This review was hard because there many pros surrounding the hotel, but it’s also engulfed in many cons...here is my comprehensive review.
PROS
Location, Location, Location!
-There are many different places to eat here. Including an applebees, hardees, Mexican restaurant, and pizza place!
-Movie theater-CHEAP THEATER, plays movies that are 5-6 months old…cost between 75 cents and $2!!! Can’t beat it!!!!
-Shops-TJ MAXX. Sweet.
-Adjacent to University. Excellent for campus visits for family and friends.
Staff- Great staff. They get that” it’s a sleep inn”, and they really do their best to make it feel more like an upgraded hotel. They will be to the airport fast for a pick up, and will make cookies for you on request! So…therefore, Kudos to the staff here!!!
CONS
It's a sleep Inn-problems with the internet. If you have an ipod or ipad...make sure you have the CURRENT update. otherwise you will NOT be able to connect to the internet here!
It’s a sleep Inn-uncomfortable beds. Very hard with limited padding. They are either really cheap, or old. Can’t figure it out. Two times, mine had urine stains on them.
It’s a sleep Inn-Thin sheets. Two sheets. One is the old fashion thicker sheet. (Once again, they are either really cheap or really old, mine had holes in them)
It’s a sleep Inn-No flat screens (not a huge deal to me…but it’s a sleep Inn)
It’s a sleep Inn-THIN WALLS! Biggest complaint of the hotel and nothing that the current staff or manager could fix without rebuilding the place. So not their faults…however, I could hear the person next door hang clothes on their hanger! That is how thin they are! T.V. noise is common as well. I have had a hard time sleeping here. I couldn’t imagine this hotel full with all the noise you would be hearing
It’s a sleep Inn-small workout room. Treadmill skips (be careful).
It’s a sleep Inn-Funky room design. Inspired by the late 1980s and brought into the 21st century. Wouldn’t enjoy this room too much if I had to stay in it for more than a night.
It’s a sleep Inn-Breakfast—It wasn’t terrible…just wasn’t impressed.
It’s a sleep Inn-smoking rooms…not a fan. Great if you smoke. Bad if you don’t
Overall, you can see the cons far outweigh the pros. If you can handle the crummy night of sleep from the noise and the bed, then this hotel is for you…this is the sacrifice for the location of the food, movie theater, and shopping. However, keep in mind, there are other hotels (not to be biased and name specific names) right next to the Lynchburg mall!!!!
