“The location is prime for exploring Colonial Williamsburg, and while some may find the building's exterior unassuming, the rooms themselves offer considerable space. Balconies are a plus, extending the living area, even if the furnishings lean toward antique. I found the proximity to historical sites a real advantage, making immersion in the area's past refreshingly easy.”
