Next time, Iâll be staying at another one of the official Williamsburg hotels.
I was genuinely looking forward to this stay, but the experience fell short. The location is good, and the price was fair, but thatâs where the positives ended.
The hotel is worn and outdated. The mattresses were worn out, some hallway lights didnât work or flickered, and even simple featuresâlike sleep timers on the TVsâwere missing the clock was not set and 1 roll of toilet paper was in the room. The common areas were also uncomfortably warm. Staff blamed the heat, but based on other reviews, this seems to be a recurring issue.
The biggest problem was the noise. From 11 PM until after 3 AM, there were people running through the halls, loud music from nearby rooms, and constant door slamming. I called the front desk around 1:30 AM to ask for help. I was told, âThe hotel is at capacity,â as if that excused the lack of action. Nothing changed, and I barely slept.
I understand guests want to enjoy themselves, but not at the expense of others. A good nightâs rest should be a basic part of any hotel stay.
If youâre considering staying in the area, do yourself a favor and choose one of the other official hotels. If itâs available, the Williamsburg Innâthough more expensiveâis a far superior experience and well worth the upgrade I wont I won't make the mistake of not staying there again.
