Read several reviews before I booked and there was about the same for bad and good. Wanted to try a new place outside of va beach because I’m just here for work. Front looked decent ish. Got to the window to check in and the lady was very nice. Pulled around back and it was another world. Got into my room
And just plain terrible. The mold and paint peeling, nasty sticky carpet, 80’s bedding, gross bathroom. I was tired and figured I’d lay on the bed clothed not even taking off my shoes and at least get some sleep. Didn’t feel like taking a shower at that point was a good idea. Fell asleep to be woken up at 12am to no power. Called it then, got my stuff and tried to sleep in my truck the rest of the night. Absolutely no go, I would not bring my family to a place like this none the less let my dog be in this place. Definitely do not stay here, I don’t know how places like this don’t get shut down.
2nd to the worst place I ever stayed! Sheets were dirty , bathroom nasty, room decor gross. The man who brought sheets was very very old and only brought 1 sheet and got disgusted with me when I daid I wanted all linan changed. Did not have continental breakfast. Ice machine broken. The grounds were dirty.

Good value
Clean. Needs renovation. Ice machine not working. Door difficult to open and close. Bed very comfortable. Had handicap bars in bathtub. Handicap toilet seat. Mini fridge. Mini microwave. Quiet. Very nice and helpful desk attendant. Helped me to my room and assisted with door. I would stay again. Price right with condition of room. Nice tv with cable.
I never have left a review before, but this place was the worst place ive ever been at. I was afraid to touch everything. Mold, broken pieces, Spider webs, odor. Hair still in tub and shower. No fan in bathroom, AC barely cooled room. Musty, dusty, disgusting. No amenities other than a refrigerator and microwave which fuctioned moderately.
