Close to Kings Dominion

5 min from Kings Dominion. So convenient to park, gas and food. The room was good, but o did find someone’s dock on the floor and some hairs in the bathroom. I come with cleaning supplies anyway no matter where I stay.

Beds not comfortable, terrible smell through hotel from lobby, elevators, stairs and room; maybe the carpet? Idk but not pleasant. Bathroom fixtures were not secured, faucet was all over the place and the toilet paper roll could barely hold itself up, it wasnt holding TP. There was a biker group staying there at the same time we were. Large group of large men stayed swarmed outside the front door congregating. Bikes were revved at all hours of the night right outside the front door where they also parked. The staff did nothing. But I cant blame them, there was no security and small petite ladies manning the desk alone each night. How are they going to confront them? I doubt anyone had sleep while they were there. Will not stay there again.

The hotel was okay. Bed was fine. Sheets felt weird. Floors couls use a better cleaning. The shower knob wasnt fastened in all the way. The tape used to hold the ac together was hanging off. Holes in the bathroom door. Train right behind building. And the wifi was spotty. Staff was awesome. They worked with me after i made a mistake and booked the wrong night!!! So appricated them for that, after all it was my mistake!. Breakfast was good. Great options. Eggs were delicious! Cook does a wonderful job. Would i stay here Gain? Um maybe... i would look Roubd for options for sure.

My recent stay at the Best Western Doswell Hotel was a mixed bag, and unfortunately, the negatives far outweighed the convenience of its location near Kings Dominion. While the proximity to the theme park is a major draw, the hotel itself left much to be desired. From the start, there were issues with my reservation. I had called ahead to add my children to the booking, and the person I spoke with assured me it wouldn't be a problem and there would be no extra charge. However, upon check-in, I was surprised to be hit with an additional $20 fee for them. This lack of communication and the unexpected charge was a frustrating start to our trip. The problems continued inside the room. The air conditioning unit was incredibly loud, making it difficult to sleep or even have a conversation. The constant noise was compounded by what sounded like people running either in the halls or in the room above us, adding to the disruptive environment. The Internet service was consistently poor, making it nearly impossible to do anything online. The television was also a constant source of frustration, as the signal kept cutting out and the picture would "cliche," making it unwatchable. To top it off, the bed was far from comfortable, leading to a restless night's sleep. Throughout our stay, getting fresh towels was a constant hassle. It felt like we were always fighting to get the basic amenities we needed. Ulti

Stopped there for one night during a road trip. Comfortable beds. Location- it’s right across the street from six flags, we had to drive to get dinner, but easy to do as it’s right off the Highway. I think there is a Burger King and a 7/11 next to the hotel. Easy parking.

Over all ok

Stayed 2 nights.The service from reception was very bland, no smiles or personality. As far as the stay, it was good. The rooms were nice & were clean. But when we asked for towels & wash cloths the next day, we were told they didn't have any clean, again not very friendly. This happened twice. Also recommendations for bathroom....shower needs a "slip" bar & the toilet seats replaced, they were very thin. Wasn't comfortable to sit on.

The hotel itself is clean and well maintained. Staff was very nice. The only reason I can’t give this 5 stars is because the second floor hallway smelled so strongly of cat urine. I understand it is a hard smell to get rid of, but it was awful. They accept pets so I guess someone didn’t know how to care for their cat during their stay. The 7-11 at the top of the road has very sketchy folks around. Felt safe on the property itself.

Weekday stay

Outside pool was warm which was great after working and driving all day. We stayed early in the week and had no issues with check in, the stay or noise like many hotels. If you don't ask for service you don't get it. But you can ask for anything. Kings dominion is the next road over so it's good and close, still it's crossing a highway so go ahead and drive over. Beds comfy, even more so after closing down KD!

Pet urine odor - 2nd floor

Room was ok. Second floor hallway smelled like pet urine. Instead of spraying Lysol into the air vent (observed), washing and vacuuming the carpet would be better. It’s great to be non-smoking but it should be pet-free too. Breakfast was good. Should be allowed to take a plate to room (not allowed) or extend close time past 9:30am. Good proximity to Kings Dominion.
