I recently traveled to Winchester, Virginia to participate in a Bishop's Event, i.e., the "Third Winchester Battlefield 5k/10k/Half Marathon" event to raise money for a great charity, i.e., twenty-five percent of any profits scheduled to be received by a charity that provides assistance to medical researchers and/or patients in need of an organ transplant.
I thought the Courtyard by Marriot Winchester was a lovely place to stay and I had a day or so to rest up for my event plus also enjoyed walking around the local area, not far from a nearby hospital/surgical center behind the hotel plus some very nice shop (e.g., a Walmart, a gas station, and several small restaurants, e.g., an Applebee's, a "Bojangles" fried chicken place, an IHOP and two banks in the shopping center just a few short steps away, i.e., adjacent to the hotel.
So, I enjoyed a little bit of shopping, purchased a couple of cool cotton t shirts and shorts for the summer months. I also thought the people at the front desk of the hotel were very welcoming and gracious, happily informing me of the fact that the local apple blossom festival which had just started and numerous activities that would be occurring to kick-start this annual festival in the local Winchester area. (I didn't attend any of these events but it was nice to know others would be enjoying a very special time or weekend and although I was there for a different reason, it all combined to create a pleasant, welcoming and quiet atmosphere.)
