I hate to be too tough on a Mom & Pop place; they are the forefathers of the travel industry and I respect their survival in a cut throat business. That said, certain standards should apply; cleanliness, comfort, safety, affordability, and equality of rooms. Besides safety, this motel failed all of the aforementioned. The rooms were not clean; along with... More

The Hillside is worn and tired and owners need to upgrade. It is a bargain at the price but even budget travelers would pay for wifi, coffee in the room and quiet plumbing. The location and people are great but the facility is in need of TLC.

I loved my stay. This was my fouth time Sam and Linda was wonderful as always. I can say it is nice to be on first names it makes you feel like you are at home. Rates are good. Pool and rooms were clean. I like it because it also is right in the middle of things. We also had... More

I wanted to like this motel very much based on earlier reviews, but it just didn't deliver. The biggest complaints: paper-thin walls (we were woken up at 6am by our neighbor talking on her cell phone); no deadbolt or other secondary lock on door; distinctly uncharming decor. On the plus side, it was mostly clean (dirty washcloth hanging on rod... More

Everything was great during our stay at Hillside. I felt like I was at my moms. Highly recommend for the experience. Rates are outstanding. Would stay here again if ever in the area. The only cons are there is no phone or clock in the rooms which would be helpful but would not keep me from staying again.

The service at this motel is very good. The location and price are very good. The pool is small but it is well kept and clean. The rooms are dated but are also very clean.As another reveiwer put it, it is like stepping back in time. All the employees we had contact with were very friendly. The location is great.... More

Hillside Motel is a small Mom and Pop operation on Rte 211 just outside of Luray Va. I checked several other motels first and found this one to be the most reasonable in the vicinity. While traveling through Luray I noticed other motels which have higher rates ($85-109) were empty, while the Hillside was more than half full. So the... More

I just got back from a few days in Shenandoah and stayed at the Hillside Motel. It was more than I could have asked for for such a reasonable rate. The room was very clean and the bathroom was spacious. The refrigerator and microwave were a total bonus. The hotel has a small pool that was also very clean and... More

The rooms were average size, however the ceilings were very low. It had a refrigertor and microwave but no table or counter space. The carpeting is VERY DIRTY. My grandkids' feet were black after being on them for awhile. It smelled of mildew/mold. The owner/employees were very nice and extremely helpful. They haven't had any break ins or the like... More
