Looks and names can be deceiving. This hotel is anything but the description on the site or its name. A strange smell in the lobby and a dirty (sticky) elevator welcome you. There is a godawful noisy bar located on the ground floor that "entertains" every guest until way past midnight with loud music and sometimes even louder guests. Not... More

The reception was all smiles! She had us park our bike right in front and gave us a special parking permit to do so. Brand new carpet and paint. The room was very clean. The furniture is worn. They should replace the beds next. Excellent location too! Right across from the Raven Restaurant! Which is biker friendly too! Listen. You... More

When you approach the hotel it looks pretty good from the outside until you step into the lobby and all you can say is wow what a dump. We were supposed to stay 4 nights, but only stayed one, room was clean enough but the hotel is very old and needs some renovations to bring it up to the 21st... More

We arrived at the hotel at 8pm friday night; the clerk at the desk never "GREETED" me..So I said hello, I have a reservation for... More

I booked here due to a wedding. It was the weekend of the Shamrock Marathon, so hotels were booked nearly solid. We arrived a little early, and were allowed to check in. The lady at the front desk was all business, and not much about fluff. Parking is a little ways from the hotel itself ( Across the street and... More

I don't mind the noise from the patio bar downstairs. The calypso is fun ,food and music were good. The hotel, not so much. No coffee maker. Front desk closed at 9pm, so anyone from the street, the beach or the bar can wander around. No security. Terrible parking. Some things appeared to have been renovated. Most things have not.... More

Let me start with the positive. Location is excellent! Oceanfront. All rooms do in fact have a balcony and nice view of the ocean. Room was clean enough. Negatives: It should be made very clear that this hotel is attached to a bar/grill that has live music that plays late. This is not a place to stay if you have... More

Let my start by saying we used Hotwire to book this so we got the room for only $85 a night (they were asking $200). We came down to VA Beach for a half marathon and were just looking for a place to crash close to the course. Most places were sold out so this is what we got. The... More
