The property was dirty and outdated. The bathroom was small the door stuck and couldn’t shut it all the way. Drawers off of the desk and chest were falling off and the smoke detector was handing from the ceiling. The mattress was lumpy and it was difficult to move or fall to sleep. They did have a coffee pot that actually worked. Not enough of plug ins for devices and they gave us three different remotes for the tv and none of them worked. Customer service was horrible.

The entries for this place in WAZE and in other Google searches list it as permanently closed. It is not, but it caused me confusion as I attempted to call them while on the road, and the number was listed as out of service (from a Siri query.) I had to stop and search fo another number to find the correct number and confirm I had a reservation. And--it's variously listed as the Knights Inn and the Hillside Hotel. It's the latter. And the place is REALLY worn down. Old furniture, falling apart furniture, nasty bedspread, no TV remote, no coffee, and NO DINING AREA as shown in pictures. You're getting what you pay for.

The owner was extremely rude, the facilities were dirty to say the least. The sheets were staying the pillow cases were stained, the walls had so splattered all over them, the shower had hair in it, they were dead bugs in the window seal, there was writing all over the lamp shade, the bathroom door was busted somebody had kicked it in from the back, the paint was scraped off the walls I would not recommend anyone to stay at this place

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.

There was no hot water in two of the three rooms we reserved. Towels and sheets were ancient such that maybe they were clean but they did not look it. My room had toiletries left over from the previous resident. Key return was not secure so anyone could have gone into our rooms after we left.

Ac/heater unit smelled like urine when on. Curtains and towels appeared to have blood on them. The floor was sticky and the place had strange people hanging outside the rooms making lots of noise. Lamp shade look like it came out of the trash bin. Overall the worst place I have ever stayed at. I have to be honest in this case.

We arrived at 9:00 PM and there was nobody at the office to let us into our room. There was a number to call but all we could do was leave a voicemail. We never received a call back, even the next day. We had to drive another 40 minutes to another hotel. Also note that it is listed as being 1.6 miles from Harper’s Ferry. Possibly as the crow flies but it was a 35 minute drive.

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.

Horrible! Don't stay there!
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!
