The Elk Inn is conveniently located in Elkin, a nice town with a few dining options. The motel is a two-story standard motel with convenient parking. I was there for a few nights. The bed was comfortable and the heater worked fine. But the motel is very long in the tooth. Feels old and a bit neglected. Electrical outlets are very inconvenient, and one was connected in line with a light switch. The TV system was inscrutable. The bathroom facility was ok, but the operator seemed to think that one roll of toilet paper was ok for 4 nights. No backup. There was a very dead roach on the floor, making me think I was walking on a layer of insecticide. The lower floor is not very private. Overall, I found this place to feel really old and not up to the standard for a weary traveler, expecting comfort and modernity. I would not return unless nothing in the area was available. The desk staff was friendly and helpful.

Older furnishings. The room was clean and comfortable, everything worked. The floor could have been swept or dust mopped more. Thin walls. We could hear conversations through the walls and the room above us. But we were satisfied with our stay. We would return in the future.
