Really nice hotel in the New River Valley - I joined their parents club which is offered if you have a kid attending either Radford or VA Tech. The food is delicious and it's actually reasonably close to Blacksburg.

Nice summer break
Nice modern hotel. Room was clean, had a nice desk for working and a comfortable “lounge” chair. The breakfast experience would have be benefited from an additional staff member - with only one she was VERY busy both trying to take orders and prepare them Enjoyed the bar in the evening, nice rooftop deck too
