No pool, no hot tub, no in-room whirlpool, no free breakfast (standard Motel 6 no-breakfast model). Recent 5-star praise: ‘this motel is not fancy, as it’s a Motel 6, but it was probably the cleanest room I’ve ever rented. Everything was spotless. The bed was comfortable as well. There is easy access to and from the interstate, but it was very quiet. There was a very good restaurant close by as well’ (February 2025, nhlupine) and ‘was a wonderful place nice and quite had a blast with the family there it was just what we needed comfy beds big rooms and mins from all the shopping here I would definitely recommend it to all my friends and family. Just stop in friendly staff awesome room service’ (December 2024). A January 2025 review notes the property is family-owned and praises ‘Mr. Prem’ warmly - the reviewer flagged one specific rude night-shift front-desk employee but said ‘I will be coming back here to get a good laugh, and I promise that you will want to come back.’ Martinsburg sits on I-81 in the Eastern Panhandle - Harpers Ferry NHP is 30 minutes east, Antietam Battlefield 45 minutes east, Berkeley Springs 30 minutes west. Best for I-81 value overnights, budget Harpers Ferry NHP day-trippers, budget Berkeley Springs spa-town travelers, dog-owning travelers and repeat I-81 corridor travelers who have found this well-run franchise and rebook.

What Guests Are Saying

“I wasn’t going to stay here because of what other people say but good thing I did I looking for a hotel to stay for the week because I had a biasness trip and I booked at this hotel, and let me tell you it was outstanding in every way this is a family-owned business and the employees are great, the young man at the desk was very polite and made sure I had a great time staying there, and the housekeepers were great, but the was one problem when i went to the lobby at 6::30 in the morning the lobby was locked, I rang the bell 9 times pulse it was freezing outside, so after 25 minutes a young lady opened the door and she didn’t greet me or anything, when i came back an hour later to get coffee the young man was there I asked him for his name so I can greet him by his name but if you want to be leave with a smile on your face and have a good laugh I just make sure Mr. Prem is there not the young lady she was very rude to me, but I will be coming back here to get a good laugh, and I promise that you will want to come back, Thank you, Mr. Prem, for making my stay a great see you soon.” — Steave G., 5 stars

“This motel is not fancy, as it’s a Motel 6, but it was probably the cleanest room I’ve ever rented. Everything was spotless. The bed was comfortable as well. There is easy access to and from the interstate, but it was very quiet. There was a very good restaurant close by as well. Also a gas station with a small convenience store next door. Would definitely stay here again.” — nhlupine, 5 stars
