Don’t fall for a false upgrade!! It doesn’t exist!

The hotel is more of a motel, which is fine. It does the job of providing a comfortable bed in a nice cool environment. The pool was nice and clean, but there is NO shade!!! The umbrellas are all broken so it’s very hot!!!! The bed frame was very loud because it was made out of metal, not really an issue. The room was nice and cold especially after coming back from a very hot Virginia Beach day in the sun. The bathroom was clean but the toilet had no flush power. Had to improvise by throwing extra water in there while flushing so it would go down. Housekeeping never came, I asked for a change in towels after day 2 but they never came, like if they didn’t get the memo. We had to grab them while they were walking in front of our room to have them switch them out. MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT is not with the hotel itself, but the hotels.com website that allows you to pay for an upgrade that DOES NOT exist. DO NOT fall for this scam. The standard room rate is either for a King or two doubles. They offered me an option that was for two queen beds instead of doubles at a higher rate which I paid and when I checked into the hotel they told me that they don’t even have that as an option in their hotel. So I ended up in the standard double/double room even though I paid extra to stay in a queen/queen room. My friend and I both booked the same hotel on the same days but I paid more for the same exact thing she got because of the false upgrade hotels.com offers

The check in staff was not polite. He was doing his job as if someone forced him to do that job. The amount was fully paid in advance as non refundable. He reserved another card for no reason. I am sure not returning to this facility again.

I did not stay even though I booked it for two days. The pricing is not appropriate for the ambience it provides. I probably will not get any credit even I I paid for two nights. I will avoid this hotel in the future.

This was a last minute decision and the only place that wasn’t sold out on a holiday weekend. I’ll start with the cons There’s so much potential for this place. It is in a great location just across the street from the beach. They need a better cleaning staff. Upon arrival there were random hairs on the toilet. The end tables are peeling. We stayed 2 nights and no one cleaned the room on the 2nd day. The sink drains extremely slow. The AC looks like someone was chewing on it, worked surprisingly well. The AC works so well we were freezing the first night. We requested an additional blanket through their text message app which we never received. Shower curtain had mold on the bottom. The breakfast is not a breakfast it’s more like snacks. The tv volume had to be at max in order to hear it. The good: Location Parking was easy

Rude staff, no place to hang your wet clothes, refusal to provide enough towels for guests to shower. Screaming like a maniac about hanging wet laundry on the banister outside. Horribly small parking lot. The literal only good thing about this property is it’s a 45 second walk to the beach.

Good location, walk across the street to the beach. The provided breakfast is a joke, it's snacks and coffee. The towels were stained, no hand soap for sink, some shower supplies were empty upon arrival, the bathroom light flickered with a sketchy caulked outlet. Fortunately we were only using the room for snacking and sleeping.

Would not recommend this place

We were disappointed with the room. Gentleman at desk walked us to our room so he could spray deodorizer before we entered. Shower curtain had mold on it & floors were so dirty our feet were black. Husband had to locate housekeeping so we could get more towels (there was only 1 bath towel, 2 hand towels, 2 washcloths). Office was locked on several occasions that you were unable to get a cup of coffee. After talking to other visitors they all had the same complaints

Beware, Rude and disrespectful staff

The front office staff of this hotel is very rude and not very accommodating. The property itself is clean enough for what it is. Don’t expect anything over the top. As for the staff…housekeeping and maintenance were great. I’d give them 5 stars. The front office staff, not so much. I am a disabled veteran with a service dog. They demanded to see his paperwork. Look at the ADA.gov website…you cannot demand paperwork. He was in a vest, clearly labeled Service Dog. He was working and sitting calming by my side through all of the drama at the front desk…worse case, my wife and her friend were the ones staying here. My son and the dog were camping a few miles away. One of the evenings my wife was there, we witnessed the front staff in a verbal argument with another guest in the parking lot. Yelling and screaming, almost going to blows. Unprofessional, disrespectful and downright rude. Regardless, no one from my family will be staying here again, ever.
