Excellent service from Richard at the front desk. After being disappointed by Motel 6 I called him up and he got me in a clean, comfy room right way! I was able to get in a good swim and chill undisturbed for the evening. Really needed this micro getaway. Thank you for making it great!

Hotel's Favorite
Eveyone at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were nie and big . The water pressure in the shower was great. I thought the room plaques were super cute. The breakfast was nice too. If you didnt like what they had you could walk to Wendy's or McDonalds to get something and Walmart was right across the street. The hotel was easy to get in and out of and located right off the highway.

Another trip to Virginia from Missouri, and another stop at The GuestHouse in Lexington, KY. We have yet to have a bad stay here and this is our 6th or 7th stay. This is, as the kids say, "Our Hotel". Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff were, per the usual, courteous and friendly. I tried to find some negatives and I did (mostly because I don't think any place is perfect). The area around the shower head wasn't completely painted, and there was no dirty clothes bag in the closet. That was it... Regardless of these glaring short-comings (read that with as much sarcasm as I intended), we will continue to keep this as "our" hotel.

FYI-For anyone that may be planning a trip to Lexington, KY and staying the night, I suggest you not consider GuestHouse-Lexington for your accommodations. We were there last Friday night to watch my Grandson play in the Final Four and made plans to stay the night at GuestHouse. We checked in late afternoon, changed clothes and left to go eat and go to the game. We arrived back at the hotel 10:30 or so and left the next morning around 8:00. The next day I looked at my bank account and noticed there were 2 charges from GuestHouse. One charge for the room, which I signed for and another charge for $50, which I did not sign for. I called the hotel on Monday afternoon and told them I had the extra charge and was told I was charged for two missing pillows. I said I did not take any pillows and ask to speak to the manager. I was told the manager was not “on-site”. I was told he should be in the next morning. The next morning I call and ask for the manager and was told he wasn’t “on-site” and should be in that afternoon. You get the picture….I made several calls and was told the same thing each time. I told the desk clerk this morning I would continue to call until I received a call from the manager. This afternoon I receive an email stating they would not reverse the charge. If this happened to me how many other times has it happened to others. By the way, I did not take any pillows. It offends me more to be called a thief than having $50 stolen from me.

If you’re older or schlepping little kids be aware there is no elevator. The room seems average, okay. The desk chair the back goes back, so far, it’s probably ready to break. Front desk staff was pleasant. No idea on the breakfast- just wanted to get this review done, to spare some other unsuspecting soul.

Wadsworth, Ohio46 contributions8 helpful votes
This hotel is budget friendly, but maybe not visitor friendly. It was very noisy all night, the walls are very thin and we heard everything down the the neighbor taking a shower. Our bed was really hard and I’m assuming no one has flipped these mattresses in a long time because there was a dent on both sides of it from where you lay. The bathroom was dingey and dated. The floors were sticky, which we thought was gross, even in the shower. You get some highway noise, as well as some air traffic noise. Yes, per other reviews there are water stains on the ceiling but nothing was actively leaking. Overall, you are better to spend a few extra dollars and stay down the street somewhere else.

This hotel is certainly unique. Kind of boutique like. It's small and very quaint. Check in was smooth with super friendly staff. The beds were comfy and the hotel smelled fresh and clean. Full breakfast on the weekends was good and plenty. Weekdays offered more continental style. I would say the only drawback was no elevator. But one of the employee helped carry my bags, so problem solved. I will definitely stay here again!

Hotel and room very clean. Average bed that I would not want to sleep on many nights. Budget style bathroom with plastic shower insert. Not thick towels and wash cloth with holes. Only two towel sets in the room. No coffee maker in the room, although there was coffee available 24/7 a few steps away. Small breakfast area (basic breakfast included). Small lobby. This is your average budget hotel right off I-75, with a top dollar price.

The reception people were very friendly and accommodating. They allowed for an early check in about 1;00 or so (our plane landed around 10am after 14 hours of flying) and when they discovered my family had a lot of luggage, they changed our room to a first floor room instead of a second. Their breakfast was a decent spread (no waffles, but bacon,sausage,eggs,b&g,oatmeal,yogurt,cereal,etc.) Our room was dated a bit but clean, and the air seemed humid but not unpleasant. The pool was small & only 3ft-5ft deep but heated and enjoyable for our family. All in all - more than I expected from what was rated a 2 star hotel. I wish I would have caught their names, but I did not.

The rooms are spacious and quiet. The breakfast is very marginal. The beds only have sheets and a thick comforter. I was either too hot or too cold. The location is convenient to the interstate and with restaurants nearby. There are many other hotels in the area.
