What guests think

Across recent reviews, Courtyard Harrisonburg earns praise for a convenient location near JMU and spacious rooms, but feedback is mixed on cleanliness and upkeep, and recurring notes cite the pool and on-site dining often closed or limited.

Staff are frequently described as friendly and helpful, though some guests report slow responses, difficulty reaching a manager, and noise or room-change issues. Room comfort varies: several guests mention updated, quiet stays, while others note dated decor, TV or AC problems, and occasional noise near exits, elevators, or laundry. Expect a convenient, functional stay with variable maintenance and limited amenities.

The hotel itself is in need of repairs. The floors were dirty throughout. The bathroom smelled of urine and had several things broken. We also didn’t get a towel exchange despite being told we would. Potholes in the parking lot, holes in the wall, caulking needed in the shower, etc. For $300/night we expected a lot more.

This is a convenient spot for me, but the bar and restaurant were not open. This most definitely should be information given at time of booking. I specifically chose this location for the convenience of not having to leave after a 14 hour drive and another long haul the next day. Will not return.

Pool was closed for repairs. Bathroom fixtures were not up-to-date; hard to manage. Not enough handicapped parking spaces. Light over little couch didn't work. This place needs some care and attention.

NO soap in ladies' restrooms off the lobby. The pool was closed, which was a reason we booked there. The hotel was mediocre at $400/night. I feel taken advantage of for this. Left a bitter taste in my mouth to pick Marriott brand, which I always do.

This is a hotel that does not reflect the Marriot name. There seems to be a housekeeping problem. In our room the sheets did not fit the bed so had in fact curled off the mattress. The young lady at the front desk was very helpful and gave us another room. When I went to check it the room wasn’t made up. Pillows and comforter on the floor. Back to the front desk. Third time lucky. All this after a 10 hour drive. No Bistro, no coffee anywhere. Even on departure at 6 30. Lobby was dark, no coffee, no breakfast. Really poor performance.

Overall, the property was very worn and tired. My shower had mildew in it. There were a lot of scratches on the walls in the hallway, as well as near the elevator, and in my room. The balcony door was very difficult to open and close.

The room was comfortable, but the shower liner was missing, and the curtain was too high, so the bathroom floor flooded. All tiled floors in entrance and elevators were filthy. The carpet in the dining area was stained. The food in the “bistro” was awful. Never again!

Hair in shower, dust on desk light under tv console, ripped covers on bed bolsters, towel rack coming out of wall at vanity, shampoo empty, no hot food at breakfast by 9am, desk staff on cell phone upon approaching to check out didn’t look up for 10secs, no greeting. Upon complaining of housekeeping her response was that a manager could me later and offer me points. I’m not a bonvoy member!

I did not like the sheets, they wouldn’t stay over the edge. It’s annoying. I also did not like that there wasn’t a headboard. Instead there were gross pillows with covers that didn’t fit properly. The room was hot and I kept lowering the AC but it stayed the same temperature. It wasn’t super horrible though. I have stayed at worse places in Harrisonburg.

This is an old and tired hotel, in need of a gut-renovation. The bathroom was a 1970s throwback. Not good. On the plus side, the bed and bedding were good. Over all, disappointing for a Marriott property.

The first room we were given, the TV did not work, the second room we were given was fine, we unpacked and went to dinner, came back to find out the room across the hall had 2 barking dogs. We were told we could move but they couldn’t make the others move. We had to pack up and move to the 3rd room. Asked to see a manager and asked again when we checked out, I thought we deserved a credit, no manager there. Was told the manager would call, and as of this time no call ☹️

When we arrived at the hotel to check in they said that they were out of double queen bed rooms and they upgraded us to a king suite. The king suite has a king bed and a pull out couch. The pull out couch was a nightmare. The bar was in my ribs all night. And, this is t really their problem, but our car was rummaged through overnight in their parking lot.

After checking in at 10:30 pm after 13 hrs of driving, I was put in a room next to the laundry area. I was hoping to sleep in the morning til 8am, but was jolted awake at 6:30 by what sounded like power tools going non stop in the wall next to my bed. Turns out, its the laundry machines. No sound deadwning between that room & a guest room? Insane considering how loud it is & how early it starts up. I asked for a manager to discuss it & was told there wasnt one there. They took my name & cell #, but I never got a call. I would not stay there again & was supremely dissatisfied, both with the stay & with how my complaint was received & ignored.

I stayed at this Courtyard by Marriott during a business trip to JMU, and unfortunately, it was one of the worst Courtyard experiences I’ve ever had. When I first checked in, I was assigned a room directly next to the elevator. I immediately went back down to request a different room, and while the front desk agent did switch me, her attitude made the interaction less than welcoming. The new room was no better. It smelled strongly of mildew, felt dirty, and was very outdated. Honestly, it had more of a motel feel than what I would expect from a Marriott property. I couldn’t even relax because it gave me the uneasy feeling that I might bring bedbugs home. For context, I stayed at another Courtyard in Lynchburg the night before and had an amazing experience there. The difference between the two properties was night and day. I hope management takes the feedback seriously because this location does not meet the standards I’ve come to expect from Courtyard by Marriott.

I was put on the same floor as what seemed to be a high school basketball team. Clearly unsupervised. At 10:30 at night there seemed to be a party going on in the room next to me. When i called the front desk no one answered I went down to the front desk where 3 people were on the computers. I told them what was going on and one said she wouldn't call the room next to me. I went back to my room and one of the "players" was knocking on my door at pm, doing a piece sign. I called the front desk, fearing for my safety. One person did answer and came upstairs. By the time she got there, i was packed and ready to leave. The employee gave me a different room on a different floor. I dont understand why i was put in that unsafe position. Traveling alone. I think some of the employees need training in travelers checking in alone and not saying the room number out loud

It was perfectly fine for a couple nights, situated in a good area and easily walkable which is nice. We stayed during Parents Weekend at JMU. My only complaint was the lack of coffee available for patrons in the early morning hours, mostly due to the onsite Starbucks that opened late on weekend and ran behind schedule.

Please send me notice about why it is happend and posible actions that it will not repeat again. 2. For Marriot disfunction of air conditional is not exceptable. 3.There was not much offered for Breakfast and it was not Fast, meaning no breakfast. Thank you very much for not warning me at your website. 3. Will consider not to use your service and tell my friends on media.
