I can not say a bad thing about our stay at the Hampton Inn and Suites Jackson-Coliseum! It was clean and comfortable, and conveniently located just minutes from our destination, Hal and Mal's. Check-in was a breeze using our "Concert Hotels" confirmation, and the front desk staff was friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived, gladly giving us information on everything from dining to cab services. The lobby was smallish, but comfortable and well appointed. We stayed in a room with 2 double beds, usual furnishings, a computer desk, and a cozy chair, and free WIFI. The mattresses and pillows were comfy. The bathroom was clean and the shower had great water pressure! It is apparently an older hotel that's been refurbished, and although it was not plush, it was quite adequate. The hallway was surprisingly quiet, despite us being near a vending area and elevators. Breakfast was basic, but hey, it was free, and the coffee was really good, so no complaints there :) The breakfast lady was so sweet and accommodating, finding a box for me to carry our breakfast to our room, getting me cups with lids, napkins and utensils, and even opening the elevator door for me and pressing our floor number! The only negative is that it's not a safe pedestrian area, especially at night, but I understand that's a citywide issue, not exclusive to this location, and the hotel has a fence, security, and police presence. At no time did we feel unsafe. We used Veteran's Cab (one of the suggestions of the gracious staff) to take us to Hal and Mal's, and our driver Orlando also picked us up after the show and got us back to the hotel. Oh btw: the band we were there to see was staying at the Hampton also (hint), and we got to meet the elusive front man/brains behind the band in the lobby! Surreal! The trip was a birthday present for our son, so getting to actually meet him, chat with him, and get a picture as he stood in the lobby and drew just for my son was the best present ever, and worth every mile of the drive from SC! If we ever travel that way again, we will definitely stay at Hampton Inn And Suites Jackson-Coliseum. It is the perfect place to stay for a night while attending a show or local event!

Liked: Perfect place to stay for a night at a show or event. All in all an awesome experience!
Disliked: Not a pedestrian friendly area, but who cares. Call a cab! :)

Superb

Poor

Liked: Size of the room
Disliked: Room wasn?t clean

Passable

I would like to be...

Disliked: I booked and payed for a king SUITE through booking.com. When I arrived they gave me a regular king room. NO SUITE, NO SEPERATE SITTING AREA AS STATED

I enjoyed staying there

Liked: I liked the spacious room and how kind and nice the staff was. I enjoyed the box breakfast in the morning and the coffee. I liked that they checked on my vehicle as well. I'd definitely stay there again.
Disliked: I didn't have note pad and ink pen in the room, But I probably could have asked for it but usually in most hotels it already there.

Very good

My stay was excellent and...

Liked: We actually slept until check out, so we didn't get a chance to enjoy the breakfast. I traveled with my brother and his girlfriend and they actually ate. He enjoyed.
Disliked: The only thing I can think of that I didn't like was the fact we didn't stay longer. Next time I will be sure to book two nights instead of one.

Superb

Liked: Front desk attendants were efficient, room was clean and comfortable.
Disliked: The boxed breakfast wasn't very good. Not the best part of town.

Nope

Liked: We had a beautiful view of a vacant restaurant next door.
Disliked: It wasn?t Halloween but everyone was wearing mask.
