Spark by Hilton Abingdon I-81 near Fairgrounds

10/10 Excellent

"We were in town to do some outdoor activities and decided to stay at the Spark. At first we had some doubts due to low price and potential location. We were more than pleasantly surprised! Checking in was not only easy, it was enjoyable. The desk agent was so friendly and the manager personally gave us cold bottles of waters and local restaurant recommendations. The property was clean, updated, safe and although close to the interstate not at all seedy. Comfy bed, clean, just to the point. We are hotel snobs and it exceeded our expectations."
