Little beat up, but a really good stay. Clean, comfortable, and very convenient to everything around. Shower was great pressure, great shower curtain, and wraps up with an excellently fluff towel. Bed was comfortable and big. Didn't try breakfast, smaller area then the bathroom, but there is a McDs basically in parking lot. read more

I've got to say, the 'by Wyndham' may have gotten my hopes up. Luckily, I was in a good mood since it was the beginning of our vacation weekend, but Super 8 wasn't all that 'super.' The parking spots were really small. Getting two kids and the luggage out could have been a little dicey. I hope everyone else was as careful as we were. Luckily, hubs checked in for us, but he said the lobby smelled less than pleasant. I was careful not to breathe too deeply as we walked through. Once we got to our room, the first thing that needed to be done was the killing of a spider off my pillow :( Just a small one, but it did leave me a little skittish through the night. We headed down in the morning for the continental breakfast, but it left much to be desired. The selections reminded me of a quick convenience store stop. We headed next door to McDonald's to fill our bellies for the rest of the drive. Overall, we had a safe and comfortable night of rest, which is really all we were asking for, right? read more

Stayed here a few years ago and this place was great. I remember it was snowing and the wife and I needed a place to sleep for the night. The GM said she was from Virginia. She was so nice and helpful. Rooms were clean and smelled good. Breakfast was great. We came back and there's a different GM and the place has really gone down hill. Room we stayed in smelled of mildew and smoke. Room was dusty but other than that seemed to be clean. Breakfast not what it use to be and staff not friendly at all and seem like they couldn't care less if the hotel has guest or not. read more

This place was a great bargain. All we needed/wanted was a bed and a shower and that is what we got. and at a good price. Clean, friendly enough... good Mexican restaurant across the street. (try the chili verde :) and a Dollar Tree! which can come in handy when you are on the road... read more

This was our third Super 8 on our trip to NC from MI. Our first two experiences were pretty good, but as soon as we stepped into the room in Ripley, the smell of mold/mildew overpowered us. Thankfully the front desk placed us in another room at our request, but I feel bad for the people who stay there after us. I found black mold in the carpet all along the bottom of the AC unit. Our second room was better, but there was some black mold in the bathroom ceiling as well. If we had stayed for longer than one night, we either would have needed a new room or a new hotel all together. read more

Super 8 is generally a place we choose to stay at when travelling. I am glad that we stopped at this hotel in Ripley, West Virginia. It is conveniently located off the interstate. The local roads are kept in good condition and the traffic controls were easy to navigate. It was to find the parking lot and once there we had plenty of room to navigate. The front desk clerk was attentive and polite. Check-in was done carefully and courteously. The room was spacious with two large beds and a newly installed television. The views are fantastic! West Virginia at its best. A river runs just behind the hotel and there was an old iron railroad bridge nearby. In the morning the mountains were lit up and the mists were showered in gold streaks. Their breakfast offering wasn't shoddy and we had something nice to get us going on our way. Checkout was fairly easy and we got on our way in the morning. read more

This was a diamond in the rough. My wife and I travel back to Michigan from NC regularly and have had a hard time finding a decent hotel at a halfway point. This is a good find to keep us from taking the long way through Knoxville, TN. The room was about $79 and included a continental breakfast in the morning. The Super 8 is right next to the Holiday Inn, which is twice the price. The room and hotel were clean and located near a couple restaurants, a Kroger and a gas station. Overall the area was a nice place for a mid drive break and I will stay again. read more

We travel from NC to OH a few times a year and have stayed a few places along the way. This has been the best and will continue to be our stop anytime we head north along 77. The room was clean and the staff was very friendly. There was also a fridge in the room (something that will make or break a hotel or motel for me). The rooms also have windows that open and shut. This feature was especially nice the night it dropped down to 60 degrees overnight. Fresh air in a small space is always a nice option. The breakfast included Dannon Yogert, toast, bananas, apples, bagels, and packaged cinnamon roles. Nothing special, but it was enough to fill us up. Everything was portable, so you could take it to go. I would definitely recommend staying here. For a Super 8, it is great! read more

So, I stayed here twice. I was going from MI to NC and this particular place was halfway, more or less. I would have originally gave it a 5 star rating. However, on the second stay, their wifi was useless. This is a Super 8. So, do not mistake a 4 star rating as a 4 star establishment. It's a Super 8. But, it's clean, and it's cheaper. And that's ultimately what counts to me. I usually skip the motel/hotel breakfasts, and this one is no different. But, like I said, it hit the mark where it counts. It's clean, it's comfortable, and I'd stay there again. read more

The hotel lot was bright and safe. Our room was very clean, comfortable. Very safe feeling. The bathroom and shower were nice and roomy. The nighttime supervisor was fantastic in going Above and Beyond to help us fix our reservation. Therefore we were able to spend the night without any worries!! We appreciate everything thank you! read more

I would have preferred a rating a little less than four stars mainly because the motel was quite old. But it was extremely clean and very close to the 4th of July action which was the reason we came to Ripley in the first place. The wifi was slow but reliable and perfectly adequate for browsing and simple emails. If you are planning on doing heavy-duty data transferring from their wifi system you will be disappointed. read more

Clean, quiet, new-looking room, w/ friendly staff and cheap rates. Not a place I'd choose as a vacation destination, but about all one could ask for as a place to crash in the middle of a long road trip. read more

Stopped here for a quick overnight to break up the long drive from Michigan to North Carolina. Took a chance based on previous review & very glad we did. They only had a 2 dbl bed room but it was 9pm, we were tired of driving & for $79 on a Saturday night we took it. We've only ever slept in king or queen together but being so tired we didn't notice being cramped at all! But seriously? Why do they even have beds this small in ANY hotel ANYWHERE? I digress, back to the review....the room was super clean with flat screen, fridge/microwave/coffee maker/hair dry/wifi. It was super quiet on the second level & beds were comfortable. Even had free quick service type breakfast. No complaints from us. Would stop here again for sure. read more

Perfect place to pull off on our drive down to South Carolina and was a little cheaper than Charleston - where we had originally planned this too. Booked while on the road, room was clean and smelled amazing. The bed was comfortable with a nice tv in the room. Lots of things close by to grab gas, food, etc. and a good view of the mountains. Overall the perfect place to stop! read more

customer service sucks. Would not work with a mistake in reservation 5 minutes after reservation was made. Asked to speak with a manager request was denied. read more

Our Non-smoking room reeked of smoke! The only other open non-smoking room was worse! Manager said that they had converted their smoking rooms to non-smoking in January, and she had been "ozoning" them to get the smell out. After debating with her for almost 30 minutes, she finally agreed to pay the difference for us to go to another hotel. Note to manager - after 30+ years of smoke, you are going to need to replace carpets and furniture, and repaint to even get close to having non-smoking rooms. read more
