Categories

Cleanliness
1
Multiple reports of stains, bedbugs, strong rotten-fish odor, refrigerator smelling of bacteria, and generally outdated/dirty rooms; housekeeping also reported as unreliable and intrusive in one case.
Service
1
Several mentions of very friendly and helpful staff (Osmar, day staff); some positive front-desk interactions, though there are isolated reports of poor communication and problems with housekeeping integrity.
Location
1
Consistently praised: beachfront, excellent location and great ocean views cited repeatedly; many reviewers highlighted location as a major positive.
Room Quality
1
Mixed: some liked roomy suites and comfortable beds, but many noted outdated rooms, needed repairs, small/nonworking TVs, limited hot/cold water, and tiny spa tubs.
Amenities
1
Repeated problems: pool closed/broken or not heated, advertised bikes unavailable, safes charged extra, elevator failures; amenities often under-delivered or out of service.
Value for Money
1
Multiple guests felt misled by advertising (e.g., bikes, free parking) and reported paying for services that seemed expected to be included, making cost seem high for condition.
Food and Beverage
1
Several reviewers noted no breakfast offered; limited to no food/beverage services mentioned and absence of expected complimentary items.
Overall Experience
1
Mixed overall: while several guests had very negative stays (smoke, odors, broken amenities), others emphasized excellent location, views and helpful staff—resulting in a polarized but overall salvageable impression for some travelers.

Pros:

It was right there at the pier in the middle of most of the action

Cons:

They charged me for parking $10 a day. When it was supposed to be free. There was no continental breakfast and they had no sugar for the coffee at the lobby
The establishment can make a lot more money. If they opened up the kitchen again. The shower was huge, but the water pressure. It was awful.

Bad experience :( NO VOLVERIA
Cons:

My experience at this hotel was disappointing. From the moment I walked in, the hallways and entrance smelled strongly of cigarette smoke, which made a very poor first impression.

The ice machine was out of ice and looked dirty, as if it hadn't been properly cleaned or maintained.

The pool was much smaller than I expected, and the parking spaces were extremely narrow, making it difficult to park a vehicle.

In addition, when I arrived to check out, I had to wait quite a long time because there was no one at the front desk to assist me.

Overall, I was very disappointed with my stay, and this is not a hotel I would choose to return to.

My stay at breakers was decent but it would not be in my top 5 stays in Va Beach.
Pros:

Right on the beach. Close to stores and food.

Cons:

Parking was the worst situation ever. Pillows were flat. And had to go to a different floor to get ice.

Pros:

The location

Cons:

The clerk said there were no rooms ready at 2:45. The parking lot was empty. Then he asked me to take all my stuff off the cart because people needed it when A:"there were no rooms ready" and B: there were 3 other carts sitting there.
And a bunch of crack heads live there.

I have never been told there aren't any rooms ready no matter the check in time
I will not be staying there again and will not recommend the Breaker
