In town for class reunion and stayed here for the first time in many years. It was absolutely delightful. Staff couldn't have been more friendly (think southern hospitality on steroids) and helpful. We extended our stay for this reason. Had 2 meals in their restaurant and they were outstanding. Gift shop is can't miss its so unique and filled with fantastic gifts. We had king room with fireplace and realistically its more of a mini suite than just a room. We will repeat for sure.

Since I graduated from W&M, I've always wanted to stay at this place. No doubt it has a great location. But my disappointment started as soon as I arrived. No one outside to tell me where to park or help with bags. Walked in to a long line of people trying to check in with only 1 person working. The room itself was in need of a renovation. The restaurant and bar close early. Not what I expected. I won't be back.
