Bring your own kitchen utensils.

It was okay. There isn't a lot of options around Cape Charles. We had a dog so wanted a suite so we could eat in. However, there were no kitchen utensils, no pots, no bowls. I wasn't expecting that so I had to pick up disposable plates, bowls, utensils from Food Lion (not eco-friendly) and then buy a pot from the smelliest Dollar General ever. The rooms are big but not a lot of lights or chairs.

The room was comfy and worth the extra price for a kitchenette. The manager was very friendly and suggested AJ’s in Cape Charles for dinner. Excellent suggestion.

We liked the location and the size of the room. Kitchen was large but had few supplies if you were staying there any length of time. We were assigned first to a room where the heater wasn't working. The reftugeratie had rust.When we told the woman that the heat wasn't working, she did immediately change us to another room and the heat was fine. Close to town and grocery. Would stay again
