I have no idea why they call the Blackburn Inn an “inn.” My room was ok and the property is nice and conveniently near Staunton. But the establishment is large and impersonal with few staff in evidence. You might as well stay at a Holiday Inn.

Nice, quaint property. Hardwood floors and nice view. Only concern is that there are some rooms on the 4th floor which isn't accessible via the elevator.

Overall experience was fantastic. Staff was friendly. Service was great. Room was clean & ready. Bed was very comfy. The only complaint I have, which is super minor and obviously due to the age, is that some flooring and other surfaces are super worn. Realistically you're fine to walk around bare foot, there's just some uneven spots and the super unlikely chance you may get a splinter or hit a nail sticking up.

Super disappointed: booked for the wrong date. Called *within 15 minutes* to fix the reservation, but was told they don’t have any rooms that night (OK, it happens!) but that they couldn’t refund me at all. Woof.

Very noisy. While old wooden floors maybe charming they are very loud. Little or no insulation between floors resulted in hear every noise from room above. Shower floor had two dead bugs and overhead bedroom light had cobwebs. Location is a distance from highway and town has limited amenities.

Only one criticism, and it might have been isolated to my room (107). When the overhead light in the sleeping area was off, the switches for the bathroom wouldn’t work. Those lights would only come on if the overhead was also on. Was this a quirk to my room or by design?

Historical

I travel quite a bit and usually stay at corporate run properties. This was a boutique hotel which is far better. Property and hotel are immaculate. Very well decorated and kept.
