Other than what seemed like an elephant in the room above me which isn’t the fault of the hotel, my stay was amazing. Clean room. Friendly staff. Pool is very clean. This is my new “go to” when visiting WV.
Pool area managed well, room clean upon arrival, staff friendly, hotel surrounded by lots of stores for convenience. Will return if ever visiting West Virginia again
The beds were clean, the shower floor was not very clean. I had to clean it up before I showered. Staff was friendly, breakfast was great. The area outside was a bit sketchy.
Hotel offered us $50 off our room due to our door LOCK not functioning properly. We were traveling with our children, it was late at night and this was the only room they had available for us. Half of the outlets did not work in the room. Terrible.
