then to the front desk, so not to make a scene before other guests we were moved to another room on the first floor at the decision of the desk clerk. We moved into the room and no refigerator, no microwave but the was ok. The worst problem was we were located across from a party room. We asked the counter clerk Nicole West ,if they could close the door as they were so loud it appeared they were in our room and nothing was done. She said she closed the door but they reopened it. This was the worst stay we have ever had at any hotel.

CLTUV, General Manager at Hampton Inn University Place, responded to this review
30 November 2010
Dear valued guest,

Please allow us to once again, in writing rather than in person, reiterate our sincerest regrets for the difficulties experienced during your stay with us. I am so pleased that everything was in order upon your arrival as we take great pride in warmly welcoming our guests to the property. I understand how frustrating it must have been to check into a hotel hoping to get a little R&R only to encounter a bug in your room; the insect you discovered was a seasonal Lady Bug of sort that has a pair of red antennas and occasionally slips in through our HVAC units. I assure you, we religiously practice any and all established methods of pest control. Because we were nearly sold out that evening, we were unable to match your exact upgraded room type upon the request to be moved. Thus, we offered from our limited availability a complimentary transfer which happened to be near one of our meeting rooms. I understand you were informed that the meeting room would be in use a short period longer and that you agreed to take the room regardless. We gladly closed the door as you referenced, but, as mentioned, there were a few times that door was opened and closed by those utilizing the room thereafter. Because we understood how these instances upset you, we waived all charges for your stay as it was clear your satisfaction was not 100%. If there was anything else we could have done despite our best efforts to satisfy you within our physical capacity and the complimentary stay please feel free to contact me directly at: 704-548-0905.



Warm regards

Keith Elliott, General Manager
