Stopped in for a rest after a 12 hour ride. The room was spotless and very accommodating with everything we needed. But the bed was broken down and we felt like the bed the next morning . Please change them after years of using. We did not sleep well at all.

We stayed at this hotel for four days while being at my son‘s wedding. Yes the rooms and the building itself are a little outdated. They do a great job and are clean and the service is excellent. The couple that owns and runs the hotel are very, very sweet And we’re very respectful to our needs. I would advise anyone traveling through to stop and stay the night.

I've been to a lot of hotels and motels in my time. This particular motel offers friendly service and a kind staff. This particular trip is THE very longest that I have ever stayed in a motel - a month and a half, if you can imagine. The coffee maker in the room, along with a mini-fridge, were the closest thing to home that I could ask for and the shower is extra-roomy with a U-rail for the shower-curtain. Since I smoke, the room was stocked with a large ash-tray. Since a young age, I have furnished myself with a king-size bed and it was a pleasantry to have them available. As close to home as I can get is the pleasant vibes that I got from the Red Roof Inn Abingdon. Centrally located and easy to get anywhere in the area. I rate this 5 down the line since the staff is willing to clean your room or any other thing in their power to assist you. Stay at the Red Roof inn in Abingdon and stay with family.
