5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

I have stayed at this hotel for a few times now. Everyone is always very polite and helpful. Great Staff... Very nice break fast in the morning. Location of the hotel is rite off the highway which is convenient for me.
Every time front desk personnel were friendly and attentive and great to talk to.
very clean, affordable and friendly hotel... a pleasant and refreshing feel like home place.

Very clean and welcoming hotel. A little out of the way from Lynchburgh, but more than makes up for it with great hot breakfast, extremely efficient and friendly staff and excellent facility. This was our third stay at these hotel on last two months.

Really impressed with the teamwork attititude of the staff, they really understand that they are there to serve the guests.

Room Tip: All rooms are on best location

“Not worth it!!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 October 2011

I called to make a reservation at what I thought was a Holiday Inn Express, the person who answered the phone just said "hello". I asked if it was indeed a Holiday Inn Express and was told yes. I made my reservation and drove to the hotel. When I found out it was a Days Inn I was going to go somewhere else, but found out that a hold had been placed on my funds so I stayed. Instead of paying the $94.99 going rate for the room I was charged $199.99, after tax it came to $220.00. The room was large and comfortable, but the whirlpool tub had mold in the jets so it was unusable.
Breakfast the next morning was the usual fare of different breads, eggs, gravy, bacon, sausage, self made waffles (when there was batter), apples, juices and cereal. They kept running out of coffee and would only replenish the food items when someone asked. They also ran out of syrup.
This used to be a Holiday Inn Express, but had been sold and taken over by Days Inn that day.
There is no pool but there is an exercise room. The internet service was poor and kept dropping. There are NO ELEVATORS, and they do not tell you that it is a pet friendly hotel (not sure if it was before)

Room Tip: We had a room that faced the main highway, but you could not hear car noise and when a firetruck wen...

“Stink Bug Infestation!!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 October 2010

We've stayed here before and liked it very much but our latest experience was horrible! We got in really late and the room was hot so when I went to turn on the air, my hand almost touched several bugs crawling around the unit! I gasped and then looked up to see at least 60 stink bugs on the window and ceiling!

We called and was given a room that had only one bug on the wall. However, by morning when we opened the curtains, there were 20 on the window. I could not wait to get out of there! The hairdryer did not work and called the front desk who said they'd get one to us but it never came. When we left, we saw thousands of stink bugs in the ceiling corridor. Uuugh! I hope we don't have to stay there again!!!
