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.

Basic hotel worth considering

1 night stay on a quick trip through Norfolk. Hotel was clean, and staff was nice and professional. Our room (325) was huge. The beds were comfortable. We didn’t eat breakfast there but did look. All carb-laden and quick stuff…fruit, cereal, bagels, muffins. Overall a good stay and we would return if we were in the area again.

Ice machine location

Ok. But, since they only had one ice machine on the 2nd floor, signs posted would have been nice indicating that. I was on third floor, no machine after walking entire corridor, elevator to first floor, was told ice was on the second floor. Elevator to second floor, got ice, elevator back to third floor. Also, it was raining when I arrived. NO access to front door due to design. Park on sides . Room and beds were nice and comfortable. Would stay again if and when in area.
