I had stayed here before when it was a Hampton Inn and it was a nice, clean, quiet location. This stay was horrible. While the front desk staff were all very pleasant, the place looked (and smelled) old and tired. The pool area was unclean and the water slimy. No towels for a day after the old were removed but they ran out of clean ones. They ran out of food one morning. Had to try a couple of door keys after the second night to find one that would work. I was told they had just signed a deal to become a Best Western in the fall. Until alot of money is pumped into renovating and refurbishing this place and upgrading the amenities..find a different place to stay.

Room quality and cleanliness was more than satisfactory. There was a too-sweet chemical cleaning smell in most of the hallways, but not in the rooms, which was certainly a plus. The bathroom was all working, with plenty of hot water, and very clean. No mildew, or moldy smell.

The complimentary breakfast was light, but not bad. If you are content with bagels, muffins, cereal and french toast sticks, you are in luck. They had very limited fruit, and no breakfast meats or eggs, but I never left hungry.

The surrounding area was safe. Within easy walking distance are an Uno's Chicago restaurant, mini-golf, and Dairy Queen. Directly across the street is a Hooter's and Cracker Barrel. Within 5 minutes by car is a Food Lion, CVS and Walgreens as well as an assortment of other restaurants down Bypass road.

Busch Gardens, Water country USA and Colonial Williamsburg are also within quick driving range, with road signs for directions.

The only issue I had was that my room key did not work at first, and I had to go back downstairs to have the attendant re-swipe it. Which took about 4 and a half minutes from start to finish...not a big deal.

For the money I was really impressed. The staff and rooms were great. The pool was okay, but for the money you really can't beat this hotel.

My girlfriend and I Stayed at the Waller Mill from July 23 to July 26 2007. This is a two star hotel but it was similar to many three star hotels I have stayed in. The Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. We arrived two hours earlier than the four o'clock check in time but we were allowed to have our room at that time. The room was clean and neat with a small refridgerator, coffee pot, hair dryer, iron and ironing board, wireless internet and cable T.V. The continental breakfast was about what I expected. Not fancy, but everything you needed to get a nice breakfast and start your day. The hotel is less than a mile from The Willimasburg Visitor Center. They don'y have a resturant but there is an Uno's right across the parking lot. There is also a K-mart across the street. The only con's to the hotel is noise in the hallway carries into the room. This was really not a big deal since the guest are mostly families and no one was running in and out late. The other con was they had someone in the front lobby who seemed to be there to help with tourist information but was really trying to sell you a time share for a new resort. Not that he was pushy but I thought it was annoying to ask for directions to Williamsburg and find out I am talking to a sales person. I prepaid the hotel and when we checked out I gave back my key my room number and that was it. No hidden charges, no fuss. My girlfriend and I had a great time.
