The staff (Carla, Austin) and all others, provided excellent service and support during our stay. The room was clean and well-heated, which felt great when it was -3 degrees outside! The breakfast was adequate, given the circumstances. All of these observations are underscored by the very reasonable room rate. Great stay in Morgantown, and we'll be back!

The heat was broken in our room, but luckily we didn’t need it bc the blankets were warm. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The cookies they serve are delicious, we couldn’t get enough of them. The shower hose was leaking when we took a shower. Other than that, for a quick stay definitely worth the price.

Budget hotel but actually pretty nice. Rooms were very clean as was the lobby, and the front desk workers both days were friendly and efficient. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast is basic hotel breakfast and did offer some hot options, not just cold breads and cereals. Quiet location but within a couple miles of downtown Morgantown. Parking is ample.

Friendly staff but filthy

Our room was shabby (toilet rusted, leaky faucets, cabinet door off hinges) and very dirty (trash left on floors, hair in tub, grime on baseboards, floor and surfaces). What redeemed it at all was the friendly front desk staff, the location, and other guests were quiet.

The whole hotel had an odd smell, kinda musty and there was a full trash can on our floor that was not taken out the 2 days we stayed there. There was mold in the shower and our room had an unsettling smell as well. The staff was very nice and helpful when our room key did no work multiple times throughout our stay. Honestly would not stay here again.

Lobby had a weird smell kind of butter scotch maybe for Fall but it was overwhelming upon entry to the hotel. Room had muddy carpet, damp bath towels and empty shower gel. Shower was good, tv good, refrigerator froze all our drinks but fine. Price was okay on a game weekend. Hotel was filled with a construction crew and they were fine but everywhere. All corners of the hotel had exits and smokers..
