My husband and I did not want to spend a King's ransom for a place we'd spend very little time in except to sleep... so the comforts of home are not necessary. Our concerns were if it was clean, bed/pillows comfy, spotless bathroom, and a working tv, phone and lamps.... and our answers were YES to all. The motel is affordable AND in the ...

NEVER
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/30/09
The first encounter I had was with the man at the front desk. We arrived at the motel at 2:15 PM because I had been told the day before that we could check in at 1 PM when I called to confirm our reservations. He literally threw a piece of paper at me that said check-in was at 3 PM....We exchangd words and at that point I should have just walked ...
My husband and son and I have been staying at this motel for a long long time about 10 years and this by far was the worst year ever. And I can guarantee the last time we will stay there. First they put us in the upstairs room which would have been ok but the steps going up are narrow and steep and rotting and falling apart, then the deck and walk ...
We recently visited Gettysburg and checked into the Colton Motel based on some positive ratings we viewed here that this was a no frills motel but budget priced. I had sticker shock when we checked in however because the room was $ 90+ dollars with taxes. Grant it we didn't have reservations or any discount/group rate- that was just the walk in ...

It's too overpriced for the quality.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/26/09
What we paid for the rooms were way too overpriced. The bedding smelled of cigarettes, the room above the pool was not safe for anyone to stay in, the deck had loose floor boards,the steps and railing were falling apart, there bees hovering around the stairs preventing anyone from using them, and in the winter it was very icy and dangerous going up and down the stairs.
WELL THE MOTEL WAS GRAET AND WAS A LOT CLEANER THEN WHAT EVERYBODY HAS SAID. THE CHEAPEST PLACE AROUND AND IN WALKING DISTANCE TO ALL THE ATTRACTIONS THAT GETTYSBURG HAS. PARKING COULD BE BETTER BUT IT WAS NOT A PROBLUM WHEN YOU ARE IN WALKING DISTANCE OF ALMOST EVERYTHING AROUND. YOU CAN EVEN GET THE TICKETS FOR EVERYTHING RIGHT AT THE ROOM AND A ...

Bates Motel!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/09/09
This was the most disgusting motel room I have ever stayed in! It was VERY dirty & very old! The bathroom was frightening! It may be cheap, but you would be better off sleeping in your car.
I had read reviews on the internet and that coupled with the fact that it was AAA approved we chose to stay there. We checked out after one nite and went somewhere else. Very dirty. Bed cloths were very stained, floors dirty and the bathroom window was broken. When we turned on the air conditioner debris flew out everywhere. Not pleased at all. It was very dirty.
