Clean, well maintained and friendly staff!
The hotel was very nice and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was very good. The building was clearly well kept and I also appreciated the free water bottle filler in the fitness center. Conveniently located nearby the VT campus.

First time I stay at this Holiday Inn. I stayed here as I was moving in my son into an apartment for his Sophomore year at Virginia Tech. Will definitely stay here again as it is only a few minutes from the campus and the main street in Blacksburg

Room was great, property was good. The breakfast was not so good-especially the eggs. The one elevator seemed to have some issues. But overall I’d stay here again
