Very disappointing,
Pros:

Location to JMU. Beds seemed clean and comfortable

Cons:

Overall conditions of the facility was dilapidated. Outside steps to 2nd floor concrete was crumbling and is a safety issue. Our room was filthy dirty. I had to go out and buy cleaning supplies to clean the bathroom tub, toilet, mirror and countertops. Even the bathroom walls needed to be clean. The AC vents were thick with dust and dirt. The conditions were NOT good!

Constant noise. Left in the middle of the night.
Pros:

Rooms seemed decently clean. New mattresses and sheets with metal frames to avoid bed bugs.

Cons:

Promotional photos and price were misleading. Thought I was staying in something closer to a hotel and had already paid. Got there and it was a cheap looking motel.

Doors were propped open in the building I stayed in constantly, even though they seemed to have a locking mechanism that worked with key cards. Felt unsafe, especially with people hanging around the parking lot.

Hallway floors were stone instead of carpet so you could loudly hear every step of someone moving and the echoing from both floors.

college students were running up and down the halls knocking on random doors and being loud. Night staff either didn't know or didn't care.

Walls and ceilings were thin, so you could also hear things from other rooms.

Noise was so bad we left in the middle of the night for a hotel so we could actually get some sleep. I'd expect this kind of stuff to happen at a super cheap motel, but for the price I paid, it was absolutely not worth it.

Will not be staying here again and will recommend against it for anyone I know looking to stay in town.

Olor repugnante. Típico motel de carretera sórdido americano.
Pros:

Lo reservé por precio y por encontrarse cerca de Shenandoah. Cuando fuimos en octubre, había muy poca oferta de hoteles.

Cons:

El alojamiento estaba sucio. Había pelos en la cama, menos mal que había 2 camas en la habitación, y en general no estaba limpio. Pero lo peor fue el olor: es verdad que tuve parte de la culpa, porque reservé una habitación de fumadores por error y el olor era absolutamente insoportable, lo impregnaba todo. Nos habríamos ido pero llegamos muy tarde, además no había otros alojamientos a menos de una hora disponibles. El olor de la habitación no era a tabaco, era como a cenicero, tuvimos que entrar solo con lo esencial y lavar todo lo que usamos dentro de la habitación al día siguiente. Repugnante. Por la noche nos despertábamos con ese olor repulsivo. Si hubiera reservado 2 noches, me habría ido. La zona donde está ubicado el hotel tampoco daba mucha confianza. Era tipo motel de carretera americano, digno de película.
