Convenient I-81 stop with mountain views
Pros:

Stayed here for one night while traveling on I-81 and had a very pleasant experience. The staff were friendly , and the room had all the expected stuff for this price point, including a Keurig coffee maker and comfortable furniture.

The location is excellent—very easy on/off access to I-81, and my room had a nice view of the surrounding mountains. The hotel was also very reasonably priced .

Another plus is the number of dining choices in the area, along with a mainstream grocery store within a mile or two.

Bottom line:
A solid and convenient overnight stop for travelers on I-81. I would happily stay here again.
