Rooms were nice, a little dated. Bathrooms could use an upgrade. Air conditioning kept turning off at night so it got stuffy quick in the room. Great location. Friendly staff.

The property was clean and well maintained with ample lighting. The main lobby was lovely as was the porch. Our room was perfect and quiet with a private balcony. Room was clean and smelled fresh. The bed and pillows were so comfy, too! I was able to enjoy a swim and dip in the hot tub…both were well maintained. Staff was absolutely lovely and personable with warm cookies an added bonus at check in time. Breakfast had something for all and coffee was decent. Would definitely stay again, property was close to downtown and right near marginal way.

Had a great two nights at the colonial inn with our three kids (11, 12 and 15). Great location, friendly staff, lovely little heated pool and hot tub. Breakfast was small but good quality. Room clean, comfortable and well appointed. Evening by the fire pit was a highlight.

Staff was wonderful and so helpful. It's in a great location to marginal Way, beach, downtown. Was very clean. One suggestion is to move the full length mirror cause the dresser was blocking it. Otherwise, no complaints.

Property was clean and the room was nice, bedding comfortable. However, there was nothing to hold onto inside the shower which felt dangerous when I bent down to pick up fallen soap. The breakfast was mediocre at best. Hot food wasn't replenished both mornings; no napkins of creamers; took ages to replace empty coffee canisters. Not what I expected at these room rates.
