1st off.. The staff allowed us to check in early at NO extra cost, That was HUGE!! Considering the hotel we stayed at the 1st night would not let us check in untill 3:00 in the NOSE, without wanting to charge extra!!!! We were greeted by a very friendly, professional young lady that spoke english, and the rates were INCREDIBLE... More

We stayed at the Diplomat June 17th- 21st. I done my fair share of research and was iffy about checking out the Diplomat due to some of the bad reviews here. We arrived at the motel and before we checked in, was allowed in to inspect the room. It seems to be an older motel but everything seemed clean. We... More

On a whim we ended up at Virginia Beach at 2am in the morning, cheapest room available. Not the fanciest place in town but it was clean and quiet and out my sliding door was the beach. Who cares that it had a crappy tv I was at the beach to be on the beach not inside watching TV. Saw... More

As a last minute idea, my husband and I decided to stay on the beach. The only hotel with rooms available was the diplomat. I know why based on the way it looked on the outside. There was a strange sign about drugs as soon as you walk in. That didn't make me comfortable. View was excellent. The tv was... More

October 8th, 2011. I took my family to VA Beach for a weekend vacation. We left without making a hotel reservation and didnt know there was a soccer tournament going. So the hotels were booked and the only oceanfront hotel that had a room available was this DIPLOMAT INN. I had my dog with me and so I was told... More

My husband & I have stayed here for the last 6 years for Memorial Day weekend. The hotel itself is continuing to fall apart here & there. Not much renovation if any since we started staying here. Some general notes: 1. Parking is tight. They have 25 spaces for 35 rooms. If the lot is full, the front desk will... More

My husband and I just got home from Va beach. We stayed at the diplomat and it was horrible. First, the parking is ridiulous and we had to go across the street and pay 10.00 to park. The staff did not explain that you had to buy an access card from them to get your money back. My husband showed... More

Beds were uncomfortable. Sheets and pillows felt shady. Everything felt unsanitary and old. Elevators were the slowest and smallest I've ever been on. Our room didn't even have it's own microwave. Staff was friendly and the balcony was nice and big but definitely not staying here again. This motel needs some major updates/renovations.

Sign out front advertised rooms at $49.00/night or $199.00/week. I was looking for a place to de-stress for a week, so I signed up for the week deal. I paid the bill with my debit card but they would not accept any credit cards for the security deposit. They had to have $100.00 cash. This raised a red flag, so... More
