"Friendly staff. Clean rooms. Comfy beds. Quiet. Great Sleep."
Overall Score5.0/ 5
I ended up staying at Hawthorne Inn when the usual hotel I stay at in Winston Salem was full. I was pleasantly surprised by the accommodations. I had a wonderful night's rest. Although the hotel decor and building are old, the elevator is speedy and the rooms very quiet. The staff was most accommodating especially when I had a problem with my room key. I elected to pay the $10 for a hot breakfast in lieu of the complimentary continental fare and it was delicious even to my fussy palate. My only regret is not having time to lounge by their quaint pool.
