Super 8 by Wyndham Front Royal Near Shenandoah National Park

Super 8 by Wyndham Front Royal Near Shenandoah National Park

10/10 Excellent
"This motel was very easy to find and convenient to many things, plus just down the road from the entrance of the Skyline Drive. I was greeted by Brian and he was very pleasant and extremely helpful in a genuine manner. (Hate hotels were the staff is so stuffy) Room was clean , and the bed comfy. It's a non smoking hotel, but it would be nice to add a sitting area outside to smoke. While they do have little "smoking stations" for cigarettes.... To enjoy a pipe or cigar is a nice hour ...and a glass of bourbon."
