Categories

Cleanliness
2.5
Strongly negative: multiple reports of exterior and interior dirt, moldy smell, black mold or stains in bathroom, stained/dirty furniture and mattresses, and roach presence.
Service
8.5
Mixed-to-positive: front desk/staff noted as very nice in at least one review and some responsive actions were attempted; isolated reports of rudeness and lack of follow-through lower confidence but overall service sentiment is better than physical condition.
Location
9.5
Consistently positive: several mentions of convenient location, proximity to store and bus stop, and close to job — location is a clear strength.
Room Quality
3.5
Below average: multiple reports of roaches, musty smells, leaking sinks, peeling paint, stained bedding, and uncomfortable/old furniture; a few mentions of comfortable bed and good room size temper the score slightly.
Amenities
4
Below target: pool was closed, no weekend housekeeping, limited reliable amenities though rooms had fridge/microwave and a TV; overall amenities under-deliver.
Value for Money
6
Slightly above target: guests note 'you get what you pay for' — some value given the low price and location, but cleanliness and safety issues reduce perceived value.
Food and Beverage
3
Negative: breakfast service described as non-existent or poor in multiple reviews despite occasional mentions of breakfast.
Overall Experience
6.2
Mixed: overall stays are marred by cleanliness, pest and safety concerns, and limited amenities, but good location, some comfortable room features, and friendly staff improve the overall impression for some guests.

Very old and dirty
Pros:

The location

Cons:

The facility was dirty on the outside of the building and in the staircase. They had old dirty mattresses stacked up in the back of the building. When we opened the door to the room a bad smell hit us. It smelled like mold. The love seat was very old and dirty with stains on it. The bathroom had black mold or black stains on the wall and dirt on the baseboards. There was rust where the shower curtain connected to the wall.

Pros:

There wasn't much I liked here, but you get what you pay for so we did not have high expectations.

Cons:

The cockroach in our room, the cigarette burns and mystery stains on the comforter, the uncomfortable bed, there was trash and boxes everywhere and the "breakfast provided" did not exist.

Wonderful Williamsburg Lodge
Pros:

I like the comfortable bed, and the room size, the big flat screen TV, Wi-Fi connection, the room temperature, the refrigerator size and microwave, plus the location is closer to my new job.

Cons:

The bathroom is a tight space with just a full shower with bathtub and a toilet. The bathroom sink is next to it, on the other side of the door in a small open space, which has an open closet type rack to hang up your clothes.
