Nice, clean, with fun retro vibe. Beds are very comfortable! Staff are friendly and check-in/check-out process was super easy. Very quiet and safe. Second time we’ve stayed there in the past month, and would definitely recommend!

Welcome back, Colony House!

As former visitors of the Colony House before our move to Roanoke, we were thrilled the motel was saved and renovated in a return to its former glory. We and some friends staycationed there this past week, and had a glorious time. The AGM greeted us warmly, made us feel welcome from the minute we entered the checkin. The lobby and lounge are beautiful and comfortable. We spent the afternoon by the refreshing pool. Our room was such a terrific throwback with its gorgeous Mid-Century Modern styling (while also reflecting modern conveniences). Every staff member we encountered this weekend was friendly and personable. We will gladly make this little escape many times more!

Loved it!

We loved our stay at the newly renovated motel. It was a nostalgic experience for us as we had stayed there as kids. Great food options in walking distance. The staff was friendly and helpful. We loved it!
