It was a good stay. We knew it was an old building and we like to find those and check them out. I would like to eat there sometime and we will most likely stop again. Had dinner in the tavern. It was good.

Very unique piece of history to stay in. It's like a step back into time. Love the water well that is preserved in the dining room. Each room is different. It's not a chain hotel vibe if that's what you're looking for - it's way better than that!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We arrived on Saturday, October 7. First we had a problem checking in, they said because we changed our date from the 6 to the 7. We would be getting the cheaper $84 room. I paid the full purchase price at the time of booking, that was approximately $234. We were told someone was coming in for that room, I was never told over the phone that we could not have the suite room we booked. We were told next that they just “threw “ us in a different room. This room was so filthy and the tiles in the bathroom were falling off, there was mold in the caulking and the bathtub had hair & dirt in it. I turned the fan on in the ac unit and was hit in the face with so much dust and mold smell. We could not stay in the room and left at 11pm. I was told by the manager that we would be getting a refund earlier in the evening, that was two months ago, No refund yet. After returning home I became so sick from infections due to the mold and had to go to the doctor, now due to this problem I now have a mold issue, now my immune system is compromised due to the filth we encountered at this Inn! Never would we recommend this establishment to anyone. Had this been handled better with the management things might have been different. Just a side note, the person at the front desk rudely told myself and the next couple how much she hated Expedia, funny since that’s who we all rented the rooms through! I’m out $200 for a room we never were able to sleep in, thank God we left when we did! Never again!

Exactly what we wanted!
The inn was amazing! Beds were perfect and the shower was out of this world. Needed a thicker comforter but heat worked great. Entertainment director was super friendly and helpful. Only drawback was we were there when the tavern was closed. Have to try it out next time....there will definitely be a next time!

This place is oozing with charm and history. Lovely people work here. Very, very old building - don't expect standard rooms. But if you are willing to go down historical paths - you will love this inn. In other words, showers are squeezed into small spaces and floors and walls slant in places. Otherwise, they provide all the basic amenities and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there if I pass through again.

Stayed at the Wayside Inn/Larricks Tavern in Middletown (basically on the Cedar Creek battlefield). A quaint historical place, like staying in someone's fancy home. I will return here on future explorations of the Shenandoah.

This is a wonderful old inn. The place lacks contemporary convenience. Our bathroom was Lilliputian, however the place reeked of our country's history. We loved it. A great inn experience requires a few things. Hot water. A good bed. A place to have a Pint. A genial host. Five stars all around.
