Everything was clean and tidy. However, the motel was worn out. The furniture was a mess; the "leather" chair was worn and the 'leather' finish worn off, so the chair itself was scratchy and uncomfortable. The bed was horrible; the springs could be felt and they made a horrible noise every time we shifted. This place is fine for a very limited stay.

The price was great! Loved the free parking and closeness to everything. Our tv did not work and the internet is slow. Not deal breakers though because I’m not a big tv person.

We would stay there again. The location was superb walking distance to many shops and the historical party of Gettysburg. It wasn't a for star hotel, but it was decent and as stated previously, we would stay there again.

When I checked in on a Monday to stay 4 nights at the Colton Motel in Gettysburg October 2025. I asked if I could stay and pay for the 5th night. She said as of right now they are booked up for that night. she said there might be one cancellation in the next day or two?. if there is I would get first dibs. Well there was a cancellation and I got to stay another night. The staff went out of there way to accommodate me. The room was very clean & user friendly. There was 3 very good sitdown or carryout restaurants and many attractions all within a block of the Motel, an easy walk. The next time I come to Gettysburg I will be staying at the Colton Motel.

The staff was very friendly and efficient with a quick and easy check-in. I have read many of the reviews. For the people complaining, I am uncertain what guests were expecting for such a reasonable rate right in the middle of the historical area. The accommodations were nice with a comfortable bed, nice shower, working refrigerator, simple breakfast, and nice TV. The pool was relaxing and the area was quiet enough for a good night's rest. We were able to take a nice walk to get into the center of town to enjoy history, food, and shopping. For a family on a budget, this place worked out just fine.

My kiddo enjoyed the pool a ton. I think my only two complaints were the bed being uncomfortable to my liking, and ants. All the recent rain had driven ants into the room. We had a good stay otherwise and would stay again.

Colton is good for the value

The location was great, staff was very courteous and friendly. The room was somewhat clean. The ligjt in the bathroom was filled with bugs, but the hot water was great. There is no breakfast , but for the price paid, who cares. We were only there to sleep and shower.

The pool had clean water and was refreshing. Our room was acceptable. We realized that our bathroom window(ground floor and big enough for a person to get through) had no working latch and was open slightly. Too late to report for office to be open. However, reported in am. Outside of it, lots of cigarette butts and little snippets of trash on ground. Not a clean environment. Provided some packaged muffins and good coffee in am. Felt safe here and walked to Crepe Cottage for breakfast.

This is a low quality motel, but one should not be surprised given the price and reviews. If you go in with the proper expectations, you shouldn't be too disappointed. The location can't be beat. In the evening we walked across the street to the spot where Lincoln gave his famous address as fireflies danced around us. In the morning we walked a block or so further and stood at the Angle and looked across the fields where Pickett's charge ended the battle (and countless lives). My children enjoyed the pool on a day that broke 100 degrees. They also enjoyed the ease to nearby eateries and ice cream shops. To repeat, though, the room was low quality: run down and minimally cleaned. It smelled of stale cigerettes (despite it's non smoking status). I’ve never complained about a mattress until today as these were like cardboard wrapped in crunchy plastic. The staff were kind and the other guests friendly. I would likely visit again if only here for an evening. I would just spend as little time possible in the room and ignore the ghost stories told by the passing tour guides.

I have stayed at the Colton Motel on several occasions. It is an older Motel, but they do keep it very clean, and everything works as it should. I feel safe there and you are able to walk to many attractions in Gettysburg along Steinwehr Ave. There are several dining options nearby, which make it an ideal place to stay.
