Hotel is under new ownership. Owners seem nice but the hotel needs a lot of updating. It was clean, but a fresh coat of paint, replacing doors, and possibly a new mattress would make the stay better, not just a mattress pad. There is no complimentary breakfast due to “covid restrictions”. Heat/AC system was struggling.

Close to every thing we wanted to do in the area.

This motel offered a comfortable and stress-free stay. The room was clean, quiet, and welcoming. The bathroom was well maintained and spotless. Hot water was always available when needed. The heater kept the room warm and cozy. Everything worked smoothly without any issues. I’d recommend it to friends looking for a comfortable stay.

Staff had to use Google translate to understand I wanted an iron(that I had called about ahead & was assured would be in the room). The water was hot but that's about the best thing about the room. There were no hangers, walls with patches of white paint over repairs, the top sheet was tucked in with the bottom sheet, the nightstand had cobwebs & an empty soda can behind it, no cups for the coffee pot, the WiFi didn't work, and the walls were so thin that I could hear the couple in the next door talking in a normal voice, and could almost make out what they were saying. The TV did work. The room had a refrigerator that froze my salad, and a microwave that needed cleaning, but did work. I don't think this facility is up to a level that it should be listed on Expedia.

The location was fantastic for visiting Harper's Ferry, Sweet Run State Park. Gas and convenience store across street. Proprietors friendly upfront and honest, showed room and told wifi wasn't working before check in.
Frig, microwave in room, many channels on tv. Bathroom clean, bed fine. Minutes from Potomac and Shenandoah rivers plus parks.
Would not recommend to families too small, nothing to do, no food options nearby. Room met my needs, but edges were dirty, damage to wall, bathroom door had a cardboard patch, cracks, walls and ceiling had stains. Outlet cover missing. Its a shame since some fairly simple repairs would do so much for the place. Huge pothole as enter parking lot, but can be avoided. Liquor store next door.
If you're looking for a place to stay while hiking, enjoying the area its very convenient but there's a reason why the price is so cheap. Did not have bugs as others reported.

I would strongly advise against staying at this hotel. Upon arrival, we found the room to be dirty, unsanitary, and reeking of urine. It was in no condition to stay in — we immediately left and had to find alternative accommodations at our own expense.

When we contacted management to request a refund, they refused to take responsibility for the condition of the room and denied the request, despite the fact that we couldn’t even stay there due to how unclean it was.

This was an incredibly disappointing experience, and the lack of accountability from the hotel made it even worse. Save yourself the stress and stay somewhere else.

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.

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.

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.

don’t let the pictures fool you

we booked 1 night before camping for a few days. We stayed exactly 7 seconds in the room that was covered in mold and maybe the biggest spider this earth has to offer. We did not argue with the front desk. We calmlyi dropped the key and drove 90 minutes to the next available lodging in our price range. I am unsure how a room like that can be offered at all to the public. I enjoy roughing it from time to time but I don’t try and acquire diseases while on vacation.

There was a hole in the wall above the AC unit. The bathroom door had been kicked in previously and barely patched on either side. There was a patch done on the wall outside the bathroom, not painted. There was wadded up wet toilet paper in the corner of the ceiling and the wall above the shower, not sure why? There was dried vomit on the wall next to the bathroom sink and dried blood droplets by the bathroom door inside the bathroom. It was a disaster. I've never seen anything like this before in my life.

Hillside woes

Looks like they worked on updating fixtures such as sink, refrigerator, & microwave.

But the lack of cleanliness of the walls, floors, ceiling, and chairs was unnerving. The upholstery of one of the chairs was falling apart under the chair. The drapes were old and dirty, with small pinpoint holes that showed when light passed through them.
The toilet kept dripping off & on into the bowl, which was annoying. The room had an old combo air conditioner & heater; it was a chilly night and the chill stayed in the room. The bathroom water was warm, but the bathroom itself was very chilly. Bathroom towels looked clean enough, but were pretty worn down. The fire alarm monitor was hanging down 6-8 inches from the ceiling from its wires. The drawers in the bureau & nightstands could also use a cleaning. All in all, not a very fresh smelling room.

Could be fixed up OK with decent, clean furniture and scrubbing & painting of the walls and ceiling.

Adequate for restful sleep

The sheets were visibly stained, but felt clean. No other issues with cleanliness, but the toilet would run sporadically, necessitating manually shutting off the water to it.

I checked in well after dark, and was dismayed to find that the lobby was closed and locked. When I found the window, I had to call for assistance and wait in the cold and windy night.

Parking is adequate, but the markings are not clearly visible in the dark. Given the facility's obvious age, I was pleasantly surprised at the modern proximity key for the door. There was plenty of space for me, but the room would have been crowded with another adult and even one small child. The bed area warmed adequately in a reasonable amount of time, but even when I set the temperature higher in the morning, the bathroom remained uncomfortably cold.

The minifridge kept my food cold, but the excessive frost on the open freezer compartment took up a lot of space.

