Very disappointed and will never stay again.
Pros:

When checking out we spoke with Deb about the issues we encountered and she was wonderful and provided us with a generous discount.

Cons:

Our toilet was clogged no one ever came to fix it. We called guest services at 9pm and was told someone would be up. We waited up 2 hours and no one came. Called again in the morning and we were told no one was there to fix it. Also, the light was out in our room and there was mold on the wall. We will never stay again.

I'm not sure if I will stay here again.
Pros:

The bed was comfortable. The hotel was pretty clean. The desk person that worked in the morning was very accommodating.

Cons:

When we arrived the desk person was not very friendly. She seemed like she was having a bad day. The keys to our room did not work. There was a problem with several rooms. Someone had to let us in our room each time we went out. Only one elevator out of 4 was working. The rooms although fairly clean need a little updating.

Pros:

The rooms was nice.

Cons:

The elevators could do a lot of upgrade. It was making so much noise when it stopped on the floor. It wasn’t even with the floor and the bathrooms they could invest in higher tallest seats the toilets are too low to the floor for a tall person

Trash! The worse experience I've had in such a long time. I would not recommend this place!!
Pros:

I liked the bed and pillows. They were super comfortable and clean

Cons:

The roof leaked, the bathroom tub appeared dirty even when housekeeping cleaned our room. The refrigerator wouldn't stay cold. All the drinks stayed room temperature. the AC kept turning off. We were so disappointed especially for the price we paid. Had I known the hotel would be so run down and so unappealing, I would have stayed away. Only one working elevator which made such a ruckus it scared me every time. The walls are so thin --you can hear the conversations in the next room. Absolutely ridiculous. If I could give a zero rating, I would...

A nice room but no hot water in the shower.
Pros:

The room was quiet and roomy, with a good view of Norfolk. The bed was comfortable. The best part of the hotel was the Bistro that was on the first floor.

Cons:

The shower lacked hot water. The best it could do was almost luke warm with a touch of cold.

It served its purpose for an overnight stay I will not book again here.
Pros:

It’s conveniently located close to where I needed to be

Cons:

The shower was outdated even with the stopper pulled all the way up it did not drain properly, no one wants to waddle in their own “dirt” the rooms are outdated with rust on the baseboards and even under the unit it was stuffed with appeared to be paper in a hole. The sink and tub clearly was painted over and just looked old. We parked not knowing to pull up to the ramp to check in so we are lugging our bags up stairs and the ramp says “cars only” fairly confusing. Out of the 4 elevators only 1 was working, this is homecoming weekend this should’ve been addressed or proper signage. The young lady staff member with glasses working 10/9/26 after 5:00 pm didn’t even review the amenities upon check in, just gave me a memeber bag, was on her personal cell phone, didn’t even point us in the direction of the elevator, didn’t review breakfast or anything, ice machine, nothing!
