Pros

“This is a no-frills option geared towards unpretentious travellers-especially those with dogs. It's an older building, but the location has real upsides: beautiful mountain views and proximity to the Virginia Horse Center. It's an affordable choice, especially given the free breakfast and ample parking for larger vehicles.”

I was really pleased with my stay at this hotel, especially for the rate of $65 a night. The check-in process was quick and the rooms, although basic, were clean and comfortable. The breakfast included was a nice bonus, though the options were somewhat limited. Unfortunately, the bathroom could use some updating, but overall, this hotel is a great option for those traveling on a budget, especially with dog-friendly accommodations available.
