We stayed here when passing thru Virginia to head to South Carolina - This is an older hotel but very clean and good sized room and bed was comfortable, air conditioning set just right. We especially liked the continental breakfast spread set up by Pat and conversation with other friendly staff. Pat has been working here for 30 years and said new owners planning renovations. Parking was convenient next to the hotel with east side door entry. We did not get a chance to explore downtown, but hotel is located across from the performing arts theater - art deco and historic buildings nearby with various shops and some restaurants that we saw as we drove past. Affordable stay and we do recommend.

When we arrived, the lobby was very hot, humid, and smelled badly. We had to come back later to check in and decided not to check in at all due to the interaction with staff and conditions in the lobby.

Sadly our room had no hot water, not even warm. Our friend who stayed a level lower, said after 15 minutes letting the water run, she had luke warm water. The phone in our room also was in not working codition. The room smelled heavily of mildew and you could see how the wallpaper is coming off. The bathroom floor was not really clean but The bed was super comfortable. And a nice feature is that there is a microwave and a fridge with freezer inside the room. We called it in the night we stayed,(with our cellphone, due to the room phone was not working) And the lady sad it is normal to leave the water running for at least 15 minutes to get warm water. The amount of wasted water and the water bill for the owners must be horrendous. Beside that everbody who worked there was very nice and friendly. The location is fantastic.

Absolutely disgusting hotel. Original room was filthy and full of black mold from the furniture to the carpet including the vents. bathroom had pink mold. I was switched to 3 different rooms. All of the rooms were in the same condition. We refused to stay and had to book a different hotel. Definitely unsafe. Only good thing i can say is the staff was extremely nice and accommodating and tried everything in their power to give me a better experience.

We've stayed here before and understand what condition the hotel is in. We stay here for overnight trips because the price is right. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are clean. This time, the shower in our room didn't work. We made do and informed the front desk attendant when we checked out. The attendant just said that she'd let maintenance know. We expected an apology of some sort and gratitude for letting them know. Just total lacking of basic customer service.
