Revisit the '70s and stay in a Motel.
Pros:

Beautiful and nostalgic Motel located just 1 mile from downtown Harisonburg VA. I ride my motorcycle all over the eastern half of our country and always prefer staying at a motel rather than a hotel.
I'm a firm believer in the idea that our elders designed a much more functional society than modern developers. IOW they valued function over the sole purpose of profit. Motels are far more functional than hotels for travelers.

Cons:

I was completely satisfied with my stay.

Good value but Disappointing
Pros:

The location was close to the things we wanted to do. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable. The value was good.

Cons:

Although it was clean and the value was good. There were several things that could have been better. The flooring was peeling in many spots in the room, the floor was soft to step on in several spots. The tempnofvthe water on the shower was fantastic however the water pressure was horrible, the shower head was extremely loose and would not stay in position so had to basically stand against the wall at that end of the shower to be in the water. One of the reasons I picked this hotel was because of the breakfast they I listed that was included and the pool they had listed as parts of their amenities only to find out these were not available, they'll had listed make your own waffles, was not there and they're was no pool at all. These were clearly posted on their website and should be removed altogether bc they simply are not there. This is false advertising and bc of this I would probably not choose this location again in the future.

Pros:

Clean and decently comfortable, although staff was ignoring an active domestic abuse situation next door.

Cons:

Staff was rude and demanded me to leave even before 11am, expecting that I would not have the money for the next day. This should never happen. They even called my friend and told her "if you want to renew, you should do so prior to 11!." They tried to lecture her about paying ahead of time. The lack of professionalism and human decency was shocking.
