"25 years going to Colonial!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
I have been going to the Colonial for at least 25 years. The staff is welcoming and the rooms are spacious. Now I bring a grandson who loves the hot tub and pool (one way to keep the rug rats busy and expend energy)!

"Wrong date booked by Expedia."
Overall Score4.0/ 5
I never stayed at hotel as Expedia reservation person did not book the correct date I requested which was a room within a block of rooms for a wedding 6/15 6/16! NOT 6/16 6/17! The phone number for booking a reservation on Colonial website was not the hotel phone number but instead went to reservation person who, when I requested to speak with hotel staff, this person said “ Colonial hotel phones are answered by us so u can make reservation now”. Terrible experience! To find out I did not have a room for the wedding night was terrible!

"Comfortable, convenient and quiet."
Overall Score5.0/ 5
We were in the area for a graduation. The hotel property is meticulously maintained. The rooms were comfortable, accommodating and the hotel was quiet. The amenities are good, and the ample parking lot made it easy not only to park, but served as a good walking space to get some exercise in. Enjoyed the quick stay and would stay here again.
