We like to take road trips and stay at older hotels that have character, and we thought that this hotel in Lynchburg might be a good example. There is tremendous potential at this hotel, but sadly, it is not yet met. The lobby was just as nice as the picture shows, but the rest of the hotel has seen better days. I think that is why we gave low scores - the hotel was clearly once a very nice location, but seems like is has not seen significant maintenance in decades. (The same might be said of all of downtown Lynchburg, but I digress)
The good news is that the linens were clean. The bathtub drain tended to back up while you used the shower. The main elevators were out of service and we had to go through some dilapidated staff areas to use the service elevator. There is no dining at the hotel, and we found only a few options of any sort within walking distance. We had to drive out of Lynchburg for a nice dinner. The hotel breakfast was also limited, so we passed and drove to a Cracker Barrel as we left Lynchburg.
