Colonial Court Motor Inn

Colonial Court Motor Inn

8/10 Good
"As with a lot of older motels we have stayed in, the owners seem to be unable to keep up with the maintenance around the place. Room very clean and comfortable. Bed comfortable and pillows good with spares. Very quiet, next to the river."
