Room was nice, no real issues other than no coffee maker. Parking lot and entrance need a lot of maintenance. Property has no amenities but the location is convenient. Its a bit pricey for what is offered but overall not too bad.

Linens were clean but other areas of the room were questionable. No water on the second night and morning but they did refund that day. It appears they've attempted to keep the property up but details were very lacking.

There was a terrible smell in this room! The bed was like a hill in the middle. Second bed had a spread on it that had a large hole. It looked like it hadbeen chewed. I ended up going outand sleeping in my car at 3 am.

Family vacation stay
For $80 a night I was expecting something updated and without a loose toilet. The toilet was not secured to the floor, the gap under the door took two bath towels to block, but the staff was incredible.

Ok hotel, nasty diner!
Ok room. Paid for a queen sized bed and got a full sized bed. Small rooms. Amazing water pressure in the shower. Hardly any in the sink. Don’t eat at the diner though! Horrible, horrible, disgusting food!

I’ve never stayed in a motel this filthy. The bed was clean and comfortable, but the drapes and walls were just plain dirty.

We spent the weekend here visiting Washington and Lee University. It was clean, quiet, reasonably priced, and close by the university. We also, went to Natural Bridge and did a short hike. It was convenient having the Pink Cadillac diner right aside of the property. The food was good.

This is a no frills motel, but for a night or two it's ok. Staff was friendly and accommodating, rooms were pretty clean, beds comfortable, towels were old, but seemed clean.

Old, smokey, and in need of update
When reserving the room on Hotels.com, I reserved a no smoking room, but when I received confirmation and when I arrived, it was a smoking room. No notice from Hotels.com about the swap. The room was very old, needing update. sink in bathroom barely produced any water. no shampoo in room for shower and tiny bar of soap that us unusable
