We have been going to Gettysburg for over 20 years. We have stayed at the Colton for the past 15. Granted its not the ritz but if you want a clean room, great location and and outstanding general manager Brenda and her staff are top notch!! They are all about hospitality!! Can't wait to return at the end of June... More

Once again,for pure value and location,the colton was awesome! If your looking for vegas style hotels,this isn' t it,but for a decent place to stay in a great area and good price,the colton can' t be beat! Will be back again next year!

Very accomodating staff! Could not ask for a better location, stayed in room 12. Nothing fancy, great for the price! Only drawback-no hairdryer:( Highly reccomend, already planning on going back! Tommy's Pizza was excellent, great food and service!

Beanda is a sweetheart a will make sure you have everything you need. The motel is located in the middle of town so walking to everything is possible. I stayed in room 20 lots of room and clean with a nice glider outside the room door.

You really can't beat the price.If you're bringing kids,it's cheap enough(compared to other nearby lodging) that you could probably spring for two rooms. This place is dated, but clean. It's walking distance to lots of shops and eateries. No frige or coffee maker( the wiring in the motel is too old for them). You could walk to the circle in... More

My friend and I stayed here while visiting the battlefield. You can't beat the price but there's a few things to be aware of: as mentioned previously, the cemetery side rooms are the quietest, the tv in our room was the old tube style and you may want to bring your own toilet paper. The supplied TP is somewhere between... More
