I had a pleasant stay at the Griffin Hotel, enjoying its spacious rooms and the friendly staff who made me feel welcome. However, I did find the lack of certain amenities, like water bottles in the room, a bit disappointing. The proximity to Colonial Williamsburg was a great advantage, allowing me to explore the historical attractions easily. 🌳 Overall, it was a good experience, but a few enhancements would make it even better.

My stay at the Griffin Hotel was mostly enjoyable, with the friendly staff and the spacious room being standout features. The hotel's proximity to Colonial Williamsburg made exploring the area easy. However, I faced a hiccup with the check-in process being a bit delayed, and the lack of a microwave in the room was inconvenient when I wanted to heat my leftovers late at night.

My stay at the Griffin Hotel was filled with both enjoyable moments and some drawbacks. The staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel welcome, and I loved the spaciousness of my room.
