Don't stay at Hampton Inn Oak Ridge TN.

This is the worst Hampton Inn I've ever stayed in. Typically I know what to expect in any city, but not here. I stayed in room # 210. Among the issues: 1. I booked a king non-handicap. Didn't get that. 2. The HVAC fan was as loud as a jet engine. Didn't sleep a wink. 3. The furniture, lamps were we all mis-matched and old. It seemed like this was a storage room. 4. I had a view of the indoor pool with no natural light. 5. The bathroom was dirty. 6. The rate was very high for such a poor property. To be fair, the people were friendly. I am used to getting a room near the elevator or ice maker when I book through hotels.com, which is what I got here.

HORRIBLE. On the second night of our stay, the power went out at about 11:30pm. After waiting 45 minutes, we went to the front desk to see what was going on and no one could give us answers. The front desk said “we don’t know what’s going on, the power could come back in 30 minutes or 2 hours...” I sleep with a medical device that needs to be plugged into electricity so this was a huge concern for me and I couldn’t risk waiting. It could’ve been 5 hours. After another 30 minutes with no answers, me and my sister decided to pack up and go down the street to another hotel that had electricity. The front desk agent said that I would not be charged for this night, given that we didn’t even STAY there and had to pack up and move in the middle of the night in the dark. After requesting a refund which I think is pretty reasonable given the circumstances, I was shocked to hear that my request was denied for the night that I did not stay there, again as I have a medical device that needs to be plugged in and I couldn’t do that. I called the hotel today and the front desk girl told me that “she has spoken to the GM and decided to not refund me” and when I asked if the GM could give me a call, she said “she doesn’t do that” (LOL) and then proceeded to tell me that since I didn’t disclose what medical device I have, that she can’t prove if it was life or death… Who would lie about a medical device? This dirty hotel is a joke.

The hotel is very old and outdated and it shows in the rooms and the amenities. The laundry facilities are broken, the machines in the gym are broken, the elevators are slow, and the rooms are old and sad looking. Also don’t expect more than one towel per person. For the price I would expect a nicer stay and for things to work at the hotel. On the plus side the staff at the front desk were friendly.

The location was perfect for what we were doing in Oak Ridge. The rooms were large. Breakfast left a bit to be desired -- there was very little selection unless you like cereal. There was only one carton of yogurt, one carton of cottage cheese, two of the fried eggs, and a few sausages. The oatmeal looked like it had been reheated from the previous day. Otherewise the hotel was great.
