Not the smoothest check in. I will never stay at the Griffin again. Too many other places to stay that are much more straightforward.

Gem of a stay
The atmosphere was amazing, and the proximity to colonial Williamsburg was perfect. We even enjoyed drinks on the veranda by the fire. Our only complaint was how hot the room was.

Would not stay here again
You should be warned that there is no elevator. I was not prepared to carry my heavy suitcase up the stairs. There were no bathrobes in the room and no water either. My key did not work after coming back from dinner at 11pm at night and it was a dark cold walk to the inn to get another one.
