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.

clean and tidy room with clean bathroom

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.

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.
