Great stop
Great place that is very convenient to Blacksburg. Convenient area, easy on and off 460 and 81. It’s an Econo Lodge, meets and exceeds our expectations of a motel. Thanks again.

The staff is amazing, the rooms are always clean & comfortable, overall it's quiet and we feel safe leaving tools on the back of the truck with it parked in eye sight. The breakfast selection is slim, but that's at most places these days.

For an economy hotel, this place was fantastic. Updated room that was clean with very helpful staff. Breakfast was more of a grab and go but great variety both mornings. Very safe and convenient area.
