you are located right in the colonial area of Williamsburg which is really great . The rooms are small and it was a bit tough to connect with cleaning staff to make up our rooms. I am glad we tried it out, but I think I will head back to a more traditional hotel for a few more amentities

The rooms were very plain. There was one full-size bed in our room that two people slept in, but I knew that going in it was rustic because it’s Williamsburg and I picked rustic. However, I gladly would’ve taken the room upgrade.

Very nice historic property, easy walkable and with many beautiful renovated and rebuils buildings from the colonial past. The standard doublerooms are pretty small and so are the beds. I would recommend booking a suite or a house for slightly more comfort.
