    Ah, Hollins oh Hollins :). I am at the undergraduate university as a senior, and have spent the past years building my resume through their connections with internships, and trying to find my way with a liberal arts education. It's been a bumpy ride, but having faculty and stuff always kind and respectful to its students has made it worth my time here. The professors work hard to provide a great education and challenge each student's individuality while teaching students how to work cohesively in groups. Even if you don't come to attend, come along and check out the scenery especially during the fall and spring! I highly recommend it for events and photo shoots!

    This is one of Roanoke's must beautiful architectural designed Mexican restaurants…read more A third generation family-owned and operated restaurant from the first family to bring Mexican cuisine to Roanoke in 1986. It is well known for its authentic Mexican cuisine, including fajitas, tacos, and margaritas. Agave Azul originally opened as El Rodeo in 2001. Then in 2019 the Lopez family rebranded the restaurant, changing its name and design but retaining their style and original recipes. The change in redesign was made to better reflect the way one should experience Mexican Food in contemporary society, and to honor the vibrant, evolving culture of contemporary Mexican cuisine. As I arrived today in my pearl white Lexus and parked it in their very convenient parking lot, I couldn't help but to admire the beautiful structure of the restaurant's architectural design of its building. Once inside, a welcoming gentleman greeted me and took me to one of the booths next to the windows of the dining room and handed me a copy of the menu. Shortly after a friendly young lady came by and introduced herself as my server and took my drink order. I ordered a virgin mango margarita. While she went to request it at the bar, one of their employees brought me their complimentary basket of chips along with the tiny bowl of salsa. What can I say, they were irresistible and amazingly delicious. I found myself looking at the menu and at the same time dipping my chips in the salsa and eating them. When the margarita arrived it looked amazing. So fresh that one could see the lime slices juice dripping onto the table. To dine I ordered the Parrillada Fajitas and asked her to also include chorizo for an extra charge. She acknowledged that could be arranged and went to the kitchen to place my order. She then disappeared. I suspect they had given her a large table in the other dining room because the restaurant was not so full and yet she took so long to bring me my fajitas that when they arrived they were not sizzling hot with smoke coming out of the cast iron skillet. Before I had time to mention this to her, she had quickly disappeared again. I tasted the fajitas and they were so good that I ate them and didn't bother complaining. Besides I was so hungry that I couldn't wait for them to remake them just to see the smoke coming out of the skillet when served. But this was a bit disappointing because it was the first time it had happened at any Mexican restaurant before, and I felt it took away from the excitement of watching your fajitas being served sizzling hot. A side plate came with delicious Mexican rice, refried beans, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, and guacamole. Also I received some hot flower tortillas wrapped inside a piece of aluminum paper. The time went by and I had finished with my meal and my server hadn't showed up. I was looking forward to having a dessert. When she shows up she does so with my bill. I told her I was planning on having a dessert if it was possible, and that if she could please clear my table. I ordered a Xango Cheese Cake that was supposed to come drizzled with caramel and chocolate. But instead it came drizzled with sugar and honey. After having a bite of it I didn't seem to mind because it tasted so good like this as well. Then another long wait to get the bill. Luckily in this restaurant you paid the bill at the cashier's counter. It's a pity that I let my dining experience escalate up to this point. I hope the owner and manager of the restaurant reads my review and takes action so this doesn't happen again. Next time I will definitely not allow this to happen again. In conclusion the food tasted very good but did not arrive sizzling hot; the ambiance was pleasant but lacked the Mexican background music, and the service was definitely lacking, but I'm willing to give this restaurant another try honoring its generational history.

I needed them gone! I was on the Next Door app and found the phone number for CMT Junk Removal, so I decided to contact them for a quote. Cory, the owner, contacted me back within about an hour. We texted back and forth, and I sent him photos of the boxes I needed removed. He gave me a generalized price range, which I felt was appropriate, considering the photos made it hard to tell precisely how much was there. He said he could do it that day, but the next day was better for me, and he was agreeable. He showed up promptly at the designated time with his pickup truck. He's an incredibly lovely and personable young man--strong as an ox! He was considerate, polite, and a hard worker with a very cheerful demeanor. He filled his truck completely and took that load to the dump, then came back for the second load--still with a wonderful attitude. The second load was the last of it. He even took away my old, broken microwave and an old computer chair. Cory is delightful to work with, and I recommend him any time! I will use him again when it's time for me to clear out a large storage locker. I hope his business continues to grow and become successful.

I stayed here during the week- it was very quiet- on a wknd could be radically different noise level (given that I could hear the noise from the parking lot inside my 3rd floor room.) Picked this location since it was so close to I-81. Arrived & instantly felt safe, comfortable here. Simple, clean landscaping. Well-lit parking lot- spaces open close enough to the door. Cleared sidewalks on the way into the lobby despite a few days of snow on a cold icy night. Desk clerk immediately greeted me to let me know she'd be right there. Thanked me for being a rewards member- even if that comes with nothing else- just something about this acknowledgment is nice. (Of course I'll take a perk but hey...) Sadly, she did NOT mention the coffee & tea bar that is accessible in the lobby 24 hrs- found it by watching another guest. Loved having an herbal tea before bed without having to pay primo price for it. I also got a water from the lobby pitcher (lemon-infused) & it tasted great. They had free cookies too. These little kindnesses really do make it a more comfy stay. And people forget to drink enough water in the wintertime! This whole overnight experience was in HUGE contrast (much better) to a bigger brand name hotel the week before in the same area. This was a minimalist, chic room with just enough to offer- and clean. Free simple breakfast. Lots of seating- nice & cozy/warm. Overall in good shape- I might have been in a renovated room. The bed was very comfy- room temp perfect. Not too dry, quiet heater too. Importantly no disruption from the cleaning staff the next morning before I checked out. Was glad I chose this one. 3 stars because the tv was a disaster- kept glitching on me- many upload delays while trying to watch shows & the tv kept turning off on me too?!
