Nice hotel!
Really nice hotel in the New River Valley - I joined their parents club which is offered if you have a kid attending either Radford or VA Tech. The food is delicious and it's actually reasonably close to Blacksburg.

Very clean. Staff is excellent. Comes with a nice breakfast. But save your money on the Blue Ridge view, there is only a distant sight line. View is only of University roof tops.

Nice summer break
Nice modern hotel. Room was clean, had a nice desk for working and a comfortable “lounge” chair. The breakfast experience would have be benefited from an additional staff member - with only one she was VERY busy both trying to take orders and prepare them Enjoyed the bar in the evening, nice rooftop deck too

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
There was a malfunctioning light that ran across the headboards that flashed like a strobe all night long, and kept me awake. The manager was not on site when we checked out and has refused to contact me or issue a refund. Also, no one was available at the restaurant when we wanted to purchase breakfast.
