I do realize that the Colonial Hotel has been around for a long time, so I think the floors need to be updated. Very noisy while walking and the floor in our room, it seemed as though the plywood under the carpet was not attached. Otherwise, it was a very nice stay.

This was an excellent few days. My only complaint would be on days the restaurant is closed and at other times of the day before it opens, the only coffee available is make it yourself stuff in your room that only has the powdered cream. If coffee was available in the lobby it would be a BIG plus.

We did have issues with our shower, we did not report until our last night. The front desk was very receptive to our complaint. We have stayed here before and love the hotel. First time we ate in the restaurant, the food and service were amazing, will certainly eat there more next time we stay!!

Hotel was very nice. Love the remoteness and the ambiance. The only thing I hated was the mattress. It was lumpy & hard and should be replaced ASAP.
