Lila M.
The location is handy, near restaurants and Premium Outlets, and not too far from Busch Gardens. It’s a cheap motel that’s okay for a night or two. The bed was okay, the sheets were clean, the mini fridge was a good size and kept my water cold, and I didn’t see any live bugs. But the room had plenty of problems. The shower was too dirty to use, though the curtain was clean. The carpet was stained and filthy, two small bed pillows were flat, and one washcloth had a red stain. There was a dead roach under the sink. The AC cooled the room but made loud whining and squealing noises. The pool was closed; management said nights were too cold to keep it open. Lots of people sit on the balcony and look like they live there. The motel is right by train tracks. I heard at least three trains at night, and the sound was like five planes continuously going by. I live near an airport, and even there the noise is bad. Sometimes the AC drowned out the train.

We stayed over a week and had zero complaints. The owners and people running the place were kind and understanding, and everyone was so nice. It’s clean and quiet, the location is great, and the air conditioner really cranks. We’ll absolutely come back.

We checked in at 1:00 in the morning and were welcomed right away with a warm, friendly smile. The husband and wife who own the place are super pleasant, and the bed was so comfortable that I had a great night’s sleep.

My son stays at this hotel. It’s clean, quiet, and runs efficiently, with arrangements for both short and long stays. Guests do have to sign an agreement covering the guidelines and rules.

The staff were so kind, and the room was comfortable and clean. It’s an older motel, so some things feel dated, but the place is peaceful. If you’re after a quiet, quaint stay in Williamsburg, I’d recommend giving it a try.
