Needs help
The beds were full size not queens as requested. The room was clean, and well kept. I was a little put off by having to park my car at the other end of the building from my room. I was also upset that the restaurant kitchen was closed for remodeling. We had stayed here a few years ago, and had fond memories of the restaurant. I hope it will be open again before our next visit. I hope in the future that whomever makes the decisions on the motel, reconsiders the coffee that is in the rooms, I know its complimentary but it is by far the worst coffee we ever tried to drink By all means if you need help choosing a new one please contact me.

We ended up leaving early and didn’t stay the 2nd night. The television didn’t work, no stoppers in bathtub, and the hair dryer was arcing when my wife tried to use it. Went to the front desk to talk about the issue and only suggestion was to switch rooms.

I reserved a bottom floor king room. Was given an upstairs double. The room was full of ladybugs. One bed would flip over when sat on. We ran out of towels and washcloths and were told there were no more. I had to doordash some so we could shower.

Do no stay here unless you carry a gun and a bottle of penicillin Needed room for unexpected family funeral Lobby dark. Nothing looks like the pictures Expedia advertised Never went into our room ...could not find could not see numbers on door There are no lights in lobby or porches Drove around twice. Then left for a safer hotel Pool closed No restaurant but there is a bar Rooms with furniture pulled out and men partying all over the grounds. Loud hollering and roaming about 2 cars up on blocks Later learned this is a local hangout Definitely not for famlies Manager refused to refund I suggest Travel Lodge in Low Moor or Hampton Inn or Douthat cabins

We are on the road to North Carolina and stopped when it got dark to sleep. We wanted to stay somewhere for a value. This room is non-smoking, but has an odor. The bed were made, and I didn't see any bed bugs. I did see bugs in the bathroom and dead ones on the carpet which was not vacuumed. I wish that we would have slept in the car instead.

Everything is worn out and looks unclean. The lobby looked like a messy living room not expecting company. The room had a noisy fridge, little square pillows and worn out bedding. A very loud live band was playing at check in with no application. All in all- like stepping into the Twilight Zone

Pleased
The room they put us in was recently remodeled. It was nice! I would call this a no-frills hotel, but for our purposes (hiking/photography trip) it was perfect. The hotel has a little convenience store kiosk near the main desk, has very nicely arranged furniture in the lobby, and was quiet for our stay. We'll be glad to remember this place for future mountain travels that involve western Virginia. Falling Spring Falls isn't too far away, neither is Douthat State Park and the George Washington National Forest.
