First, our fault for not reading all the reviews. Only saving grace is the liquor store steps away so you can drink yourself to sleep. However, this place is an absolute dump. I don't think the rooms, besides changing our bedding, are ever done. The floors are sticky, walls are moldy in the bathrooms, and the outlets are a fire hazard. I don't know who was using the lamp shades and curtains as napkins, but it is gross. Have some self respect and at least clean. This is a convenient location, and it could be cute if a little effort was taken. I do not recommend this place to anyone. Sleep in your car before here.

Not like the pictures

The pics were misleading. It looked like it would be a lot more updated. The room wasn't very clean. There were mouse droppings on the floor. Only a very thin blanket was provided. The room was freezing even with the heat cranked up to high. Honestly overpriced. My partner and I would have gone elsewhere, but no place else was available

This used to be a cozy Adventure Base, with a diner and a liquor store nearby. Checking in, had to call a cell phone, a guy off-property came. I tried to cancel my pre-paid Rez but he claimed Expedia demanded he charge me. Id been on the Appalachian Trail for 4 days so I thought I could handle it.. Got to room, I've seen worse, but started shower and couldn't get hot water, neither could see aff. I'm the only guest, and that includes the staff, I'm sure they weren't thinking of firing the expensive boilers for me. It was clear they had no hot water capabilities. Staff kept offering to switch rooms but even in other rooms, they'd have to actually get hot water going to the property. This motel exists as an Expedia scam. If you make Rez, it gets charged and they claim they are powerless to cancel. Ended up taking a taxi to another hotel.

Not going back

The shape of the room looks so weird. The bathroom toilet is very small. It looks like it made for young kids. It’s not look very comfortable. I switch to another room and found out it was not clean. No housekeeping clean that room except the bed was made. I was so unsure if they changed it or not.

This place is a dump! Run!

Took a chance on this place based off some of the recent good reviews and its proximity to Harper’s Ferry. The owners friends and family must have wrote the good reviews because this place is a dump. First off, I had to wait for well over 15 minutes for someone to come check me in, and he only came after I called the hotel. The door to our room barely closed, and didn’t have the safety lock so I wedged the chair against the door as a precaution. There was shampoo bottles left in the shower from the previous guest along with trash in the can and grime and hair in the sink. I made my son sleep on a pillow and blanket from the car because I was seriously questioning the cleanliness. If we had not already paid and absolutely exhausted, we would have left.
