Pros:

I liked the location. The front desk lady a large black woman was very rude. She was not at all friendly or helpful. I wish I'd asked her name to call corporate. A maintenance man helped us when keys didn't work .she ignored us. Breakfast bar was clean and good.thank u

Felt a little unsafe
Pros:

Loved the rooms, the staff was very friendly. The location was great, downtown exactly where i wanted to be with plenty of parking.

Cons:

The out side stair well was sappose to remain locked, and use your key card to get in. During the day it was locked, I found at night was proped open- most likely because it made a loud noise when it slammed shut.
When I got up in the morning I noticed 2 men weaving in and out of the cars, when I came downstairs the quickly walked over to the bus stop.

Little gem of a find in Staunton! Clean, comfortable and reasonably priced.
Pros:

The property was just a short walk out of town. The room was large, clean, and comfortable. Several food choices across the courtyard. Continental breakfast was basic.
