We spent a four day vacation in Virginia Beach with family. The hotel was great. The staff were very friendly, the room clean and comfortable. The view from our balcony was exceptional.Who wouldn't enjoy waking up to the ocean, a beautiful boardwalk and pier? The breakfast in the hotel was the best.We can't wait to go back.

Our family vacation was made even better by the fact that we were able to have a room on the seventh floor of this hotel. What a view! The hotel was undergoing some renovations but the guests were not inconvenienced in any way. Very nice room and the guest services were excellent. The staff was very congenial and helpful. Will...

HORRIBLE! First off, after calling and explaining why the fact that I was stuck on the side of the road for hours and missed my check-in time, they charged me for the night...even though I could easily produce receipts for the flat bed and the mechanic that I had to use to even get there. I politely asked for an... More

I can't tell you how pleased and surprised I was when I dragged myself in and found the body wash and shampoo already available and on the wall! That was a feature I've never seen before and it brightened up my trip before I even left the room. The view out of my 8th story window and balcony was awesome!... More

This hotel is in the middle of everything. All of the rooms face the ocean and the pier. Everything else you need is in walking distance. There is a restaurant in the hotel for a very convenient breakfast. There are a lot of other places to eat nearby on the boardwalk or along Atlantic Avenue. I think that it was... More
