Find the Cheap Fair Play Hotels

This was a nice hotel located just off I-85 interstate, in an area that looked and felt relatively safe, with several surrounding food establishments located nearby. If you are looking for something to do, and like shopping, there is an antiques mall just across the street. The hotel's hospitable staff made our stay as comfortable as possible and were perhaps among the nicest Hampton Inn employees we have ever encountered. The hotel looked and smelled clean. The pool area was nice, but sadly the water was not heated. There is a small business center area and a small workout room. There is a small store like area offering items that one could purchase if in general need. We did not take advantage of it, but it looked well stocked. Daily breakfast was good and standard for the Hampton Inn chain, offering a switch in the main menu items on a daily basis. Kudos to the breakfast attendants who were helpful, nice, and seemed to try very hard to keep everything adequately filled for the breakfast crowd. They did a great job! One breakfast attendant, (tall blonde lady whose name we did not catch) was extra friendly and helpful. Hot coffee, tea and hot chocolate are always available in the lobby. We do wish they offered flavored creamers for coffee, as other Hampton Inn's do, but sadly, they were not available. The room was clean, quiet, beds were fairly comfortable, and we all rested well. We did feel the hotel was a bit overpriced for the area, which might discourage some from choosing a stay here. We would return to this hotel, if in the area again, assuming the price did not climb even higher. We had a nice stay here.

For my recent trip to the Seneca/Clemson area, I decided on the Quality Inn of Seneca for my stay based in affordable rates and its Gold Award status with Choice Hotels. All in all, I was very pleased with my stay. This is a two-story, exterior corridor facility, and my first time at such a property since 2018. My room was 114, a king bed unit located on the first floor. The room was renovated fairly recently, as there was less wear and tear on the room and furniture than I've seen at other Quality Inns I've visited recently. The room was clean and everything worked fine aside from the typical Choice Hotel wi-fi that logs you off every few hours, even if it wasn't nearly as frequent as the location I stayed at last month. The bed was comfortable and the refrigerator was a larger than normal model. The room overall was excellent, and it was nice to be able to stay at a hotel and not have to report any issues or missing amenities to the front desk. Breakfast was okay, and could stand to be improved with bagels or perhaps even a meat option. Staff was excellent, and Amanda (day shift) assisted in getting an item returned to me that I had left in the room upon check-out. There's an outdoor pool on site. The Quality Inn of Seneca was an excellent hotel - don't pass it by simply because it's an exterior corridor facility. The room was clean, comfortable, and in better condition, maintenance-wise, than some newer hotels I've stayed at. And the staff is very helpful as well. I'd highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a well-kept, reasonably priced lodging option in the Seneca/Clemson vicinity.
