Not pleased.
The room was very outdated, the beds were hard as a rock and the covers were like sheets of paper. The breakfast was a joke, only good thing was the shower.
Way too overpriced as well. I get it it's a Va Tech game, but absolutely ridiculous price for one night.

The price was very cheap, so I didn't expect any bells or whistles. The front desk person was very nice, knowledgeable about the area, and easy to talk to. Check in and check out was no problem. The rooms were very spartan. The walls are thin. The front door and bathroom door both stuck a bit. Air conditioner worked great. It was fine for one night and great for the price. I felt safe. I would return.

The location to VT and right off 81 was good. 15 min from campus. Hotel is older, but it was clean and convenient. Our car was parked outside the room which was actually nice. Take and go breakfast was fine. We will stay here again without a doubt. Staff was really nice. Sheetz and Dunkin was in walking distance.

Very friendly staff at reception desk. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was just premade stuff, toast, cereal, yogurt, milk and juice. I would stay here again. It is very close to I81 so you do hear traffic noise from the highway.

For an economy hotel, this place was fantastic. Updated room that was clean with very helpful staff. Breakfast was more of a grab and go but great variety both mornings. Very safe and convenient area.

I made a reservation in advance. It was a football weekend so rates were jacked up. The "non-smoking" room I was given was obviously smoked in. It was awful. The desk clerk made me come back to the desk to give me another room, which meant re-packing everything back into the car. The second room smelled better, but it was upstairs - and that was ok - and it was quiet and nicer.
