Hotel Review

My wife and I recently stayed three nights at a Quality Inn in Lewisburg, West Virginia, while exploring Greenbrier County. Since budget hotels get a mixed reputation, we brought along a black light for the very first time to do an actual room inspection.

A few quick takeaways from our stay for anyone traveling through the area:

Cleanliness: Surprisingly good for a budget property. The bed and bathroom were completely clean under the UV light. We only spotted two small stains on the carpet and a tiny spot on a chair armrest.

Accessibility: Room 113 had a roll-in shower with a low lip that holds water in without blocking a wheelchair—definitely a plus if you need accessible lodging.

Oddities: There is actually no Quality Inn sign on the main building itself (just a marquee sign at the shopping center entrance down the block).

Downsides: We ran into a minor ant issue if food was left out, a noisy AC unit, and a small faucet leak, though none of it ruined the stay.

Overall, it’s a solid option for budget travelers in WV if you're looking for clean beds and decent free breakfast, provided you keep food sealed!

We filmed a full walkthrough of the room, black light test, and breakfast setup if anyone wants a closer look before booking in the area:

Has anyone else started bringing UV lights on travel reviews? What are your experiences with budget chain cleanliness lately?
