When you book into the Colonial Houses, know what you are getting into. The buildings are lovely, but old. The rooms are not plush. The bathrooms are small. We were the only people in an entire building with many bedrooms, yet we were placed on the second floor. Why? You can’t beat the location, and Williamsburg is so lovely, but there are more comfortable rooms available.

Overall disappointed...especially by the LOUD vent
The pros- cool experience to stay in a colonial home, right in the colonial area. The main con- it was early January, and when I turned the heat on, the vent in the ceiling made a LOUD roaring sound, like a box fan on high. But even worse, it would then randomly fluctuation to a low whir, then to silence, then a whir, then a ROAR, then silence, then a ROAR, then a whir.... Since it was random, you could NOT get used to it. Just to sleep, we turned the heat OFF. Around 10 pm I called housekeeping and the man basically said, "it's an old system... nothing we can do." With a blanket it was ok, but had it been bitter cold outside, we would have had to choose between sleep or freezing!
