I've been coming here for 20 years. It isn't corporate, so if you need a Comfort Inn or a Radisson, don't bother. I usually stay at Hilton or Renaissance, but when I come to Elkins, I always stay here. You can walk to the best restaurant in town (1863 Tavern) and a full-service bar with the best steak you will... More

We arrived in Elkins with no room booked. My husband liked the look of the outside of the Motor Lodge, very quaint. We were able to get a room which was very clean in the main building. Yes the property is dated, but the place was absolutely spotless. There is a restaurant on the premises, seemed to be doing good... More

I stayed here overnight to visit family. Not only was it clean, it was quiet and the staff were just fine. Sure, the place has not been updated since it was constructed, but everything worked just fine, including those pesky LOW OUTLETS on the wall. GASP! It felt like a dorm-room though. You come into a hallway area then your... More

This motel is very old and the room shows its age. There was a tile missing from the bathroom wall and a couple of small stains on the carpet. However, the room was very clean and the employees were friendly. I'd definitely stay again.

Sleep in your car if you must, just don't stay here. My husband and I are spur of the moment travelers, which can lead to some really great adventures. The Elkins Motor Lodge was an adventure, all right, but not the good kind. It was the only budget motel in town with a room-that should have been our first clue.... More

We stayed at the Motor Lodge for 2-3 days during the 4th of July weekend in 2010. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They also served some bagels/muffins in the morning. Rooms were really, really, old, but also, really clean. The only problem I had was that I couldn't plug in my laptop to the wall socket (you have... More

We went to visit friends in Elkins during the Mountain State Forest Festival. We stayed in the 2-story builing at the top of the hill for 4 nights. The staff were friendly & helpful, the room was clean & quiet, everyone enjoyed their dinner at the 1863 Tavern.

The staff did their best, and were pleasant, but I was sent to 4 different rooms before we found one that had been cleaned and was ready. The mold was so bad that the rooms and the entryways reeked of it. I coughed all night, developed a sinus infection, and had to change motels mid-week. The carpet, the matress, the... More

Reservation made for room for disabled (they only have two) upon arrival, room was not available due to a/c issues and they did not call to notify us. It was too late to look for another motel since we had dinner and show plans. We accepted another room; paint was pealing, walls where scuffed from furniture rubbing, remote wouldn't work... More
