My wife and I stayed in a room that bedbugs. She has bites all over her body and we had to go urgent care once we arrived home. I found 1 under my pillow the morning were to check out also. We reported this as we were checking out and have not heard back from The Colonies at Williamsburg. We are disappointed and just happy that our grand kids were not affected as they were in a different room.

The front desk staff is terrible. After being sent a text our room was ready at 4. When we get there at 7 we are told they aren’t sure they have a room ready. Then at check out they sent texts the day before. 2 hours before and let us know if we aren’t checked out or if there is excessive cleaning that needs done we will be charged. It very much felt unwelcoming.

The indoor heated pool, good for a winter stay for a family trip. The two bedroom apartment style was nice. Master bedroom with the attached bathroom was nice. Nice spacious walk in shower. Abd having a full kitchen a stacked washer and dryer and fire place was a nice touch. Hotel staff was also nice and accommodating.
