Super 8 Ruther Glen/King’s Dominion

They could invest in better vacuums and $ 70/​night is a bit overpriced for this older budget motel. Easy highway access though.

One star rating. Door to room had to be man handled. Carpet was installed but not stretched; also very damp to walk on so wore shoes until bed. Husband used toilet; seat was broken and would not flush. He had to take lid off and flush manually. Tub had a dirt ring. It was obvious that the tub had not been cleaned in a long time. The sink was in the same state. Towel rack and toilet dispenser were coming out of the wall. A/​C unit had MOLD and visible dirt. My husband did let the management know, in fact he visibly showed him and his excuse was that they were in the process of fixing the room. Soooo, who pays $ 77.20 + $ 15.00 for a room like this? We did. It was late, we were tired. We took pictures and will let the corporate office be aware that we will NOT be back.

You can’t go to a super 8 and expect even a Marriott but this place was pretty bad… The floor just felt gross the room had a mold & paint smell to it. The customer service was awful. If you’re needing a place to stay, my advice is to drive a few more exits and look for a better hotel.

We came here because we were very tired and had ti find somewhere to sleep… But there is one word that would describe this motel: Disgusting. By disgusting mean VERY likely bedbugs in these uncomfortable beds. The room service doesn’t even clean the rooms… And the worst of all, COKROACHES IN THE BATHROOM. Ugh. Absolutely disgusting. Would NOT recommend to anyone. Not even the homeless.
Also, the guy (that is very hard to understand because he is Indian) charged me extra because apparently their «system got messed up» UGH! Don’t be surprised if they max out your credit card here. Because the staff here are not very trustworthy.
I have more to rant about though: the breakfast sucks. We had to go to the McDonald’s across the street because the breakfast here is cooked by a madman. And the pool that they have here is very small and does not go over 5 feet. The television is one of those old televisions that they use in the 90s… And all of the staff here are very hard to understand. There are even rumors that say that the guy who cleans doesn’t even wash the towels… He just dries them UGH.!!
Over all I have no good comments to say about this motel. This is a disgusting dump. Do not go here. I am done with this place. This was the most disgusting motel/​hotel I have ever been in. Do not go here at any will. They will devour your credit card and give you diseases.

This was an unexpected destination. I had hoped to stop in North Carolina, so I would be much closer to Florida, but after 3 hours of DC area traffic, I figured I’d better find a place now.
The real trouble is that this is close to Kings Dominion (originally owned by the same people who owned Kings Island and Carowinds) theme parks. He quoted me a price of $ 88 something and then, knocked it down to $ 78. I considered driving all the way to the South Carolina line but people on the road right now are doing odd things, like driving 40 mph on I-​95. (I can imagine three elderly couples leaving Golden Corral or some similar restaurant, being confused about where they are, getting on I-​95. :-D)
In any case, the Double bed room was one of the few remaining, so it’s fine. I’ll probably end up waking in the middle of the night to leave, so I can be in Florida by afternoon.