2 Star accommodation but price is fair for the area. It's real close to the C&O Canal and Harpers Ferry, and plenty of space for cars, trucks, and bikes for each unit. Beds and drawers are spacious and A/C&Heating unit always worked fantastically.
Mini fridge and microwave is OK and always worked. They're college dorm size but you won't be making complex meals while staying here...

For around the area, there's not much but there is a gas station/convenience store right across the street with some hot food and useful household items.
And it sits right next to a great Bar&Grill. Though make sure to stock up on the goodies cause there's nothing else around or open after 9pm, unless you go east towards Brunswick.
Oh, and a liquor store right next door to the property which has some great stock!

Downsides are that your unit may have broken furniture and/or dead bugs to clean up on arrival. You also might need to escort some crickets out of the room, unless you really enjoy their nightly songs.
Provided hand/bath towels are clean but clearly old and a bit cheap. I would bring my own if possible or buy some decently better cheap ones at a store on the way.

But again, 2 star motel in a rural area of MD. It's not bad at all, and I'll probably stay here again! Friendly staff as well.

The heater/air conditioning unit didn’t work. We (not the staff) finally figured out what was wrong and managed to reset it.

The faucet in the sink did not work; it spewed water at the joint, very little came out of the faucet.

The hot water pipes in the shower squealed horribly.

The room had a sweet cloying smell. We left the fan running, came back after 4 hours, but the smell was still there.

There was no fitted sheet on the bed, only a top sheet. We had to ask for it at the front desk, then make the bed ourselves. The blanket was carelessly thrown on a shelf, not even folded.

The coffee maker was dirty/unusable. But there was only decaf coffee anyway. And there were coffee stains on the table where the coffee pot was.

The floor was not swept. Walking with bare feet in the room was not an option. Very tight quarters. Less than a foot between wall/window and edge of the bed with AC unit cord lying on the floor.

We asked for a discount because of all these inconveniences. We were told, “since the reservation is made with Hotels.com, no discount can be given”.

We chose the place for the reasonable price, but also it was part of Wyndham hotels so we thought there would be an acceptable standard of quality. We were so wrong!

Don’t go.

The fridge didn’t work, nor did the hot water. Stay away.

Heat DIDN'T work well. Lady at front desk swore they checked the unit in all the rooms. Yes it turns on, but doesn't stay on. Keeps kicking off after a minute and doesn't heat the room. Was charged by expedia and the hotel, fortunately was refunded by hotel without too much fuss. Dead bugs all over. Bathroom was barely clean. No cleaning had been done behind fridge and microwave and TV. Only reason we looked was we had to plug in the fridge. Was booked for 2 nights, only stayed 1. Could see daylight around door. Had an old Knights Inn sign up. Description calls it a hotel, which implies more than 1 floor. Definitely NOT! Old, outdated MOTEL. Spend a little more and stay elsewhere

We pulled up to the property. It was run down and in disrepair. The \"lobby\" was unattended. We waited for 15 minutes after we pushed the buzzer. No one came. We left and went somewhere else. It was appalling!

Stay Away!!

It says there is breakfast. But they have a sign posted stating that the health department won’t allow them to serve breakfast. Which is a complete lie. The comforter is merely a decorative sheet. The room is ice cold. The hotel has no ice or vending machines available. This is by far the worst hotel on the planet!!

Even checking in around 8pm, the staff was reluctant to open the door and let us in. When asked to provide another blanket, I was told to walk to the office for it because the staff didn’t want to walk outside at night after dark. The blanket didn’t look clean. No ice machine. Noisy heater. Furnishings and linens were old. Overall, just not a very nice stay. I won’t be back and I don’t recommend it.

It was so disgusting that we ended up riding our bikes (bike packing) 5 miles out of the way to stay elsewhere.

No frills but fair value

This place was typical of motels from the 50's & 60's. The facilities were worn but clean, and everything functioned as intended. The toilet paper holder was broken, the desk chair reclined way too easily, and the ceiling lamp was very dim, but none of that really caused me any inconvenience. It's quite a climb up from Harper's Ferry by bike or foot, but easily accessed by car (as in Mo-tel.) The view is spectacular. I got fair value for my money

This was the dirtiest hotel I've ever been in, The dust on the floor under the bed was an inch thick. The floor clearly had never been swept. The security lock on our door had been broken off. The front desk person told me that Papa Johns delivered to the hotel, but they did not.

Upon arriving, they told us the room (large room with king sized bed) we booked was not available. When we told them we weren't interested in the other room they had (two queen beds), they refused to refund us and told us only Expedia could provide a refund. I just got off the phone with Expedia and was told I had to contact the hotel. I doubt the management will give it to us after initially refusing and misleading us about the refund process. I have booked through Expedia before, but this experience was so negative I'm reconsidering using this site ever again. We did not stay the night at this place and drove to a Holiday Inn Express instead. Asked for a king bed and got one. The room they showed us at Hillside was not great but I wasn't expecting an amazing room, just wanted what I paid for.
