Beautifully decorated, clean and well kept! Loved the location, and close to everything we wanted! Restaurants are close by, but the Breakfast at Colonial Inn is AMAZING! Staff there work hard keeping everything filled so they don’t run out of anything! Delicious food and those glazed donuts … WOW!Breakfast selection was like a country club! Property was beautiful and I would return! Close to tunnel of trees which is one reason we were there!

The room was spacious and clean, and the grounds are so pretty and relaxing. The only problem was the baseboard heater was not working, and the overnight temperatures were in the low 40s. The staff brought a space heater and extra blankets, but it was hard to enjoy the room.

Nice breakfast provided. It is an older facility - kept up beautifully but the air conditioners are difficult to operate for seniors because they are low near the floor. Love the fresh cookies every day. Staff very welcoming. Nicely decorated.

All was good except for sandy floors and noise from people walking back and forth in room above. They probably heard our television which wasn't loud. Probably why the room was equipped with ear plugs because the location was super quiet. Beds wrre bery comfy and breakfast was diverse and delicious.
