The Hampton Inn Marathon - Florida Keys offers a well-located option, though its consistent quality has become a concern. My recent stay from June 5th to June 6th revealed a noticeable decline compared to prior visits.
While the property still provides essential amenities such as complimentary hot breakfast, an outdoor pool with a tiki bar, and a fitness center, the overall cleanliness and quality have unfortunately deteriorated. Specific issues noted include a general lack of cleanliness, outdated bathroom fixtures (e.g., shower curtains), and a noticeable need for refurbishment, particularly regarding paint and general upkeep. This decline in quality is disheartening for a property that once met higher standards.
For those seeking efficiency and quality in their travel, it is important to be aware of these current inconsistencies. While the location remains advantageous for exploring Marathon, including nearby fishing charters, Sombrero Beach, and the Dolphin Research Center, the hotel's diminishing quality and cleanliness may impact the guest experience.
