The Hillside Hotel

Very very basic

Although we stayed for one day, it was a memorable one for us. Location of the property is excellent! The Hillside provided the room that was upscale and hygienic. Staff was courteous! we would definitely make a comeback, probably in the month of may, 2023!

The surrounding of this place is amazing. Quick and efficient departure, friendly front desk, cozy room, outstanding bed, clean bathroom. Easy check-in and checkout processes contributed to the seamless stay. I highly recommend it for a memorable getaway.

The room was clean and nice. The water wouldn’t get hot. Finally after running it for 5 minutes, And couldn’t get the tv to turn on. Would stay again, The manager showed us the room before we checked in.

With a little maintenance this place could have been so much better. A fully made bed would have been nice. Did not meet any staff ,did communicate with manager communication was great.

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.

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.

This place was terrible, like something out of a nightmare. Bathroom dirty and stunk like vomit. The entire space was filthy. The bed had been slept in with black specs all over the sheets and some sort of black skid marks on them. Curtains wadded up and covered in mold. Gross, greasy carpet. I could go on with more but what’s the point. We could not get out of there fast enough. I’m very, very perplexed as to why ******* would have any association to this awful place.
