It’s basically just a room, zero amenities. Talk about a noisy hotel! We were woken up so many times throughout the night by people yelling, running, fighting, slamming the exit door, just awful. I also alerted the front desk that the rear door did not lock and this was a safety issue but it was never remedied. The room was large and clean other than some mold on the bottom of my shower curtain they missed and the conditioner being empty, I can live with those issues as long as there are no bugs.

The stay was short but good. Service would have been an excellent if it had not been for the lady working the front desk for morning check out, the young lady who checked us in was very nice and professional but I had 2 encounters with the one lady that was rude the first time was before my initial checkin ;we arrived early due to driving all night so we stopped in to make sure we were at the correct hotel and check our reservation she didn’t let me ask anything she just rudely said you can’t check in now and I proceeded to tell her I just want to confirm my reservation she said check in is 4 come back then but when we came back to check in thankfully there was a nice young lady to check us in and tell us a little about Norfolk since we had never been there so other than that we had a great stay waiting on our cruise

I was sorely disappointed to learn that despite the claim on the website, a shuttle to the airport was not, in fact, available. I was also disappointed to learn that there was no designated area to exercise. Both of these facts will prevent me from booking here in the future.

Can’t wait to stay again!

If I could have snuck the mattress out and into my car, I would’ve. It was that comfortable. The staff were super friendly and helpful, especially the young woman who was on the late evening shift. The breakfast is “continental”, but there were still plenty of options. There is a coffee station in the lobby, available 24/7. The room was immaculate, and the shower/tub combo was pristine. We’re already making plans to stay again. The only 2 negatives are that because they aren’t on the main street of town, there aren’t many food options. But, there are plenty one block over. The other thing is that you can’t turn left into the property-NOT THEIR FAULT. You just have to make a u-turn just a few buildings down. And you can’t beat the price!

ALL STAFF WERE VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. FACILITY WAS VERY CLEAN, NEW, AND BRIGHT. CONSIDERING THE LOW PRICE OF THE ROOM, THE COMPLIMENTARY CONTINENTAL STYLE BRKFST AND COFFEE (SEEMINGLY ON TAP 24/7!) WAS GREAT. THERE WERE MULTIPLE RESTAURANTS IN WALKING DISTANCE AND A GROCERY STORE. I WAS TAKING CLASSES AT LITTLE CREEK NAVAL BASE. IF I AM BACK IN TOWN AGAIN IN THIS AREA I WOULD DEFINTIELY STAY HERE AGAIN. IT IS ALSO A REASONABLE DISTANCE FROM BEACH ACCESS LOCATIONS.
