Clean linen and a very very comfortable!
Tamarcus, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our first room appeared to have soiled sheets. Front desk switched rooms quickly with no problems. Rooms were pretty clean. Bathroom was clean except the tile and caulking around the tub had significant mildew. Shower curtain bar was drooping down preventing the curtain from staying closed( causing water spraying on the floor). A breakfast sandwich and burrito would be a nice addition.

William, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Our bathtub had a horrible grime ring and wouldn’t drain, though water pressure was good. We had a horrible time with the keycard access and had to come down multiple times for help to get into our room. The mattresses were comfortable but the hotel itself is very dated and in need of repair in areas of painting, toilets (ours wouldn’t stop running on its own) and the breakfast area is just so dark.

While the years have taken their toll on all of historic Lynchburg, you can tell that this was once the grande dame of the city. The staff was so friendly and super accommodating to my needs during my stay, as I was trying to take care of a relative. I will definitely stay here again!

Hotel needs to be updated. Our tub didn’t drain. The outlet in the bathroom was not connected.
