Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Worst motel

It was gross. The hotel was sketchy with a weird man hanging around the front of the hotel. The bathtub was rusted and chipping. The pillows smelled like urine which made my hair stink and to make it all worse there was no late check out and the property manager literally waited outside my door as I was trying to get my things and leaves. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone. The whole experience was horrible.

the room was clean and tidy. bathroom was clean. the only drawback was the bed/mattress was not firm enough (slumped down on one side). other than that, the room was quiet and the stay was comfortable.

Considering it was only $60 and near Busch Gardens/Colonial Williamsburg, it was very nice! You get what you pay for. My bf didn't find the beds to be very comfortable, but they were fine for me. Note: the only ventilation you'll get in the bathroom is a window. There are no fans or vents in there.

Unassuming and surprisingly comfortable. All rooms were on the ground floor which made for easy access. I was able to park directly in front of my room, Check in and check out was customer friendly and effortless. I am mostly pleased by the cleanliness of the room and updated photos of a model room. This is the first motel I booked that did not smell like smoke or smelled unclean. I will definitely use this motel again.

Wonderful

My Experience was there was great. Friendly staff as always and rooms where cleaned and smell fresh as we walked in. I was suppose to check in at 2 but called hotel at 11 and they already had a room ready for me. This is my 3rd time stating here and trust me when I say there will be more stays here.

Comfortable bed

It was great for the price (I think I paid $50 a night). This is a no frills motel. The bed is comfortable and it was relatively quiet. However, I could hear the people and tv in the room next to mine. I just turned on the fan. It’s in a convenient location to the freeway and to colonial Williamsburg. There is a bbq restaurant walking distance from the motel but I didn’t get a chance to try it.

Great value for the price.... budget motel!

Room was exactly as advertised and other reviews were accurate. Clean, comfortable room for your overnight usage. Budget friendly and fine for our 4 night stay. You get what you pay for. Only negative mentions were towels being very thin, could use more lighting by the desk area and A/C could use an upgrade but it was OK, although I like it quite cold when I sleep.

Quiet and close to the big attractions

If you just need a quiet, cheap place to crash in between day trips, you cant go wrong with this place. Its pretty bare bones so your getting what you pay for.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness
I chose this property based on the previous rating and felt like I was mislead. The upholstered furniture was molding in the corners. I wouldn't sit in them. When I was checking the bed for cleanliness I found a dirty washcloth in-between the mattress and the head board. If it wasn't for me checking in as late as I did, and the perceived availability for the other hotels in the area, I would have requested a refund and gone elsewhere.

No more cheap hotels for me!

Old place, location nice close to interstate. AC didn’t work well, crack in shower head, had put washcloth over connection keep from spraying everything in the bathroom. Very basic, back to the 60’s for sure. Came back around 9, and people who live there smoking - sitting around my room. Room smelled like cigarettes. People who own or run the motel are very sweet. Also, the bedroom window was cracked from something hitting the window.
