Close to downtown Rock Hill and I love bowling alley
I'm in the middle of moving so I need A place to stay for a few weeks so I decided to stay at the hillside Inn it's safe the owners are very strict about things but they are very courteous and kind to me it's on a budget I paid under $400 a week and it's clean safe Wi-Fi is great the T v's are great all the appliances are great they put a new bed in while I was here On a Sunday and they are constantly upgrading things I really like the old bed with the new beds even better lol I would suggest that if you need to stay somewhere and you don't want to worry about the city things that happen at other hotels like down the street they have a problem with people walking the streets and other substance abuse problems but not here . It's just a very smart place to be it's beside the bowling alley which there's a restaurant lounge bowling arcade there are so many amenities right next door in the same parking lot and there's always sheriff's department presents here for the bowling alley it's just a great decision to stay so if you are in Rock Hill you need to choose the hillside Inn
Nice manager and decent rooms for the price. Going back
As far as cheap motels go in Rock Hill, it's one of the better options. Clean and friendly staff. Good nightly rates
We stayed for just one night, picked a river view room. It was clean but a little noisy from other patrons in the evening. The breakfast was filling and the view from there was great .Staff was gracious. Clifty Falls was close so we drove through the park, stopped at a few of the trails and got some pretty pictures of the falls. No admission charge this time of year. Madison is a fun town.
They were very good to us. We will cont. To stay there. They will talk ur ears off though lol
Hillside inn is very friendly & affordable. The owner is very friendly
