“The Capt. John Smith Inn presents a budget option in Williamsburg, but be aware that some areas show wear and tear. While affordable, I think managing expectations about the overall experience is key. Consider it a no-frills base for exploring the area, keeping in mind that cleanliness and maintenance appear inconsistent.”
