Best Hotels in Linden

We typically choose Hampton Inn when traveling - bottom line: This Hampton is way below the standard. DETAIL: The STAFF was excellent. The first room had a broken door lock. It would not lock. You could open it without a key. (Room 433) The friendly staff immediately switched us to room 443. This ROOM was clean, but just run down. The general vibe was “this room is old”. Old or broken fixtures…bathroom light bracket broken, bathroom mortar joints cracking, power outlet on desk in room rusted, and the room smelled odd. HOT WATER: During our two night stay, the shower water the first morning was just warm enough to keep the chill away. Would not get hot. On the second morning there was NO hot water, and we had to check out without showering. We asked a couple in the elevator and they had the same problem and had reported it to the front desk. I recommend passing on this Hampton until a remodel.

Arrived late and for that reason did a self check-in and digital key, which worked very well. But it was so late, we didn't want to call the front desk to complain about the room. To be frank, I don't know how this hotel has gotten glowing ratings. When I saw the king bed with only two small, very lumpy and misshapen pillows, I wondered how they could possibly set a room like this and be proud of it. Nevermind the waterproof zipped mattress pad which was very uncomfortable and created staticky sheets. In the room itself, there was a kitchenette with dishes, coffeepot, micro and apartment sized fridge. Convenient if you were traveling with kids or staying for a few days. Not sure why you would need or want to. The room itself was tired. Chipped lampshades with peeling plastic. Wallpaper with dings. A curtain to separate the (well-used)loveseat/TV area from the bed. The ”vanity” in the bathroom -- newer countertop and sink, but the wood ”cabinetry” under sink was chipped and crooked and made the whole bathroom look run down. Only one bar of soap, no other toiletries. Then the shower --metal framing and just looked grungy. Did not even use it. I appreciate the idea of shared wall-pump toiletries to cut down on plastic waste, but just doesn't feel sanitary. This hotel was also right on a very busy thoroughfare and seemed popular with travelers -- which may explain why people were wide awake and stomping around upstairs at 2AM. Includes breakfast but we did not stay for it. Looked very basic (cereal, baked goods). Would not stay again.

During my 2 days stay the room wasn't cleaned and the staff proposed to me to use dirty towels another day! Safety issue at this hotel, at evening is only one person for entire hotel who proposed to us to call 911 if we have any issue ! Avoid this hotel! Dirty, old rooms and NO SERVICE!

Good hotel for business trip

The only complaint that I have is that the room I stayed in did not have a fridge. Other than that the hotel is beautiful! The rooms are extremely nice! No carpet! Love the bathrooms! Overall, the hotel is a must!

The management and staff (Archie, mellisa, And shawna) were all very sweet and accommodating. I asked for a room close to an exit and they made it possible. The beds are extremely soft and comfortable and the rooms are clean and tidy. The housekeeping also did a wonderful job at cleaning the room and making sure I had soap and clean towels. 5 stars!

Avoid at all cost. First the front desk woman was rude. Just handed us the card and told us what floor we were on. Didn’t mention the complimentary breakfast or anything. From looking at the lobby, the hotel looks up to date and pretty decent , the room? A different Story. There is a hole on the wall behind the sofa bed, there is a hole with a door under the out dated thermostat & the door doesn’t shut , the paint is peeling , there is a cup on the sprinkler in the bathroom , the bed is as hard as a rock and the mattress has a remote on the bed to control the softness , the remote doesn’t work. But whatever , we try to make the best of this situation , so I went to put the TV on for our son to watch , Tv didn’t work, I called down at the front desk to see that my phone in the room wasn’t working. I went to get in the elevator to go speak to the front desk , and the elevator wasn’t work and the other one was out of service. After climbing down 6 flights of stairs, I got to the front desk. Told the lady about the tv not working , she sends someone up to check it out , the man plays with the remote and setting for about 15-30 mins finally gets it and pretty much blames us for the tv not working at first. Now it’s dinner time, we call down at the restaurant located in the lobby and no one answers even tho the hours say they are open, we leave to go to a restaurant in the neighborhood and see that the restaurant is closed , no signs or anything stating it’s closed. We come back to go take showers and see the towels have yellow stains and long black hair on it. So we went out and bought our own towels. Now it’s like 9:00-9:30 and I go to plug in my phone charger next to the bed , I pull the dresser stand out and see a tiny baggie behind the dresser. Fast forward till 12:00-12:30 AM, we are woken to the fire alarm going off all over the hotel , so we go sit in the car , after seeing people start to walk back into the hotel we follow assuming the fire alarm is over , it’s not . At this point everyone is in the lobby , my 5 year old is shivering from being outside and in the cold car so we decided to stay in the lobby with all the other families , about 30 mins later the fire department was able to shut the alarm off and we were able to come back into the room. From over hearing the fire department they had the same issues with the same floor in this hotel for months now , and the problem isn’t being taken care of. This hotel gives me serious hotel Cecil vibes!! If you’re going away for whatever the reason get a hotel in a different town and just do the commute. It’s not worth the money, or the stress it causes.
