What guests think

At Super 8 by Wyndham Front Royal Near Shenandoah National Park, travellers report friendly staff and a convenient location near Skyline Drive, but experiences vary due to dated conditions, limited breakfast, and inconsistent upkeep that affects comfort and confidence.

Common concerns include very limited continental breakfast and frequent maintenance issues (creaking tubs, noisy HVAC or fridges, worn fixtures), with occasional reports of bugs and unpleasant odors.

We had a wheelchair bound person. Your small entrance door did not have an automatic button. Getting up to the door was really hard. It was steep and the crack at the curb level was too deep requiring backing over the crack and pulling up the steep incline to a door that opens outward. This made our coming and going really difficult. The continental breakfast was really small. No english muffins eggs or breakfast meat. The only fruit was apples. No bananas? No one at the desk regularly. Vending machines empty in the lobby. I feel like a hotel practically at the entrance of skyline drive should be more enticing.

My room was fine, clean but had some issues. One of the bedside lamps did not work. The refrigerator was loud. The a/c unit was even louder with a very bad vibrating racket. I had to turn off the unit to sleep. The elevator was a bit dirty with grafitti on the inside door and cracked tiles on the floor. The breakfast was toast, cereal, or pancakes. No juice, no bagels or muffins, no yogurt, no eggs, no bacon or sausage. Not good at all. It was basically starch on a paper plate.

The hotel common areas are showing their age with flooring paint and wallpaper being damaged. The room was fine, pillows flat and uncomfortable. It’s a little odd that the door locks flash red when the key card is used but the lock does unlock. I saw a couple of guests experiencing the same confusion. There were a couple of sketchy characters at the front and in the parking lot when we arrived. One fellow was dancing a unique dance outside the front door which was a little concerning. Another young lady was sitting in her car with it running for the better part of the two nights we were there; not threatening but looking suspicious. Price was reasonable, room clean but not restocked after our first night. Parking lot lighting and proximity are good. Check in was easy online. The hotel is closest to our destination but we will probably drive a little farther and pay a little more in our next trip.

The property was showing its age. Our room was missing a fire detector. Notable areas of wear of an aging building. Staff was very helpful. Continental breakfast was non existent it seemed like there was going to be stuff but there was nothing, and the juice machine had an out of order sign on it. I know it was a lower end hotel type but it was a little underwhelming even for an 8.

The good...close to the river and state parks, restaurants very close and a few stores nearby as well. The bad...room had roaches, second room we got after discovering roaches had a used syringe behind the nightstand. Fridge had crumbs in it, wasn't clean. Rooms were dirty, floors looked like they haven't been vacuumed in awhile. Very poor cleaning staff apparently. Hotel is outdated. There is a smell throughout the hotel, it smells really bad. Seems like ownership just doesn't care about the conditions in the hotel. The staff is helpful and pleasant but the rest of the hotel is definitely not.

I saw two roaches during my stay. Still, it is a reasonably decent place for the price. I suggest you pack your belongings in sealed plastic bags and unpack the rest in the driveway when you get home.

This is late I know bit our very first night after a long ride driving from Florida to Front Royal was terrible on that Motel 8.Bed bugs all over me Notes arms and thighs and torso. We were promised compensation free charge that first night but did not happen We could not sleep all night on our first night. A bed bug is the worst nightmare one can experience on a vacation.

Pro: It was great that they could accommodate our dog. Con: The constant slamming of the room doors toward the evening and throughout the night that was a bit of an irritant. We've stayed at this same hotel before and never remember that much noise from the doors.

The hotel room was quite clean, except the window could use a good wash. The elevator and halls could also use a good cleaning. Our bed in room 220 needs a foam cover as the mattress is a bit too hard. All in all for the price and for a one night stay was fine.

Let me start off by saying I have never wtote a hotel review. The first night that we arrived it was very late. I was traveling with my husband and child in one room and older son and friend in another room. When we arrived we went to our room. The first issue was the TV did not work. Figured its late were going to sleep soon we will address that in the morning. The first time we flushed the toilet it clogged. My husband went down stairs to tell them and also advise about the TV. They sent him backnwith a plunger and told him to unplug the TV and plug it back in. We had already tried that and tried different outlets. It didnt work. The next morning I got up to get around. I went to use the hotel hair dryer and when I did that didnt work. I figured out Ill unplug it and use mine that I brought. When I went to unplug it a COCKROACH crawled out of the outlet! The outlet and was cover in roach droppings. I took a video and went down to the front desk. I asked for the manager. Was told he wouldnt be available till after 1:00pm. After 10 minutes of standing at the front desk asking for a refund, a manager, or even the number to cooperate the lady texted the manager. When he called me he told me he could only refund my money if I checked out. Fair enough I didnt want to continue staying at the hotel. When I went back to the desk to get a refund. This was a Friday morning I was told I couldnt get one till the following week.

I traveled with my daughter, who needed a good night's sleep. The room across from us had a VERY LOUD man speaking at the top of his voice until nearly midnight. I tried to call the front desk - my room phone was non functional. I tried on my cellphone 4 times, and no answer. I finally had to go knock on the door myself to confront the person. The next day I was told, the front desk may have been sleeping... and I could come down to tell them next time - ummmm, in my pajamas at midnight - no thank you. The next night also a VERY LOUD couple arguing.. I again had to call front desk on my cellphone. They answered this time and called the offenders.

This Super 8 was a disappointment. The building was kind of run down, and it's location is far from the interstate. The place looked like they dont have much business, yet they could not let me in my room when i arrived at 1 pm. Most hotels will be more flexible. Then, the final negative thing was being awoke at 8 am with a text message and an email asking me to check out, and when would I be leaving the room. That was totally rude. I almost never give a negative review, but sadly this time i need to do that.
