Had a great two nights at the colonial inn with our three kids (11, 12 and 15). Great location, friendly staff, lovely little heated pool and hot tub. Breakfast was small but good quality. Room clean, comfortable and well appointed. Evening by the fire pit was a highlight.

Staff was wonderful and so helpful. It's in a great location to marginal Way, beach, downtown. Was very clean. One suggestion is to move the full length mirror cause the dresser was blocking it. Otherwise, no complaints.

Property was clean and the room was nice, bedding comfortable. However, there was nothing to hold onto inside the shower which felt dangerous when I bent down to pick up fallen soap. The breakfast was mediocre at best. Hot food wasn't replenished both mornings; no napkins of creamers; took ages to replace empty coffee canisters. Not what I expected at these room rates.
