Colonial Beach does not have a lot of accommodations to offer, especially in the off season, and this is the only large motel. It is no longer a Day's Inn, as I believe it lost its franchise due to quality issues. There are all kinds of problems that I could recount, but if you are desperate, like we were, let... More

The cost is that of a typical family chain, 69.99-79.99. It is filthy and non of the rooms have even begun to refurbished. The place was closed by the IRS and some locals opened it with no backing. I left after an hour when I also found no linens, lights didn't work, floor and bed were downright nasty. There is... More

The floors in this place are GROSS, it looks like no one ever shampoos or cleans the carpets! We were highly displeased with our stay here due to the unkempt rooms. Let me put it this way our feet were BLACK after walking barefoot around our room for just a few minutes YUCK!!!!! More

If you have small children please do not stay at this motel. The room conditions are deplorable! There is mold everywhere. Walls are falling apart due to water damage. The pictures they post are staged! More

Good location right on the beach with Potomac River views. Very quite. Good rooms and everything worked. Quiet. Helpful, friendly staff. We flew into Washington that day and wanted somewhere nearby that would be easy and comfortable. That's exactly what it was! More

The Days Inn is in a very slow and under-financed renovation. I think the owners keep hoping they can either convert it to condos or sell it. It's obvious they don't care about their guests as they employ under-educated, insolent employees and have sub-standard maintenance and cleanliness. There are other places to stay---Doc's Motor Court is really charming as is... More
