Quiet and relaxing atmosphere with ample free parking. Breakfast was surprisingly very good. Nice to see the departure of individual bottles of bathroom essentials in the room for easily accessible refillable Dove products.

The area is nice, but the location sometimes makes it hard to enter the highway. They hotel was clean, but there are not alot of ammenities within the hotel. Dunkin doughnuts is in the parking lot as well as a restaurant, so that helped. It is close to everything with 30 minutes. Breakfast is the normal hotel stuff and wasnt bad.

great amenities. Very comfortable, clean and friendly. Omly 2 small complaints: asked for wake-up call' never got it I was awake anyways so it did not matter but I did need to be on the road on time so if I wasn't awake, it would have been a big problem for making my meeting on time. No fruit except apples and oranges at breakfast - no bananas or chunk fruit

When we check in we got to our floor it was so hot getting in the room the ac didn’t work they said to go out do what we needed and if we come back and it’s not working to come back downstairs. The pool wasn’t open that was one of main reasons picking here so that was a disappointment. We came back to the room and it was hotter than when we left so they did move us to a different room

The room was dirty, wrappers had been left out and the coffee packs with the stirring sticks/cream/sugar were already opened with items removed. The bathtub has hair in it and felt gunky. Staff was snippy and rude the few times I did see them. The AC in the room made banging noises every few minutes, making it hard to stay asleep. Overall, really not a great experience.

This hotel is centrally located for all that we wanted to do, between hiking trails off Skyline Drive to antiquing at the multitude of antique malls and shops in the area. The hotel has been consistently clean, quiet and in very good condition over the several years we have been visiting the area. Management is especially responsive to suggestions and happy to assist guests in any way they can. Kudoes to Jaime for being a wonderful asset!

Bathroom had hair in floor and behind door. Soap dispenser in shower empty. Couldn’t sleep most of night since there was a loud sound all night in room. (Video attached).Phone on bedside stand had static sound coming out of it on and off all night. Could hear doors slamming and people walking all night. Would not be my first choice of hotels next time we go to visit sister in law. Staff at front desk were nice.

We were given a room next to the kitchen that should never have anyone in!!! 5:00am Banging in kitchen started and Metal cart that is used to transport breakfast products Up & down a TILE floor with grooves in it. Extremely loud! I booked this hotel for 3 days for a family function. When I asked front desk to please move us? I was told they were booked, kitchen lady was extremely snippy & front desk person was not much better. I asked nicely is someone checked out could We pease be move! Assures it was not going to happen that was was lucky breakfast starts an hour later at 7:00 so I’m lucky the noise would be an hour later. Not what I would expect from A Hilton employee!! I know if it were my hotel I would not want these people there. I can assure there was no attempt from them to be Nice or helpful. I paid an unfair amount of money to be treated like this & not sleep for three days. I will never stay at a Hilton hotel again

Staff was so friendly. The room was not as advertised. I requested an accessible suite. There was no way a rolator walker or wheel chair could get into the bathroom. The "suite" had a sofa but no club chairs...just empty space. Our friends could not attend due to illness, so thank goodness we did not need to host them in our room before our New Years Eve event.

Check in was smooth and room was comfortable. Bathroom was dated and needed some repair. Commode seat was cracked and signs of age in the bathroom in corners of tub. There was a family reunion in the area and many stayed at this hotel so lots of kids and hallway noise at night but I travel with white noise maker so not a big problem. I will stay here again if in the area.

Everything was great overall (clean, excellent room conditions, great breakfast and service). The only thing that could have been better: sound-proof room doors with hallway. Too noisy, especially when clients come back drunk and loud between midnight and 2 am... in total disrespect of others.

After a very long travel day and upon check in I was told that the room reserved was not available and I would need to pay more for a suite that was available. I questioned the fairness of this policy as it was not our fault. I was then told by desk recep that checkin availability is not guaranteed as a policy. After again questioning this policy she made a phone call and miraculously located a room that I had originally paid for! Left a very bad taste in terms of customer service and honesty.

The hotel was safe and Nicole who checked us in was very friendly and helpful. There were a lot of construction workers staying on the first floor and mud was constantly in the hall and dining area. Breakfast was below average and not attended properly. Nicole had to go find the person in charge of the food to replenish. You night front staff was very rude.

I was especially impressed with “Tanner”. He greeted me each day and was extra courteous to ensure I was taken care of. He ensured my Executive Suite was the one I wanted and promptly was able to check me in. I’ll be visiting this area often from VB, and would like to make this place my stay.

Property was clean, housekeeping responsive. Ok complementary breakfast; coffee was good too. Some mixups at check in but all was resolved. Biggest frustration was finding the motel -GPS was incorrect; a more visible sign from the road would have helped a great deal. We would stay there again(especially now that we know how to find it!).
