Top Old Town Galax Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn & Suites Hillsville I-77

8/10 Good

"A really nice hotel at a great price. Easy and convenient, right off the highway. We were barely there for 10 hours, and did not get to use/enjoy any of the amenities. My only concern was that some of the common areas were not as clean as expected, especially the elevator."

Americas Best Value Inn & Suites Independence VA

8/10 Good

"The room and building appeared clean and well maintained. My main issue was the noise you could hear from other nearby rooms. You could hear every time someone else flushed a toilet or ran water. And there were some very loud children screaming at one another very early one morning that woke us up. There are signs at the property that they are newly renovated, perhaps some thought should have been placed on a little bit of soundproofing between rooms."

Quality Inn Mount Airy Mayberry

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was perfect for our two-night stay in "Mayberry". Within 5-minute drive to everything. Room was very clean and staff was very friendly. The outside was also super clean. The pool area looked nice (we did not use it). The only complaint was the coffee maker and coffee. Coffee pot was one that uses some pod type packs, not a Kureg. And the coffee itself wasn't good. We brought our own, just in case, but was unable to make it due to the type of coffee maker. Otherwise, it was a great stay. Would definitely recommend to anyone staying in the area."

Knights Inn Mount Airy

10/10 Excellent

"Knight's Inn is an older motel. It's simple and inexpensive. The room was very clean and comfortable. We weren't expecting anything high-end. We were very pleased. When I turned on the shower, WOW! The faucet and dual shower heads were top notch! Water was hot and had great pressure. Would I stay again? Definitely. Would I recommend? Absolutely!"
