Quality Inn Gallipolis

8/10 Good
"Breakfast is served to you and you have a choice of items. Good food. The hotel was packed with construction guys working on a data center. They were well behaved but the key point is they could have stayed elsewhere. So, the motel is a good value. The hotel has conference rooms, a restaurant and lounge. These are a bit dated and could stand some upgrades"

"The room was good, not exceptional, but this is rated as a 2 star motel. Continental breakfast served 6-10am. There was ample free parking. Staff was friendly and helpful. Because we stayed during the mothman festival weekend, I felt the room was way overpriced, although it was very convenient to get to Point Pleasant."

Secluded Wilderness Lodge in Athens OH w/ hot tub

10/10 Excellent
"Ours (just 2 of us) was a last-minute, week day (week after Labor Day) booking, with temperatures in the high 80's. I was delighted that the pool was still uncovered and was serviced the following day. We spent all that day "at the beach" in the wilderness cabin. Most anything we needed for the kitchen, minus the food, was provided, including a propane grill on the porch by the pool, Linens and towels were clean, A/C in every bedroom (5 of them!), and my husband and I had the cabin to ourselves. The dining room table was huge, as was the picnic table outside; meant for a large number of guests. The stars were impressive from the hot tub; we could see so many (being on unlined back roads in the "sticks" where ambient light is minimal). Our stay was a quick visit, so we did not do any hiking or ATV riding, though the posters in the cabin had great recommendations. I tried to book an additional day, but unfortunately they were unable to take that reservation. Highly recommend this cabin and look forward to our next adventure here."
