Right from the start, the front desk lady was very rude and shirt with us, despite only friendly questions being asked. A few days after our stay, our bank statement reflected an unexplained extra charge. We called, and they stated that we were charged an extra fee because the cleaning lady "found ashes in the sink". We do not smoke!... More

I travel a lot for business and pleasure. This motel is average and average is not bad. To me the most important is being clean and the room was clean. There was no coffee pot in the room and they still have old box TV. For breakfast the offerings were quite slim.

Stayed for a weekend for a family event. staff was polite and rooms were large and clean! New tv was in room. In our king sized bed there were 3 pillows and one in the dresser drawer. We requested one more due to a bad back but was told they did not have extras. A very very basic breakfast is... More

We recently stayed at this hotel during Orange City's Tulip Festival. We are an older couple so we appreciate the family business aspect of the Dutch Colony Inn.

The staff accommodated a couple special requests quite cordially, and went out of their way to make me feel welcome. The owner was a sweetheart, you can tell they love what they do, and they do it with... More

I've spent many nights at the Dutch Colony traveling for business. I regularly travel all over the U.S. and I must say that I enjoy staying at the Dutch Colony better than anywhere else. Why? Because this motel is exceptionally clean, well managed, and very friendly. They go out of their way to accomodate any requests. In the past I've... More

I work in Oklahoma and travel to Orange City quite regularly and have over the past 5 years. Ever time I am there I have seen work being done to the hotel. Updating of carpet and paint and furniture. Is it the biggest, most known hotel out there, heck no, but there is alot of pride that is shown in... More
