For the price they charge if you just need a place to sleep for the night, the room was clean and I really appreciated that the windows opened and there was an exhaust fan in the bathroom. There was a nice refrigerator and microwave and the television had many channels. It is an old building and is in desperate need of updating. The room was the smallest hotel room I've ever been in, but it worked for a place to sleep and the price was right. The front desk was accommodating. The neighborhood seemed very safe. Just be aware it's very old and run down.
Bedding was clean and we were too exhausted from travel to notice the rest until too late for our one night stay. There was no one at check-in for a couple of minutes. I felt unwelcome and afraid to try to find them for issues. Dirty bathtub, walls & ceiling in disrepair, nasty microwave with food debris. Ancient equipment. It’s like they didn’t even try to make it tolerable.
It was close to everything i was doing,but far enough away from city noise and no second floor noise like other motels i e stayed in

We ended up here as there were no rooms available in Lynchburg. I do not usually stay in out of the way motels. This was not a great place but the rooms were clean and the personnel friendly and responsive.
A perfect place for staying overnight. Very very friendly. Clean room. Quiet. The best place I've ever seen for parking with a big trailer!!

We stayed here for a night it was a half way point of are trip and wanted to go see the History of land Bridge the room was clean and all linens were great it is an older hotel so did show signs of being a 30-40 year old motel but for the money this was a great spot to sleep for the night after spending the Day at the State Park 3 mins down the road!!!

The room was clean. Bed was very comfortable, but very noisy. No phone in room. Needed a second trash can. Overall good 2 night stay.
We stopped spur.of the moment off the side of road. Hubby felt drained. We checked in with no problems or advance notice. Room was clean and comfortable.

Overall okay for one night ! The AC unit is quiet, the room has a reclining chair plus a desk with chair. The vanity is slow draining and the tub shows it’s age.
The gentleman at the front desk was very nice. The room didn't look that bad at first but the TV didn't work, There was no coffee maker, and there was mold on the shower curtain, and someone spilled something in the mini fridge and no one cleaned it up. I got on my phone and made another reservation at a better hotel not to far away.
Older hotel. Stayed in upstairs queen room. Mini fridge, but no microwave. Advertised tub in room, only walk in shower. TV would turn on, yet no picture. When picture came on it took 20 minutes to boot a small segment of the movie/show. Informed management, but was not fixed. Internet extremely slow.
If you are wanting a place to sleep and a hot shower with no frills, this is a good place at a very reasonable price.

We had to wait almost an hour for someone to showup to sign in.
Run down not like pictures. No one was there to check me in. I waited an hour called hotel several times no answer . Finally found another guest who was able to contact owner so I could check in . Room smelled and tub in bathroom was sinking into floor . Will not be back
The condition was poor. The convenience to local interest was excellent. There were stink bugs in the overhead vents and lights.

The place is very close to the natural bridge, (4mi) and close enough to Lexington as well. The rooms are a bit dated, the bed had a burn mark (non smoking room...?) and it allows pets. The room next door had a dog that kept barking every time I moved around my room. There are probably better options out there.

It served our purposes well. Kind of a blast from the past in a good way. Pillows kind of skinny. Would visit again.
