Guests say
Guests generally appreciated the convenient location of the hotel, which was close to major attractions like Colonial Williamsburg. The staff were frequently praised for being friendly and helpful, particularly during breakfast service. However, there were significant complaints regarding the service experience, including unhelpfulness from staff, issues with plumbing, and reservation mix-ups. Guests noted the need for renovations as the hotel appeared dated. Additionally, many found the bed comfort lacking and mentioned problems with room keys. Overall, while the location and staff received positive remarks, there were several areas for improvement.

Anonymous, Sept 2017
Pros (+) I liked the price and the courtesy of the employees.
Cons (-) The fan in the bathroom was broken as well as having metal bits stuck in the outlets. The staff woke us up early. Although they were courteous, 9 am is too early to be knocking on our door if not requested.

Michelle, Nov 2016
Pros (+) This motel is very close to Colonial Williamsburg and Merchant's Square - about a 10 to 15 walk across some railroad tracks. Yes, there is rail line nearby but the noise didn't bother me much. The hotel was clean, something that is very iffy at this price point. The towels were also especially fluffy and nice for the lower quality of the rest of the room. Staff was very nice in every interaction I...
Cons (-) The room is very rundown and outdated. The sheets were low quality, the bed was a bit hard but lumpy, and there was a hole in my blanket. You can hear the train, which may bother some.
