Norfolk Hoteller

Loved the hotel the staff was friendly and even gave me a free upgrade to the water view!!! The hotel was clean and sharp looking. We stayed for two nights....and they did not clean our room.

The staff was very accommodating. Was able to check in early. The room was clean. Right next to a beach and close to Norfolk Naval Base. Cigarettes all over the place, patio, walkways, etc. The beach is a bay beach that sits just east of the HRBT. Neighborhood is a bit sketchy in places. Not many restaurant options.

The suites are roomy and comfortable especially for extended stay. Great fully equipped kitchens. Glad there are some healthy options such as boiled eggs and oatmeal on the breakfast bar. Location is great. Walking distance to several restaurants for eat in and carry out. Great walking areas in the nearby Freemason neighborhood. Housekeeping took forever to clean room (I only requested cleaning every 2-3 days of my 12 night stay. They had an attitude when I had to track them down. The breakfast on weekends is a sheer mess. Not enough staff-- not refilled quickly enough. If you get there :15 before it ends, don't expect food or sympathy from staff. Blow dryer and iron were horrible. I had to ask for another and the replacements weren't much better. Just super cheap. Pack your own if you can! YMCA is in walking distance. Would be nice for hotel guests to get a break so they can take classes. Parking fee is ridiculous. You can usually find a space on the street-- especially if you are parking around regular business hours or download the app and pay for the meter for a few hours each day.

Clean, cheap, cool ppl Its not in a good area at all. Its in the projects. One guy tried to rob me at gunpoint at 3 am but failed. They tend tp wait around the corner of 24/7 atms and rob the ppl who get cash. Lots of people coked up or cracked out. Drug deals everywhere. People smoking blunts in the parking lot and big parties in multiple rooms. Keep in mind this was a saturday night. Lots of police around but they didnt seem to do anything about any of this unless gun shots fired. Btw everyone seems to pack a gun at night here so you might want to do the same.

Comfortable No resturants

Rooms were very clean. Staff was super courteous. Easy check in and out. Coffee was good and available 24/7. Comfortable beds. Plethora of courtesy toiletries. Price could not be beat. Compared to the hotels in the area, would definitely stay again. Pool was a main attraction for going. It was too cold to swim in. Fitness room was too small. Elevator was broke during our stay but it was fixed by the next day. Breakfast was terrible. I tried everything both days. Spit the French toast out. Hard boiled eggs couldn't even be peeled. Meat did not taste like meat. But cereal and milk, bagels and bananas, and good coffee made up for it.
