The roaches wear white gloves, serve fresh garden Gespacho, and double as effective security between the hours of 1 am thru 4:30 am Recommended 100%

Front desk staff was very friendly and made recommendations for places to eat and visit Close within walking distance to boardwalk and accessible to transit yet away from hustle and bustle.

The staff is amazing! Only reason I stay here. They do what they can with what they’re given. The owners do not take pride in their property.

Cheap place close to the beach. They do NOT clean the rooms, make the bed, provide clean towels every day. Have to track down person from office for anything. Loud people constantly. No hangers/rod for clothes. No wastebasket!

The staff is very nice and the motel is in a safe location, however, you need to be okay with the lack of room cleanliness. The bed sheets and such were definitely clean, just lack of floor/kitchenette/bathroom were not the best.

I’m not one to care about the venues I stay in, but this was the first time I wasn’t pleased. The photos on the web look nicer than the room I was in. The closet didn’t have a bar to hang my clothes. The towels looked old. Maybe the venue needs a facelift. It was conveniently close to the beach so that was a plus. I will say that I’m not disappointed with service. It did its job at the end of the day. A place to set my things, shower, and sleep. Definitely not a place to bring a partner or family. Didn’t hate it but didn’t love it. Lesson learned.. hotels might be the best option for me going forward.

The room was not clean both beds had stains of paint the bathroom also had stains mostly mold in greater areas of all corners. The lighting was not ideal at all while lamps didn’t have outlets to plug into but were just siting there and they were dirty with vandalism on them too.

For the location it was great. If your looking for luxury, look someplace else. The room was dirty. We had leaking pipes. Tv didnt work. No internet. Locals had ex coming to rooms fighting early in the morning.

reserved a non-smoking room with a king size bed and we were checked into a smoking room with two double beds. The room was dirty and smelled of smoke. A used condom wrapper was on the floor beside the bed. When I tied to opened the freezer, the microwave fell off of the top of the freezer and I was lucky to catch it. The shower was dirty, the mirror was smeared, the bed sheets looked dirty, and the curtain had a rip in it that people could look through.

Convenient location especially for the price. Very nice surrounding neighborhood and easy to walk everywhere. No cleanliness at all...First room i was given the shower continously ran, not dripped but running and there was visable mold on the shower curtian and wall from it. The desk was more.than accommodating in changing rooms however the second room had trash in room cabinets, used shampoo bottle and hair left in shower, pretty sure one of the towels had already been used.

My partner and i stayed here during our trip to virginia beach. I feel like you could find something within this price range that’s better. The hotel definitely was not deep cleaned and there was no housekeeping. Towels were dirty upon arrival, bathroom had mold/sand everywhere, there was sticky dirt on the handles of the dressers, it had a foul smell for it being a non-smoking room and most importantly roaches. The only good thing was the staff because of how respectful and accommodating they are. I just want to be transparent in case anybody was looking to stay here because it’s honestly not the best idea. I unfortunately will not be recommending or staying here again.

There was a change to my travel dates, so I had to book an emergency day at the last minute. The parking lot was a huge red flag, people arguing and what looked like drug deals, but it got worse. The lobby was unattended and things in disarray. When the receptionist finally came in grom outside she was less than friendly. After I told her I had a reservation she informed me "I had a balance" . Apparently, it's a resort fee. This is NOT a resort, but whatever. I paid. Upon entering the room the smell was pronounced. The linens on the bed were disgustingly dirty. The bathroom didn't look like it had been cleaned and the fixtures are beyond old and unkept. The curtain was coming off the rod, the carpet was filthy. We immediately went and turned the keys into the door slot and left. I understand this is an extreme budget motel but I couldn't stay there. Unacceptably dirty, the environment is dangerous and the employee is rude. We ended up sleeping in the car.
