Room was very nice although A/C on last night was a little noisy,but was ok and reported. Room was very nice and clean. The maid... More

My husband and I stayed at this hotel Thursday- Monday. Check in went fine, and the place was clean and I felt safe, but there is definitely nothing special about this place. If you sleep late like 9 or 10 am... put your do not disturb sign on the door they come to clean as early as 8:30 one morning.... More

All the necessities were available. Comp breakfast is poor and very basic but it get's you through the day. Not memorable but cheap enough.

It's always the same. It's clean and the staff is always very nice and helpful. The indoor pool was great this stay as well. We will continue to visit here.

The hotel was really very nice, the staff were great, and the price was quite affordable. Nice, clean rooms, pretty good free breakfast (hot food, not just danishes), and super location, not far from sights and near a bunch of good restaurants. I'd stay there again in a heartbeat.

This is a comfortable and convenient location. The facility provides everything that we need and the staff is always helpful. We stay here quite frequently and our room is always clean. This stay was very quiet on the 2nd floor. The breakfast is only adequate and I seem to remember it being better some time back.

On our way to a ship's reunion in Norfolk, VA we found it an additional pleasure to stop a day early at the Best Western Plus Historic Area Inn in Williamsburg. We could spend a day in Colonial Williamsburg before traveling to Norfolk a hour's drive away. The room was clean, bed comfortable, and good choice of food at the... More

The room was nice, the staff were kind and we had a breakfast that was good. The only issue we had was the AC was a bit loud in the room and it didn't really get it cool; the thermostat said "64" but it wasn't much below 70-71 and humid. I didn't say anything because we were rushing out of... More
