Nothing was said by ancient historians about whether Claudius was popular with the people. His closest advisor burnt all Claudius' letters before he was murdered. Suetonius and Tacitus portrayed him as a weak fool controlled his inner circle he supposedly ruled. Both writers were sympathetic to the senators, who had been in conflict with Claudius, and thus biased. Suetonius, lost access to the archives and relied on second hand information. Cassius Dio, who relied on the two mentioned historians as his sources, painted the same picture. Not much was said about his rule and his personality.

Why does Hamlet not kill the king in act 3?
Well, the basic reason is that they're not in the Chapel. The setting is Claudius's private room, the King's Room. That's stated in the play dialogue. Guildenstern says it: "(the king) is in his retirement..." It's reference to the place Claudius retires for the night, his private quarters. When Claudius left the 'Mousetrap' play, he went to his own room. Claudius prays during the scene, and apparently the idea of praying has led some people to think the scene is in the Chapel, however, the actual play dialogue tells us otherwise. People don't have to be in a chapel to pray, and many people pray in their own rooms, of course, which is what Claudius does. Hamlet is discouraged from killing Claudius because he finds Claudius praying. Hamlet is afraid that if he kills Claudius at prayer, Claudius's soul will go straight to Heaven. However, the Ghost said, or very strongly implied, that the soul of Hamlet's father was in Purgatory. Hamlet doesn't see it as fair, that he could send Claudius to Heaven, when his own father is in Purgatory. Hamlet decides to wait for another opportunity later, when there's less chance of sending Claudius's soul to Heaven.
