This was an convenient inexpensive place to stay on my way to South Carolina, a clean comfortable room in an older motel.

After reading some reviews I was a lil hesitant but honestly it’s not that bad! The beds were a little hard so I can agree with the other comments there but honestly it was clean and a pretty easy location to get to! Checkin was a breeze and the staff was so nice! The only real complaint I had was that the ac was super loud for my kids and that the bath didn’t have a plug so I couldn’t give my baby a bath after 7 hours in a car but other than that it was great! Def staying here next time we pass through!

This is an older motel that has had a recent renovation. The motel was quaint and clean and the man at the front desk was very nice. The retro pink tiled bathroom was clean, but definitely gave a dated feel to the room. The bed was not very comfortable - quite firm and with a squeaky metal frame. We stayed here as a stop on a Blue Ridge Pkwy trip, so it was convenient for that.

Well worth the few days we were there

The ac was not working and neither was the bathroom light. Within five minutes The three friendly and helpful men that worked there came to the room and within twenty minutes the ac was replaced and the light was working.
The room was a few blocks from Main Street, a wonderful trail “galax to fries junction on the New River Trail state park”, and restaurants etc.
we were pleasantly surprised with the little town and the beauty of the mountains while we sat in front of the room.

Overall, I liked this property and would stay here again if I'm in that area again. The room was clean and the property was fairly well kept.

I had asked for a room to which I could back up my car since I had several large items in it I wanted to keep in my room over night. I was given a room that I could back up to, but there was a 6-foot slope between my room and the back of my car, so I had to schlep the items down to the steps to get them to and from my room.

There were no other guests in the immediate area, so it was nice and quiet. However, about 11:30 PM some folks checked into the next room. They weren't overly noisy or loud, but since they couldn't smoke in their room, they sat on chairs in front of their room and smoked, and the smoke came into my room through the open windows. I thought that perhaps the desk could have given them a room that wasn't right next to another guest since the motel was less than half full.

Bugs and Stink

Live spider on my pillow, dead bug next to the bed, dead fly in the breakfast refrigerator.

This room smelled so badly I could not sleep. I opened a window, only to find that the window lead to some kind of storage, which had noxious or septic fumes pouring out of it into the room.

Pubic hair in my bed sheets.

Continental breakfast consisted of coffee, Raisin Bran, Frosted Flakes, plain bread, Little Debbie's mini donuts, a little bit of milk left in a gallon jug, a little bit of Sunny D (not juice) in a gallon jug-- kept in a fridge that had a dead fly in it and appeared not to be defrosted for many months.

There was not even an apology given by owners/management when I told them there was a dead fly in the fridge.

Although there was apparent effort made to keep the place cleaned and maintained, there are fundamental issues not dealt with, causing most awful smells, and absolute penny pinching leading to absolute false advertising on the breakfast-- never seen anything like it.

The pool had been filled with dirt and turned into some kind of defunct garden.

The owners had some cooking going on on a propane stove outside that made the whole property smell like curry.

This place turned my stomach, and the memory of it makes me nauseated.

If you are the least bit sensitive to smells, do not stay here!

Not really worth it.

When they call a room a \"Double\", they mean \"one double bed\". Two beds is called a \"double room double bed.\". The clerk says that \"happens all the time\" and proceeds to charge you more for the room change which makes the deal not well worth it. Hotel is old, but mostly comfortable. It's a cheap room with cheap fixtures. Area is residential on the edge of town. Not directly off the main highway through town.
