“Like the documentary "Life after People"”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 October 2011
4
people found this review helpful

We were stuck here for one night when the campground at Shenandoah was full. It's definitely shabby and is like the documentary "Life After People" when humanity dies and nature takes over. We made the best of it and took our shabby broken chairs outside on the balcony and watched the beautiful mountains, birds, traffic on the interstate, and autumn foliage. We hung out until the next morning when we departed for the national park. It is, indeed, a pretty shabby decrepit building for sure but our room was clean, the grounds were well-kept, and everything that should have worked worked. We likened this place to the Bates Motel for sure, but, hey, life is an adventure and our long weekend was more memorable for having stayed in this weird place!!! We lived and enjoyed to tell our tale!

“Slum! A shirtless drunk came out of a room and helped me with my bags.”

This was at one time a beautiful resort style hotel. Now thirty years later it has nasty smelly carpet, old broken furnature and fixtures, broken unpainted sidewalk and walls. There is a homeless camp living there that trades small "repairs" for room and board. I can not express how filthy and bug infested it was in words. HORRIBLE!!!

“Disgusting and deplorable!! Worst experience ever! Condeim this place please!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2011

people found this review helpful

Wish I had stuck to my first impression of this place. The motel sign was busted. the concrete was cracking but we decided to give it a chance. The room was dirty. The ceiling was cracking and water damaged as well as the pictures on the wall. We couldn't rest due to some man using a sander. The staff was rude and unfriendly. What really put the icing on the cake was when some bald guy tried to enter our room with the master key, with us in the room!. The only thing That stopped him was the chain lock on the door! We had had enough and went to ask for a refund the owner of the place said "no way". We also asked about the bald guy trying to enter the room and the owner said "That was me, I was just going to check the room." YEAH RIGHT! he was going to see if there was anything he could take. The olnly satisfaction we got was telling them what a disgusting dump the place was and that we would never return. Nasty, disgusting and creepy, like the bates motel in the movie Psyco. Please don't stay here. Nasty !

“Terrible Experience”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 July 2011

people found this review helpful

I had a horrible experience at the afton inn a few weeks ago. First, the rooms were filthy. The door did not work well and was very difficult to lock. Shortly after my arrival there was a man pacing through the parking lot yelling very loudly. This went on (on and off) for several hours. When I complained to the employees nothing was done. The man was not asked to stop yelling. The worst part of the stay was in the morning when I tried to shower. The shower was not working properly (the handle was broken). When I finally got the water to turn on it was cold. When I went to the office at 5:30 am I was told they "had to turn a switch on" and there would be hot water in an hour. I had to leave for work in an hour. STAY AWAY from this place!

“Awful”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 June 2011

people found this review helpful

I live in the area of Afton Inn. Years and I do mean years ago this facility was wonderful. They had a banquet room, entertainment at night, pool and nice rooms. This place is a eye-sore to say the best - I have not been in the building for over 10 years but drove up there one day just to see if they were still open. The sign Saying Afton Inn looks like a tornado hit it & from reading other comments I can't believe this place is still open. I believe everyone and I mean everyone should stay away from this place. I am doing my best to investigate WHY this place can remain open & the page describing Afton Inn is still being allowed on the internet - completely false information...so steer clear!
