Not sure what happened to this place...
Our room was on the other side of the Maintenance room. A consistent, loud "wum wum wum" sound and vibration lasted the entire trip (3 nights). The shower took over 10 min to heat up. The first morning i gave up and took a cold shower (in December) befit it started to finally warm while i was rinsing off. We've stayed here before and it was fine. Even the free breakfast, which has always been good, was inedible.

Nice people and location. Needs a good cleaning
The staff were amazing. Very friendly and very attentive to requests. Close to old town Williamsburg. The building was a little worn. Great looking from outside, but inside was showing thr age. Back door, providing access to first floor, was off its track and set open all the time, making the hall temperature the same as outside temp. Breakfast room was sticky to wall on. Carpets needed vacuumed.

The first impression upon entering was the very distinct odor of marijuana. The second was upon entering the room. The restroom was not clean. The sink faucet was covered in something that was white and flaky. The bathtub was clean but the wall and ceiling over it looked like there had been leaks at some point, leaving a red/ orange residue. The third impression was the lack of hot water both days when showering. The shower was lukewarm at best.

It was adequate; however, if there is one bone to pick, it would be that the water pressure in the shower could use some improvements. Other than that, the staff were friendly and the bteakfast was better than anticipated.
