My stay at the Griffin Hotel was a mixed bag. The location was fantastic for exploring Colonial Williamsburg, and I appreciated the spacious room with a nice balcony. However, the breakfast options were quite disappointing, just basic snack foods, and the maintenance of the room left much to be desired, like a clogged toilet and lack of cleaning service on the first day.
Rooms

The rooms were quite large, with plenty of space for my mobility scooter. However, I noticed a musty smell, and there was quite a bit of dust around, making it feel less clean than it should have been. The bed and pillows were comfortable, though.
Service

While the staff was quick to respond to my requests, it did feel like my needs were secondary to those of the Williamsburg Inn guests. I was surprised by how the cleaning service seemed to overlook my room initially.

The breakfast was pretty disappointing. I expected something more substantial, but it was just small packets of oatmeal and snack bars. It felt more like a frontier-style breakfast than what I would hope for at a hotel.
