Staff was wonderful--very helpful. Without them commenting on their situation, I got the impression they are used to performing miracles to keep the place going. They were using a backup credit card reader because the "good" one wasn't working. Our room had a power strip and a refrigerator that didn't work. They referred both repairs to the maintenance man, who was just arriving as I checked out.
Easy on and off the highway for travelers. Clean room, reasonable rates, accommodating staff. Easy access to food and fuel nearby (although I was disappointed the brewpub wasn't open the day I stayed--but you guys can't control that).
Very dirty. Felt like we were at a motel that rented rooms by the hour. Laid down on the bed and slept for a couple hours. We were very sleepy. Also didn't feel very secure. Didn't use the shower because it was too dirty. The floor was laminate and would look nice if they would scrub them. Wore our shoes even when we were sleeping.
This motel belongs to a chain that I recognize for clean, quiet, well-maintained, budget priced properties. As an allergy sufferer, I love the hard floors and lack of other dust-catching, mold-growing surfaces. I stay at Motel 6 whenever I can. Next time, however, I would try the Cross Lanes Motel 6. That dingy, dumpy room was just too depressing.
A bright spot was the location, which was excellent. Restaurants, a gas station, and a Family Dollar were all within easy walking distance. It's just a few miles from WV state government offices, where I had business to take care of.
Now for the bad news. I suspect the owners are unwilling or unable to spend the money needed to run a nice motel. The building is overdue for a facelift. Textured paint has chipped away from the interior of the elevator door. The balcony railing shows major rust stains bleeding through the stucco/paint. The wall of that same second floor balcony has ugly splashes of an unidentified brown substance (coffee? mud? bodily fluids?) that greet the weary traveler who enters the second floor balcony from the hallway.
Excellent service and accommodations. I've recommended this Motel to all of my out of town/state friends and family and they've assured me that they'll be using your services for ALL future services!!! Again, a tremendous thank you!!
My room was as clean as a daily cleaning could get it, but the bathtub needed a new non-slip surface. It was so gray and worn, I spent as little time in the shower as possible, even though the water was hot and the water pressure was great. The floor was as clean as a quick damp mopping could get it, but I could see that staffing is never robust enough to allow for a good scrubbing. The mattress was OK and the bedding was clean, but the bedspread had a hole in it. The card that contains information about laundry was ancient--creased and worn. The ice bucket had cracks in the bottom, and no plastic liner was supplied. I was glad I hadn't brought back dinner leftovers to put in the nonworking fridge, since I wouldn't have been able to keep ice easily, either.
Room 203: The sink faucet was not working as in no water. Had to get water from shower to brush teeth, etc. Strand of hair on toilet bowl. Crumbs on bed before either of us could even sit on it. There were vacant rooms at ground floor facing road/alongside main office but receptionist initially insisted on rooms facing back wall which had a creepy enough pathway and no sight of car from there. We entered her first choice (rooms facing back wall) but after inspecting it, I insisted, in turn, for a second floor or any room facing front of motel/main street. Not worth $49/night at all.
