Our initial room wasn’t cleaned however, the lady at the desk because of the inconvenience gave us the biggest room on the property so thank you
Good points: room recently refurbished with new carpet and paint. New mattress was just right. Great ice machine! Outside currently being repainted.
Curtains need to be replaced; needs a few more clothes hooks in the bathroom, and also a small table or fold-up luggage rack. But as a budget-priced motel in a prime location, it served my purpose. I do wish people would not smoke or gather outside of rooms...needs a designated outdoor smoke area. They are preparing the pool for the season. A microwave in the room would be great. Delightful staff.
This was not our first stay at the Colton. We love coming here because the people are so friendly. The rooms are clean, rates are reasonable and the location is unbeatable.
Great staff, but outdated. It worked for just sleeping there though.

Vintage Motel Provides Value and Comfort
My first time at this property, chosen for location and economy. Exteriorbwas very nice for this "vintage motel." Mattress was perfect for me...firm! Room was spacious and quiet. Parking surpasses its "sister property" so it's likely I'll stay there again. A good coat of paint and overall room refresh would be good. Also, a microwave would make it perfect!
Great price. Rooms need updating and bring your own pillow ! Pillows are flat. Great location to walk around Gettysburg. I would definitely stay there again.
Smoke detector non existent. Smelled of smoke. Window screens didn’t work. Furniture was damaged. No breakfast. Carpet was filthy. Bedsheets were filthy. Never again would I stay here!!
