I am quite far behind with my travel sharing; this is just a brief post to share some photos of our drive through Shenandoah National Park in June of this year.

We traveled Skyline Drive from Front Royal to Tunnel Parking Overlook and back. There is a National Park entrance fee to drive this road.

I reserved a basic room, and received an upgrade to a king suite before I checked in on the app. We received two bottles of water when we stopped at the front desk for a spare key after we arrived. I also received a $30 daily credit for food and beverages. This could be used during any meal time in the hotel restaurant or bar; Houlihan's. Breakfast the last morning only totaled $28, so we received a $28 credit for that day.

This hotel has 5 floors, and our suite was on floor 3. I did not ask for a higher floor at check-in; however, staff checked a bit later, because the living room TV in our room did not initially work. A staff member came up to look at it, and could not figure out the problem. She offered us another suite on a lower floor, and then put in a call for repair first thing the next morning, as it was Sunday, after we decided not to change rooms. A few hours later, my husband was able to get the TV to turn on, and then it worked the rest of our stay.

| Living room in king suite 303 in DoubleTree Front Royal, Virginia |
This suite was nicely laid out. The living room by the entrance contained a sofa, soft chair, coffee table, end table and lamp, and work desk and chair under the large flatscreen TV. One large window in the room faced south. There were two thermostat controls; one in the living room, and one in the bedroom. Unfortunately, the furniture in the living room was dated, and not very comfortable.
