This is an old hotel and is not in great shape. I don't think it was originally a Hampton. let me first say that there are not a lot of good choices in Sandusky, and this may be a viable option, but keep your expectations low.

The service and the breakfast was good. Check in and our was a breeze.

The bathrooms were very old and small, with a tiny sink outside. I got the king jacuzzi room, and it was OK. The jacuzzi did not work properly, and it was hard to get the jets on or off.

The biggest disappointment I had was that there was black mold on the top of the shower ceiling. Obviously, they had a leak upstairs and housekeeping didn't notice this large mold spot. Not cool. I let them know at checkout, and they just said they would have someone look in to it.

Very basic hotel with a decent breakfast. Keep your expectations low if you choose to stay here.

We had two rooms at the Hampton Inn Sandusky – Central on August 26, to August 28, 2010. One room was on the first floor (King Size Bed) and the other on the second floor. We found the hotel to be clean and the staff very friendly and helpful, with no smell or bugs. The room for my wife and I had extra towels each day, without having to request them, which made her very happy. The breakfast was very simple, but very nice. There were several hot items that rotated every day. Brian, the night manager was helpful with dining options and recommended the two places across the road. Both were acceptable choices. Our two teenage boys took the food out and stayed in the room, we ate in each place one night. The boys used the indoor pool the first night and it was well kept.

We did not see any of the bugs or other problems the past few reviewers claim to have had. We would stay there again and highly recommend it.

We stayed from 7/27 8/1 . Room had bugs in it Cockroaches in our room and Hotel was not a Original Hampton Inn before! It was the most disgusting Hampton Inn that I have ever stayed at ! I'm a Hilton Honors member(Silver) and I have stayed at Hampton Inns all over the USA ,And NEVER stayed at on so GROSS! everything was dirty and a little seedy about the Hampton here in Sandusky,Oh! The carpet was dirty too in our room. In our bathroom was where we found the baby Cockroach on the toilet seat ! NICE ! Totally gross ! take it from me DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON THIS PLACE! By they way they charged us $178.00 the 1st night stay and then we demaned a Full refund, They said no problem until this week when I got our CC statement in the mail and we were charged $640.01 ,So I called the Hampton Inn and they credited our CC back the $ 640.01 So now we will wait to see over the next couple of days to see if they actually credited our account back! Stay Tuned! And don't stay there! Oh, One of the Highlights of the trip besides the cockroaches was the Teenagers in the hallway on the 3rd floor trying to start a fire with there lighter by the elevator by the carpet! This hotel is prefect for Hookers, Drug Addicts, Lowlifes, Scummmy people

I have stayed at this hotel on business in the past with no issues. It's right next door to a Fairfield Inn. Just to clarify where I'm coming from - I've been a Hilton Honors member for over 10 years with Diamond status 4 out of those year. I could have easily have chosen Fairfield every time I go to Sandusky, but I prefer Hilton properties overall, so I make it a point to book the Hampton. This trip had been booked an confirmed a week before the trip. I'm not picky about rooms, I know ALL the rooms at the Hamptom are good.

I ran into bad weather on the flight over the Cleveland this particular trip, and I knew I was going to end up arriving at the Hamptom very late at night, so I gave them a call just to be sure I would still have a room when I arrived at 2am.

I was informed they were actually overbooked, so they moved me to the La Quinta Inn down the street! There were some guests that were supposed to check out that day, but decided to stay another night, so they kicked me out of the Hampton.

First of all - La Quinta, really? It's not even a Hilton property. This is how they treat people who choose this property not because of the cost, but because they know they get quality stays at Hilton properties. This is how they treat people who are frequent guests, who pick them over the equally quality driven Fairfield Inn next door.

You can bet I'll never stay there again, it's the Fairfield for every upcoming business trip to the area. You just lost a loyal customer.
