Pros:

We had a great weekend. The motel was very clean and the staff was extremely friendly. They made us feel right at home with our puppy. Nice picnic area out back. The diner has very affordable food and large portions. Highly reccommend!

Stay was as expected.
Pros:

The stay was good, it was clean though older and the drawers had other peoples old things in them. The beds were super hard which did make the night rough, but a neighbor said his bed was great and soft, so its just one of those things about travel, be prepared, bring your own padding etc. You get what you pay for and this was fine for a night, we felt safe, staff was nice. There's a restaurant in the parking lot that isn't connected to the motel, but the food was terrible and expensive, Do yourself a favor and run to get fast food...seriously.

Has been beter
Pros:

We have stayed here a couple of times and enjoyed it however this time the room was not that clean. There were rings in the toilet and you could see dirt/dust on the floor of the bathroom. When we went out our 2nd day there, we put the sign out to please clean the room but it was never cleaned.

Definitely give it a shot
Pros:

I quite enjoyed my stay at the Mountaineer Inn. I went for Lurch Fest (in August), a fest for Philippi native Ted Cassidy, tv’s original Lurch. I had read reviews before I booked so know that there have been some upgrades. They DO have key cards and shampoo in the bathrooms. I saw some new flooring so it looks like renovations have started. The Philippi Inn is the nearby restaurant and it’s right next door although it’s not far into town. I had to go this trip without a car, which I knew would be difficult. Don’t plan on taking an Uber anywhere. They are few and far between unless you schedule them in advance, which seems to be the key. But Debbie, the manager of the hotel and her husband gave me a ride into town one day when I couldn’t get a car! I did not expect that. All in all, the main thing is that the Mountaineer Inn is a good value.
