“Staying here could be a gamble; while some rooms impress with cleanliness and space, others might miss the mark. I noted its proximity to downtown attractions is a definite plus for exploring Staunton on foot. If you're prioritizing location and value, it's worth considering, but be prepared for a mixed experience.”
