“Creatures galore”

Super 8 Williamsburg/Pottery

29 Feb 2008

We've frequented the Super8 chain from Maine to Arizona, but this stay was the coup de grace.

We checked into the room, which was spartan, but liveable, and went to a sporting event at William & Mary. After the game, we grabbed a snack across the highway and returned to the room around 10:30pm.

A strange bug was flying around the room, which I tried to kill, but it flew up under the bed. When I got down to look, the box spring cover was completely ripped, and the insect had flown up under the bed.

While down on the floor, a roach scampered past my hand which I tried to kill, but it ran into the bathroom and out a quarter sized hole behind the toilet.

We hurriedly packed up, and went to the desk for a refund. The manager refused, and wanted to see the roach before giving us our money back. Of course, we'd left the lights on, and the creature was long gone by the time we returned, so we left without a refund.

I contacted the Super8 regional office a few days later, and their only recourse was to, you guessed it, contact the motel manager.

Stay away ... far away.

We paid the lowest price than other motel in the area. Only one time train passed but it wasn't the problem. Beds were comfortable and room was cleaned.

A train runs right behind the place,blowing the horn!
The walls are paper thin so any noise from outside or next door can be heard.
The continental breakfast is a jug of juice,a jug of milk,and a box of doughnuts,which must be eaten away from the tiny lobby.
The only elevator is up front,so you must walk the outside walkway down a narrow corridor to the room.
The fit and finish is shabby,the beds are rock hard,the furniture is worn and broken.
There are many motels nearby,stay at one of those!

“ABSOLUTELY AWFUL”

Super 8 Williamsburg/Pottery

23 Jun 2007
1/2 found this review helpful

I have nothing good to say about this place. It was as bad if not worse than most of the reviews I read. I booked it on hotwire so I didn't know the hotel before I booked it. We arrived and the first thing I notice was guests scooping ice out of a walmart type cooler to get ice for their room. The guest asked if they had any ice machines that worked and the attendant curt answer was NO, there all broke. I went to the room and it had a funny smell, the beds were made sloppy, the pillows were flat and the matrices were thin and uncomfortable. The room had no amenities, not even a coffee maker, The bathroom was dirty, and in disrepair. The tub creaked when you got into it and you could feel the rotten wood move underneath as you showered. The hot water ran out after one shower. Then there was the noise. It sounded like a cat house. I could hear everything going on in the surrounding rooms, and many of the guest sounded like they were partying and when when we finally drifted off to sleep we shot up several times throughout the night when it sounded like the train was coming through our room. It literally shakes the room and blows its horn as passing EVERY TIME. To add insult to injury, When we went down to get the complimentary breakfasts at 8 am it was all gone. I saw one guest get the last muffin, which is the only reason I new they had anything. The juice was gone as well, and the only thing they had left to offer was coffee. As I was checking out there was an elderly Gentleman trying to get his money back. He said he booked and prepaid his room on the internet but, he and his wife just couldn't stay there another night it was just too noisy he was saying. MY advise is STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AND HOTWIRE TAKE IT OFF YOUR LIST IT DOESN'T EVEN RATE A STAR.

“Nasty!”

Super 8 hotels are normally a good choice for budget travelers looking for a clean place to stay, but this hotel is just plain nasty! The carpets were badly stained, the room was dirty, and we spent most of our stay killing bugs. The TV didn't even have a remote. YUK!
