Radford Vacations from $755

We just needed a place to lay our head and get up the next morning early to drive again. The room was clean enough. The manager was nice and worked hard to get our room ready. The room smelled fine. The hotel sets close to a highway and you can hear traffic.

The location to the downtown shops and restaurants was wonderful. Parking was easy in offsite garage. Overall, the hotel was just okay. Not luxurious as stated in their description. The folks at reception were not very friendly. I expressed disappointment when they told me I wouldn’t get points for the stay (on their rewards site) because I booked through a third party. Makes no sense. On checkout, I asked again and the young lady told me I would get premium benefits from Expedia, such as an upgrade! This was not told to me at check-in! The hotel is unique, having been a bank. Although the lobby area isn’t large, it was fine for our group of 7 to meet and talk. However, the sofas were very worn and not clean; dirt and debris on the inside between cushion and sofa. The woman bartending was very friendly. Our room was large enough for two comfortable chairs and a small table but it only had one small chair. No other place to sit except the bed, which I don’t like to do in street clothes. There was only one luggage rack; I put my suitcase on the small “footstool” chair for the desk. Luxurious would have comfortable chairs (for two people) and plenty of space for open luggage. The bathroom was very nice; updated with two sinks. This morning we ate at the hotel and the young man was doing his best to take orders, cook and take payment. Food tho was mediocre. Bottomline, we would not stay there again. Too expensive and in need of attention to call it luxurious.

I’ve stayed in many inns& this is a nice inn. But it could be better. On arrival, the grass was a bit overgrown. However, it did get mowed the next day (Saturday). A vacuum cleaner was left in the hallway, & a ladder was left open in another hallway. The owner‘s daughter was getting married the following day so understandable that it was a busy time. But with a business partner, these small things could have been avoided. Breakfast was included in the room rate. They advertise that the breakfast is made to order. Mine may have been made to order, but it looked and tasted like it was made hours earlier. It was just okay. On my second day, they forgot to prepare breakfast for me and gave me $24 to compensate. The room is nicely furnished, but one of the lamps was defective. Both were turned on and off by touch. On one lamp, I touched in every location to turn the lamp on and off to the point that my finger was uncomfortable, and I gave up on trying to find the right place to turn it off with touch and had to loosen the bulb to get the light turned off. The ceiling fan light is also defective. Twice in the middle of the night, the light came on and I had to get up and dabble with the remote to get it turned off which was a sleep interruption. I recommend that they put at least one bottle of water in the refrigerator for guests along with tissues in the bathroom. Front porch is nice! I rate it an 8.0.
