Lousy service. Never had a dirtier motel. Far from

Lousy service. Never in my 70+ yrs have I had such an awful stay. Weeds out front near sign that said under new mgt. Poor paving. Looks neglected like no one cares which turns out to be true. Tv NOT hooked up and no radio. Stained towels. Had to clean tub, toilet and sink myself. Actually had the nerve to put me in a FILTHY ROOM. No phone. No food nearby. Had to walk for 20 min. to a convenience store. Lucky for me there was a pleasant young man who APPRECIATED my business at the convenience store. Thank God there was some human kindness from him. People at motel(owners I guess????) appeared to not care whether you were there or not. Seemed to enjoy giving American people the brush off. Not even cool! Veterans and senior citizens are treated with disdain. Should be reported to BBB local health compliance investigative authority. Soooooo disappointed that VA allows such irresponsible humans to have a business like they do. Probably owe taxes and maybe owe Money to local businesses.

This could be a nice hotel unfortunately its newly bought and i dont know what is happening but there's next to no staff we stayed eight days at first it was nice but we asked for sheets never got new ones. Had to beg for towels the room had a weird smell in the bathroom like a backed up sewer they were paving the driveway and it smelled horrible. The owner was yelling about keeping the room clean ugh this is a hotel room not an air bnb and apparently theres no maid staff except this guy and his wife we were planning on staying another week but canceled

Was there from Friday night till Tuesday morning they only gave me half a roll of toilet paper for the entire length of the stay they also did not give me any soap or shampoo like they mentioned on the website when booking. They also did not come in at all to clean or make the bed the entire stay. The bed is nice and at least comfortable so that was at least a plus but the air conditioner is very loud and buzzes a lot so I had to sleep with earplugs in to avoid getting a headache the entire time. It’s pretty much fend for yourself. Make sure you bring toilet paper for yourself because you’re not gonna get it. All they gave me was half a roll and some towels for the bathroom.

NOT handicap accessible in ANY way.

Not at all handicap accessible. Nonsmoking room reeked of smoke and bed linens had burn holes. Room under construction and not finished. Lights missing. Hotel staff unavailable at night. They wanted to charge a dollar for a second room key. Two sets of towels for 4 people. No breakfast offered. No parking spaces available in the immediate area, as there were piles of construction materials in several parking spots. Hotel employee (manager) became agitated and called police when my wife grazed his monster truck (no scratches or dents, just clearcoat). This should have been settled amicably with an information exchange. My recommendation is to AVOID this motel at all costs.

Quick night stay

Hotel was under renovation in some rooms, our room had broken towel bar, light was uncovered with exposed wire over vanity sink, comforter and sheets had holes in them. Thank God it was just myself and husband and we were only there for a cheap quick stay, if not I would have booked else where. I don't understand how Hotels.com can advertise a place like this and feel good about it. They should have closed hotel until renovations were completed. That being said; hotel was i a great location for what we needed to do. Quick to get to where we needed to go.

They had just replaced TVs w/ flat screens and TV service itself was great. Same impression as with other VA motel stays - it's a room. Water pressure was fine and the room had been made up perfectly beforehand. I just wish that these sort of places had enough traffic in order for them to afford the throw out their upholstered items so that smells can be adequately eliminated.

Inexpensive for basic accomodations. Sleep/shower.

For what our needs were, this was a fine room. We were just staying the night while visiting with our daughter at school. We were using the room for sleeping and showering. The shower was quite narrow, making it a bit tight for my husband. But it was clean. The beds were comfortable, though the flat sheet was rather thin. On the bright side, it was quite soft.

No housekeeping service. Our room says nonsmoking but you could smell that someone had smoked in there. There were cigarette packs in the garbage can when we arrived. We spotted a few bugs.

Basic but worth the money

This is a you-get-what-you-pay-for kind of place, and so long as you go in with that attitude, you won't be disappointed. The beds were comfortable, the a/c worked well, there were enough towels, and while the bathtub needed some basic maintenance, the shower worked very well, and there was plenty of hot water. This motel is basic, but I would stay here again if I were in Williamsburg on a budget. It's conveniently located to everything: Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestowne, Yorktown, Busch Gardens, the Outlet Mall, restaurants. There was never anyone manning the office, but on the two occasions (check in, and when we needed extra towels), the response was fast and friendly.

Did not expect hotel to be up-to-date with price. However, immediately saw roach and other bug on refrigerator. Room smelled like old cigarette smoke and mold, though non-smoking. Hard to regulate air. You get what you pay for, but would it stay here again!

They need a remodel.

To check in we had to wait for about 20mins for the proprietor to come because he locked the rental office door and the employee couldn't get in to do anything. The proprietor came he apologized, we then did the paperwork. When my husband and I got to our room there wasn't a mirror in the bathroom.There was paint peeling above the shower. The under blanket had holes. The bed however was extremely comfortable. We tried to get onto Wi-Fi because it was free, but couldn't link.So I let it go until the next day and asked at the office. The lady told me that one of the routers were damaged during a storm. They could've said that in the beginning, makes me feel like they knew but hoped no-one wanted to use it in our section, since we were in a separate 4-5 room building. There were black marks under the front window from maybe luggage. Now I'm not expecting 5stars, but there are little things that would have made it better.

Filthy/ disgusting facility with ROACHES! ROACHES

Very disappointed with the Budget Inn (Williamsburg). The business was very cluttered and pretty much falling apart.. I ended up having to leave after about an hour and a half of being there due to ROACHES.. I would not stay at this facility again if you paid me! It pretty much ruined our trip and we decided to throw in the towel and forget about our plans to go home.. Stay at your own risk! Filthy and something I would expect to find in a 3rd world country
