We had been traveling for about 8 hours or so, looking for a place somewhere near I-81 an I-77, however everything was booked. We found this Hampton Inn in what appears to be a very nice town just a few miles south. Although I am a Hilton Diamond Member, there are still times when you're just "not quite sure," about what kind of place you might be staying... The Hampton Inn Galax was clean. The desk manager that night was very helpful, and pleasant! The free breakfast was also very good. Everyone we talked to was just very friendly and nice! I've done what you're doing right now. Read review after review and tried to figure out if it speaks the truth. I'm not the type of person that does this often, but I really thought that if ever there was a place that deserved a good review and LIVED UP TO THAT REVIEW, it was this place.
