    Nothing There were holes in the bathroom door, front door you could tell had been kicked in. It was so sketchy we left after 10 minutes

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Adorable little hotel - clean and well kept. Felt like we had traveled back in time to a quaint lodging in the 1950’s. Only minutes away from Historic Williamsburg! Nothing!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Nothing Roaches, stains everywhere, everything was broken, the toilet moved, red and yellow stains in the bathroom, claw marks on the floors, beds had stains in them, towels were all yellow, neighbors were awake the whole time and probably lived there

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Location No hot water the last 2 visits. The couple who ran in in October of 2025 were much more customer friendly. Canceled my July appointment. Need curtains above heater/ AC. SUN wakes you up at 630am. Gave the him towels never brought me replacement. Sad was our 3 or 4th stay. Price & location good for Williamsburg.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very dirty the whole room smelled of cigarettes despite being a non smoking room Multiple hairs in multiple colors throughout the bedding Layers of dust so thick on the headboard I could leave messages on it and see outlines of past guests Bathroom floor was extremely sticky Also, the address did not show up in Google and sent us to the wrong location.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Good value for money. Helpful staff. Not far from W&M campus. Good shower Noisy and smelly AC unit. Noisy neighbors. Musty odor.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Room was very cozy. Well worth the price, actually love the nostalgia of this place. The bed was too firm. Water wasn’t hot enough and shower head was a little low.

    Close to colonial Williamsburg and William and Mary College, and the train station. You can walk to many things and the bus line is right there. There is a railroad line across the street that sometimes has freight trains but not bothersome at all. Fairly quiet. It's an older motel with a porcelain tub but some updates microwave, refrigerator freezer, TV, very clean and well maintained. Only one waste basket in the bathroom but that's just a minor annoyance. There is a deadbolt along with the button knob on the handle for the outside door but the key only worked for the button knob. I don't know if that's their policy or seems like they need to rekey the deadbolt so that you can also lock it from the outside. You can lock the dead bolts from the inside just not from the outside.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    Location was good and check in was ok. The beds were comfortable and bedding was clean. The carpet was very dirty and the light fixtures over the nightstand had some type of wiring issue and worked randomly.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

  • Engine customer Jan 2026
