I stayed here because I found a cheap price on Priceline. I would not do it again. Upkeep outside doesn’t inspire confidence that you’re in a safe environment, walls are paper thin(I was able to hear the next room through the wall, my bathroom, the TV, and a very loud air conditioner running), there was cigarette ash and a giant dook left swimming in the toilet for me upon my arrival, and the wifi is spotty and slow. I couldn’t sleep because I was too excited to leave my room forever. I set my alarm for 6am, skipped the shower, and hit the road. Did I mention there was feces and cigarette ash in the toilet of my «non-smoking» room? Unreal. Even if you find a cheap rate for this hotel, I highly recommend spending the extra $ 20 and going to another hotel. There are literally handfuls of lodges on the same street right off I-81. I wish Unilocal allowed pictures of human waste so that I could further demonstrate the little corner of human sadness that is the Skyland Inn in Bristol, Virginia.

Place rating: 3 Suisun City, CA
I had went to this place earlier this year when I went to visit my bf in Abingdon, VA. He told me about this place as he’s stayed there before, so I decided to book at room. The folks that work there are really nice and take care of you pretty quick as they did when they see you pull up into their lot. They would have gotten a better rating if not for a couple of things. 1) The place is a bit run down. Luckily the town is pretty nice(in my experience) so even though its a bit run down you don’t have to worry about the room next door screaming about their baby’s daddy or some drug deal taking place in the parking lot. Maybe they are a bit down when it comes to customers, but the place could afford to spruce it up a bit. The rooms were repainted, but it wasn’t a very good job. 2) Courtesy! The couple that works there are indian, but they are in some obvious need of courtesy lessons, or at the very least more English lessons. When it was time for me and my boyfriend to check out she had walked up to us(we were outside) and she said«Hello! It’s get out time» LOL. That had me cracking up because she said that in the very nicest way possible and I know she didn’t mean it the way she said it. The place gets three stars just for the nice lady that works there. I did come back a few days later and she did try to offer me a specific room(I originally requested room 11 the first time I came by but it wasn’t available)… next time I got back to VA I should have a place by then, but it came to where I had to rent a room for a few night, I might have to pass this place up and try another.
