There is a lot to like about this hotel. First, the obvious. Yes, it is in the middle of no where…read more Things in the middle of no where tend to not be as shinny and bedazzled as the same thing in more populated areas. While the outside of the building looks like a smaller and less bedazzled building, it's in good shape and well maintained. The same is true for the rooms. Everything is plenty fine, clean, orderly, and not in any kind of state of disrepair. Staff is very nice and the hallways are clean and free of smells. It's a quiet place despite being right next to the interstate. The breakfast area is small, but it does a great job with what they have. They have folded egg omelets, Jimmy Dean sausage, make-your-own waffles, cereals, juices, fruits, carbs, etc. There is a small workout room as well. Next door is a Subway and gas station with typical convenience store items, and across the street is a home cooking' restaurant that locals seem to like. Driving south 4 miles or so will take you into Marion where there are many restaurants, Walmart, and other stores common in small towns. This motel is also about 4 miles from the Mount Rogers Recreation Headquarters and access to the Appalachian Trail. Bottom line, there is a lot to like about this model and they do the most they can with it.

You can take Ellen's Stardust Diner in NYC if you want, but I'll just visit Damascus Old Mill again…read moresoon. I didn't think dinner could get better than my juicy grilled pork chop, but then our waitress sang a song!!! We were seated in the large dining room with Richie Kennedy playing instrumentals on the piano. Everyone was enjoying their food, the atmosphere was cozy, and our waitress Fallyn Grace Presley decided to take a break and sing a song with the piano man... Outstanding. Now back to my pork chop for a moment. What a great grilled flavor, and the right amount of sweetness from the blackberry glaze The only thing left on my plate was the bone, and it was calling my name. So I forgot that I was in a public restaurant, with a big beard, I shoved it in my face and picked it clean. I never cease to be amazed at the incredible community I'm part of. Richie was kind enough to let my son play a piece as well. Thanks to everyone at the Damascus Old Mill for being such a big part of what makes Damascus ICONIC.

I was okay with the halls being a little on the warm side, but the room itself was too warm when I got in and it took the AC long enough to get down to sleeping temperature that I didn't have as smooth a night as I was hoping. The shower wasn't the greatest, with the head spraying too widely and being hard to keep under control. Abingdon is a nice area, but the hotel was just okay.

Our visit was 21-23 SEP, in town to enjoy the VA Creeper Rail to Trail. Our room was clean, in fact the whole property inside and out was practically spotless. The breakfast was well stocked each morning, good choices for a healthy robust meal to fuel long rides. We had the pool to ourselves each afternoon, it was spotless and just "warm" enough to be refreshing and restorative to our old bones. The daytime desk manager was delightful! She was engaging, and informative about the area, great resturant picks. They made a conference room available to store our bikes rather than having to lug them up to the room (but they were okay with that as well had we chosen to do so). I would absolutely stay here again if in the area.

There's a great indoor and outdoor space for sitting. These are also great spaces for when indulging in the free breakfast. The breakfast is an amazing value and it is tasty.

Don't look under the mattresses....you will for sure not sleep. We are too tired from driving to leave. I wouldn't use their blankets as there is hair and cigarette burns on it. I really wanted to be positive on here but if you don't like dirty rooms or a bug in the bed will make you itch all night, keep driving. The hotel is pretty dated which is fine, it's the yellow water stains on the ceiling and gunk on walls that bothers me. The AC is working great and not as noisy as you expect in a minimalist hotel room.
