Pleasing Stay
From check-in to check-out, it was a pleasing stay. The front desk staff was friendly, and the room that I got on the second floor was big with a balcony to boot! It was quite comforting. Sleeping was decent.

You get what you pay for.
We just needed a quick place to sleep on our trip. Place was pretty quiet but not the cleanest. Was in a convenient location. Wish they had at least had a coffee maker in the room.

Very dissatisfied. We had enough warm water for 1 shower.... There were 2 of us. Couldn't get in touch with anyone for a solution. While the room was basically clean, it looked like it was put together from a garage sale. We'll never stay here again

The Edelweiss restaurant is nearby, The property.has done some upgrading but still has a lot to do. The hot water was barely lukewarm. No coffee pot. OK for a nights stay.

Good value
Hotel was a good value for the money. Clean room, easy parking, fast check in, fridge, microwave, lots of mirrors, big rear field, cable tv. Several fast food places along road along with truck stop with gas, food. 8-9 miles south of downtown Staunton. Stayed here because of the excellent, fun Edelweiss German Restaurant practically next door. Very walkable 0.3 if you want to partake in their many beers. Will definitely stay again on my next visit to the restaurant.

Very cold room, don't stay here.
The room was 50 degrees upon arrival. After several hours of having the heat on high, the bathroom was still freezing. We were not willing to even shower in the cold, plus they only left us 1 towel, 1 hand towel & 1 washcloth, there were 2 of us staying in the room! Because of this I did not leave our usual tip...their loss, but we won't be back. Such a shame, because the location is good & there is a German restaurant called Edelweiss about 3 minutes away which even had live music on a Sunday evening.

The room was very cheap, so I didn’t expect much. But the roaches were incessant. There were even roaches in the microwave, which I discovered after opening it when my water finished heating. But they weren’t dead, they weren’t even slowing down. So no roaches were harmed at that juncture. I can do less clean… and I can do broken stuff.. but I can’t do lots of bugs. I didn’t stay the second night I had paid for.

Don't bother
It sucked!! I booked a double bed room, and when we got there it was a single. They said they were out of doubles. When I explained that my friend I was traveling with was a married man and we were NOT sleeping in the same bed, they put us in a room next door with a fold out couch. The bed was very comfortable, but the fold out couch mattress was so thin the springs made sleeping comfortably impossible. It smelled of bug spray, and there were dead bugs. The hotel is shabby, and appears to be a rent by the week type of facility. I was very unhappy.

lighting by the bed does not work. Had to move tall lamp over toward the bed to have lighting to see. Most disappointing was the internet. I spent more time trying to connect to the internet than getting work done. The mattress was a little firm for my liking.

Fairly clean, good upkeep for older motel. Convenient, quiet. Lobby is 4 feet by 4 feet, no breakfast, no coffee. Pilot and McDs across the road. Okay motel, but there are others in Staunton that are better for the same price.

Probably better staying elsewhere
Check-in took a while. The owner printed off a sheet, stared at it for a minute, asked if I had paid in advance, then stared at the sheet for another minute or two, then looked at his computer, stared at the sheet again and so forth. He finally gave me my key. The room was old and a bit run down. The room was cold so I tried to turn on the heat. There was so much dust and grime covering the controls, that I couldn't read the settings. When I got the heat going, it put out a burning smell and it set the smoke detector off. When I tried to use the floor lamp in the corner, I found that it didn't have a bulb. When I went to bed, I pulled the covers back and a bug was running across the sheet. There is no lobby at this hotel and no in-room coffee maker, so when I got up the next morning, I had to walk across the street to a gas station to buy a cup. On the positive side, the bed was fairly comfortable and there is a very good German restaurant around the corner.

It was musty, out dated, the bathroom had mold and mildew around the tub. The water was not hot for a shower. There flies in the room...a ton. I can say the beds were comfortable and it was relatively quiet, considering it's across the road from a busy Pilot gas station/truck stop

This motel is far cleaner and fresher than any others I've stayed at in its price range. It's 12 miles from downtown Staunton, but both Interstate and surface highway provide quick, convenient access to the city. And within a block is an excellent German restaurant.

My review
It was worth the money I paid. Loved the patio and balcony idea but there were no screens. Towels needed cloroxing. Bed was clean. Definitely an older property not updated but was adequate for one night at that price. Had the convenience of parking outside the door for packing/unpacking. I would stay there again on second floor where I would be able to open door to balcony and enjoy the air. What would be so difficult about adding screens. To the patio/balcony?
