Other than Rocky Mount NC

[Brook1099]

any other exits and hotel a litttle further south anyone could recommend. We are leaving in two weeks, driving from NJ which we always do but usually leave at 2 am and drive to GA or straight thru. Trying a new plan, leaving at 5:30 and driving into NC, just hoping we can make a little further south than Rocky Mount, if we dont no biggie. But need some recommendations for other exits would be good to know.

Fayetteville? Dunn?

There is also Selma

Dunn or Fayetteville might be a stretch...I just plugged it into Streets and Trips and from Lakehurst, you'd be arriving around 1:45 a.m. - 2 a.m. in those areas...Rocky Mount would be around 12:45 a.m.

All this assumes no major traffic tie-ups, and stopping for 15 min. every 3 hours. You could reach Emporia, VA by about 11:30 p.m. Also the Hampton Inn there at I-95 starts breakfast at 5:30 a.m....FWIW.

We are staying at the Hampton Inn Emporia on our drive back in December. How is it?

I liked it esp. because of the 5:30 a.m. breakfast start. (We were heading south!) And they were ready to go with everything out and ready.

I believe they are also pet-friendly, so if you have allergies, I'd make sure to note it on your reservation.

Lumberton, N.C. has several hotels.

I've stayed in Wilson the past couple of years - Exit 121 has a ton of different hotels to choose from.

The I95 app for iPhones might be a big help to you. Lists all gas, dining, hotels at each exit all along the i95 corridor.
