Parking is a paid option, but amazingly convenient and worth every penny. I stay at a half dozen Residence Inns a year, and this location is the most walkable with the most nearby dining options of any. Views from some rooms are not great, but that's not why you chose to stay here. It's my new favorite stopover point between NC and the northeast, beating out Waynesboro, and both Richmond locations. I look forward to staying here again.
