This motel is a memory for those of us who remember travel on local highways as a child. Located on a quite country road at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains this newly renovated motel was as billed clean and well run. I stayed at the Hillside with my family of five adults three children over 21 and we were confortable and enjoyed the newly renovated swimming pool. The rooms are large the furnishings were new and confortable. The room had a large table with chairs with a refrigierator and microwave. This arrangement is nice for eat in breakfasts or dinners as a cost savings. Just down the road toward the Mountain Parkway is a recommended resturant called the Brookside, excellent breakfasts if you dont make the Hillside Motel be sure to stop at the Brookside for an old fashioned home cooked meal in a charming environment with waitresses with southern hospitality.
The only downside to the hilltop was a smaller then average bathroom with a shower that was a little short for my 6'5" sons to use.
All in all a nice surprise on a picturesques country road in the foothills of the Virginia mountains. Certainly worth a travellers nights stay or for a romantic get away.
