It's so low-key. I didn't know there was a hotel here for so many years... You have to take the stairs to the second floor to reach your room. The bed in the room is not queen size, but full size which is slightly smaller than queen size... There are not enough sockets at the bedside. Coffee, yogurt, milk, eggs, etc. in the public area can be picked up 24 hours a day. All other services are still available. The location is very good, suitable for tourists without a car. It is walking distance from the College of William and Mary and Colonial Williamsburg, but overall combined with the price, I think it is not worth it.

This is probably the best location of any accommodation you can find in Williamsburg. Colonial Williamsburg is a short walk away as well as plenty of shops and restaurants. The room was nicely decorated. The bed was ok, not as comfortable as my bed at home, but everyone has their own preferences. Breakfast was good and the owners are knowledgeable of the area.

If you are visiting Colonial Williamsburg, why would you stay far away and have to drive (or be driven) in? Maybe you like large chain hotels. Anyway, this historic Inn is so wonderful and right in the MIDDLE of all the action! We stayed during the July 4th events and really loved having a place to rest and regroup right close by. The room was really nice, very comfortable. The breakfast room was perfect for us, the offerings were nice and we grabbed some late night snacks also! The only downside is trying to find the parking .From the description, I thought it was on the street but it is in a small parking lot behind the Barkery pub.

I cannot say enough about the Fife and Drum! Our room was spotless, comfortable and filled with so much history we enjoyed looking at and reading, the whole place was fun to walk around and read! The shower was incredible, thankfully because it was so hot every day. The continental breakfast was perfect for us. If you want a big breakfast, there a plenty of places near by. Probably my favorite part was the small rooftop patio. They have wineglass for use, so we bought a local bottle of wine and enjoyed it comfortably in the evening. We walked everywhere, never needing our car, it was perfectly located. We will definitely stay again if we make it back to the area, hopefully with all our children

This is a fantastic location for visiting Colonial Williamsburg or William & Mary. Everything is in easy walking distance. It is a lovely location, and very convenient to the college as well as the restored area. The free parking is a plus, considering the scarcity of free (or any) parking so close to the restored area, especially in the summer and during special events. The accommodations are well appointed, and had everything we needed. The staff was pleasant and accommodating. The breakfast is described as "continental," but it had more than we expected: hard boiled eggs, oatmeal, yogurt, muffin tops & toast, coffee, tea, orange juice, both dairy and non-dairy creamers, applesauce. There were also cookies, chips, and bottled water for anytime during the day. We absolutely recommend this place, and plan to return.

I would stay here again and again to try all the rooms. We had the Yorktown room. It was a surprise for my wife who loves authentic places. It was small but it was enough for my wife me and our 12 yo son. I loved the bathroom and shower. Hidden behind closet doors the shower was solid, large and plenty of hot water. The host was amazing. The front door is behind the outdoor tables and could be hard to find. A door between two stores. Unload next to patio and the reserve parking was across the street. The wife loved the hidden patio

Wonderful stay! Room was so cute and comfortable. We had the Restoration room and it was nice to have two separate sleeping areas. The continental breakfast was very convenient and the location of this B&B could not be more perfect along with the parking. The hosts were very accommodating and helpful. I highly recommend staying her next time you are in Williamsburg..
