Use to be a microtel.

I was in Fairmont WV for business and just needed a place to stay. The room was clean but some of the linens and towels were getting dingy and in need of replacement. The TV was very small but I don't care about that. I did not stay for the breakfast so I can't speak to that. Overall a clean place to stay that was inexpensive with name food options close my.

Decent Hotel

The stay was good for the value. Room was small but was only me so it was ok. Bed comfortable but pillows were very uncomfortable. Close to many things.
Trina, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Just what we needed

We had a great nights stay. The staff was helpful, the room clean, and the bed great. We left an item in the room and called to ask if they found it. While we need to call back tomorrow when the room is cleaned, the woman at the dest was helpful and understanding. I needed that and a stay at a nice hotel after experiencing a nightmare stay earlier in the week.
Larry, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very basic hotel that is a bit dated and could use some maintenance. Wifi is spotty throughout the building. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Located close to a mall and numerous restaurants.

Average hotel

Bed was comfortable but lots of loud doors slamming starting before 6am. Minimal breakfast. Overall ok for what you pay.
Michael, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Hotel is a bit rundown, chipped paint, stains. The cleaning solvent was so strong when I walked in the room, what are they hiding? When I first went to my room, the key card didn’t work so I went back to the front desk and the receptionist told me “Oh, some of the handles you have to lift up to use” ummm why didn’t you tell me that before?
Jenna, 2-night trip

While this was not the most family-friendly hotel, the staff and management were very professional and attentive.

Quiet overnight

The young lady (Brea?) that checked us in was great. She was friendly, helpful and she never sat down as I was in and out for smoke breaks and saw her doing laundry, sweeping and washing the entrance and desk lobby area. I had difficulty getting in to the wifi and she put me on in my iPad. If I was a business owner, I’d hire her and make sure her wage was decent.

Loved the cleanliness, comfy beds, decent bathroom and good breakfast.

2/10 Poor

Terrible! We checked in &was told if the key don't work to try to push down on the handle & then up. I shouldve known then it was going to be bad. After 5 minutes, we got in. Dark brown walls & room Definitely outdated. But we can deal with that. There's a funny smell. We check the mattresses for bed bugs & the sheets. There was hair in 1 bed & the sheets were wrinkled & not clean. So we decide to sleep in 1 bed. Went to wash our hands & there's no soap or shampoo. We went & asked & she said it should be in the shower but I will give you some. We go back to the room & none was in the shower but we used what she gave us. We turn on the TV & cant get channels. I called the desk & she told me to try this&that. No success so she came up. She said she didn't know & would reset the Box & it should be good in 15 minutes. Nope! So we had no TV. We go to use the microwave & were blessed with previous guests nachos in it. Went to use fridge & again drinks & food. So those weren't cleaned either. The bed was very uncomfortable. Between the mattress & the smell it made for a bad night's sleep. We took a shower in the morning & find no hair dryer so I had to leave with wet hair while cold outside. The towels smelled funky. I wouldn't recommend this place & we certainly didnt get our money's worth. The place is in need of a refresh but most importantly better cleaning! The front desk lady was apologetic but for all my trouble no one even offered a little bit of money off my stay.

The place was great, the name change threw us when we were making the reservation. The only thing that was disappointing was that there were no sausages for breakfast, there was a spot for them but it was empty. Thank you!
