We had No Heat in our room! Cold wet Dec night & no heat.. nothing was done about it either!! You would think they would've tried to make it right somehow, but they did not!
Had stayed here before & thought it was a suitable place to stay again, but not this time around!
Very cute, peaceful. Great for the price. Didn't enjoy Williamsburg that much, but that's not the hotels fault. However. Many of their appliances were out dated. The fridge was missing pieces. The microwave tended to not work. Some basic repairs and updated appliances would have made this place perfect.
My mom and I stayed here just to visit Colonial Williamsburg. It was the perfect fit for us! It was about a 15 min leisurely stroll from the hotel to Duke of Gloucester Street (the main drag). There is a sidewalk most of the way however, part of the sidewalk is on the side of the road going over a bridge, and there were two spots close together where you have to use a crosswalk. My mom and I felt perfectly safe walking to and from Duke of Gloucester St even at night, but the flashlight on my phone was definitely necessary at night. Also be aware that once you use both crosswalks there is a stretch of sidewalk with large tree roots so it will be difficult with a traditional stroller, and I’m not sure transportation for handicapped visitors will really work.
As to the hotel: the lady who checked us in was very friendly, and the room was clean and comfortable. They didn’t really have room service where you call the front desk and they bring you something, but there was a list of nearby restaurants to order from. The continental breakfast was quite lacking, but at least there was something. All in all, if you want a nicely priced place to stay for the night within walking distance of Colonial Williamsburg this is the place to stay. If you don’t mind driving (which would include paying for parking) and want to be at a nice hotel I would keep looking. My mom and I were happy I picked this hotel and plan staying here again the next time we want to visit Colonial Williamsburg.
The one and only negative was slow internet speed. Everything else was excellent.

It was fine
I’ve stayed here a few times. It’s not my number one location as it seems like there are people that live there, but it was adequate. I didn’t really trust the cleanliness of the unit and I didn’t like the shower or bathroom. The entire place could stand to have an update, but Other than that I didn’t have any problems. I did not see any bugs or dust or anything so egregious it would stop me from staying there again. It was fine. One last thing I didn’t like was the fact that the entire complex did not have the heat turned on so I had to go to the front desk and get a space heater. 😡
