The whole place with the exception of the lobby appears to be a little tawdrey.It had good beds, a working mini-fridge...and very little hot water. (The water situation was cleared up by morning.
The free breakfast was hot, fresh and tasty...well presented and above average.
I would note that the attendant at the breakfast was very pleasant and helpfull

We had a room with two queens. It was clean and adequate to the purpose. the hotel's exercise room was decent, although one of the machines did not work. No ethernet port in the room, but the Wi-Fi worked okay.

The problem? The room layout placed a refrigerator essentially right next to one of the beds. Because the fridge cycles on and off, it is too noisy to be that close to a bed. Of course, I just unplugged it. But the hotel that would have gotten four stars was downgraded as a result. Really bad design. It could have gone elsewhere.

We stopped on our way down the Blue Ridge Parkway. We could not get a king bed so we settled for twin beds. The hallway smelled of smoke in the non-smoking hallway. The room was $99 dollars so the price was right. The room was somewhat dated. Service desk was nice and helpful.

Quite possibly one of my best stays. I spend up to 10 nights a month away from home, and I was very impressed by this location. Incredibly friendly staff,great breakfast, incredible rooms, and close to a lot of places to eat and shop (not that i ever have time for either, but it's nice in case I travel with my family)
