The staff was amazing but the facility itself is very dated and smelled of cigarette smoke. The room itself was dusty and not cleaned thoroughly.

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay at the Hillcrest. We absolutely loved being right across the street from the beach, the people watching from the front porch is incredible. They have some board games in the front area of the lobby over looking the ocean. The staff was kind & helpful. That said, this property is decrepit. It is in need of renovations that more than good cleaning can help. Our room was clean and the staff were nice and polite at check in. The beds are old, the sheets of low quality, the carpet old. We had a balcony overlooking the ocean, but your neighbours are on the same balcony, only separated by a fence. If they smoke, your room smells like smoke. When they make noise at night, you can hear EVERYTHING through the walls. This was an extremely inexpensive hotel room for Hampton Beach. We did not expect luxury, and appreciated the good qualities of our stay, but will pay more for thicker walls and better quality amenities next time. I’m writing this review to be honest about what you should expect from the price you pay, and to be appreciative of the staffs work.

Nice balcony, economy fixtures like bed frame, TV, no microwave in room, but one in lobby. Charming old building. Smokers on their balconies next door drifted right into our room, unfortunately. Staff was lovely and it came with a coveted parking spot! Right on the Hampton Beach strip, the description said 1/4 mile to "Hampton Beach", but it was more like walk across the road and right in the sand!

We loved that It was within walking distance to beach, restaurants and shopping. However, the bathroom was so small we had to sit side-saddle on toilet or we couldn't close the door. The sink was ouside the bathroom with no place to hang tour towel.

The best part has to be the gorgeous ocean views from the third floor, corner room we were given (#23). The whole hotel is pretty dated and has been there a long time. It seemed to me that our bathroom had some recent updates, though. Hampton Beach is just kind of run down in general. Our stay did nothing tonchange my mind about that.

4/10 Fair

would not recommend
Only stay here if there are no other options. It's a quaint old building but has not been updated in a long time. The floors were really crooked. The upholstered chairs in the room were ripped and stained. The bathroom baseboards had layers of dust. The bed was hard as a rock. There was no deadbolt on the door, just locking knob and a chain. I stopped myself from looking more into how dirty the room actually was. The linens are not changed daily, no house keeping at all during our stay. We had to ask for a new set of towels.
no deadbolt, and an adjoining door that only had a locking doorknob.
both chairs looked like this

The hotel was very tired. Room needs some TLC, including (not limited to!); broken screen door, air con cover falling off, bed mattress was uncomfortable and sheets wouldn’t stay on mattress, balcony adjoined other units that smoked and room smelt. Only good thing was the view.
