What guests think

At Marlinton Motor Inn, travelers describe a basic, budget-friendly motel with spacious yet dated rooms, friendly service, and a scenic setting near Snowshoe and trails, while cleanliness feedback and noise levels vary from very good to occasionally problematic.

Guests highlight mountain views and value, though Wi-Fi reliability differs by room.

Location was good for my trip. Large room. Clean large pool. Pretty views of mountains. Comfortable bed, good AC. Felt very safe. Family friendly. Frig in room. No microwave. Advertises jacuzzi, lounge neither open. Check in process was pretty old fashioned. Mostly handwritten, line backed up as only one on duty. But friendly just took longer. Pool was hard to find. Since I had asked how late it was open would have nice to be told where it was. It was very hidden away no where near my room. Had to go ask where it was. Did have pool towels in pool area. Curtains blow up and a bit open while AC runs maybe add some weights to bottom of them? No food options too close but gas station, conveience store next door.

The room was clean and very spacious . The problem was the smell. I smelled musty and old. Also I had to kill a roach that was on the dresser. We had to put our suit case back in the car overnight. We checked the closet and the drawers in the dresser, but did not find anymore bugs.

Room was dirty - crumbs on table, night stands & floor, hair on toilet & bathtub. None of us would even shower there. Bed was like a board, and both my husband's feet and my own hung off the bed. Staff was friendly, but super busy, and not there when we tried to check out in the morning. Had to ring the bell multiple times to get assistance. Cost for the night was pricey, considering.

Cons: Outdated room & furniture Small television Not many outlets/no usb ports No microwave Hard pillows Toilet took forever to fill Pros: Clean clean clean Ice cold mini fridge Good closet space Plenty of parking Lounge with food on property Just 3 miles from downtown Marlinton Although it's not a modern place, it's a clean & safe place to stay and I'll stay here again.

The room was nice clean and updated. However other hotel guests camped out along the front of the motel playing cards late into the night rather than doing so in the motel rooms. We could hear them talking and laughing. Our room was on the ground floor. We could hear the floor or bed creaking every time the hotel guests in the room above us moved and it was very loud and made it difficult to fall asleep when combined with the guests outside our door playing cards. I won’t be vack

Don’t judge a book by its cover—the outside of this old style motor court may not look too inviting and maybe appears a bit shabby—but the rooms are large, super clean and there’s a great view of the mountains out the room’s rear-facing picture window. Very comfy beds. microfridge and coffee maker, but the only microwave is located in the lobby (?). Fast, free internet worked well. Nice looking swimming pool but closed for the season. It’s directly on the highway yet I heard no traffic noise at all. Desk clerk checking me in needs to learn how to smile and not act so gruff and irritable. Can’t beat the price per night, therefore this fact made me ignore the admittedly spartan environment. Restaurants are a few miles away in March tin (the Greenbrier Grille or Alfredo’s Italian are okay, nothing to write home about, but adequate). Beautiful mountain scenery!

This was my second stay at the Marinton motor lodge. Great location if looking to go skiing at Snowshoe (30 min drive).Very quaint and quiet place. The rooms are just right. Plain and simple with a cabin like appeal. The only thing I wish were the bar/restaurant would be open more days than just Thur/Fri/Sat. Other than that I will definitely be back to stay again.
