For the price, not what I was expecting... I've stayed at hotels that were 100 times better than this one for less... it is very run down and needs work. The bathroom had dirt all around the edges. Bed was uncomfortable. Was worried about stuff getting stolen from my vehicle because the lighting in the parking lot would have allowed it to easily happen. I should have just slept in the bed of my pickup.

We did have an issue with our first room as they are renovating the rooms. Went to the front desk and asked for a different room and they were able to find us one and even kept us on the first floor (even though it did not matter if we were on second floor). Location was great as it is near everything we needed being there for return to home port for my daughter’s fiancé’s ship.

Decent, clean property. Not the best, not the worst. Has decent breakfast and rooms are alright. Hotel is not quite as advertised on Expedia (no pool, etc) and if you need anything after about 3-4 p.m. the front desk can’t help you much (like towels) but still overall not a bad place to sleep and close to the naval base.

Don’t waste your money!! I requested an ADA room when I made my reservation. Upon check-in, I was given a room on the second floor- I asked if there were elevators and there are not so I referred to my reservation request. I was then given a room a room on the first floor. Room was in the middle of the building, yet the ADA ramps are at the end! Ok, I dealt with the extended walk in order to get my mother to the room. Get inside and there is so much furniture, maneuver a wheelchair is almost impossible! The room “looked” clean, but upon further inspection, I noticed a stain on the sheets on one of the beds, the faucet at thw sink was broken and only had one good working handle, and the tub was absolutely disgusting!! Black stained, large rust spots, this room should never be offered to a guest! I had to put towels on the tub bottom just to use it and pray I didn’t get some type of fungus! Never again!

This place is horrible! Aside from the fact that it smells really bad, and possibly has mold, I stayed from Sunday to Friday, just checked out this morning…. And they NEVER came in to change sheets, even though I let the front desk know! Not one time did they come to provide any time of service! Horrible place! Will never visit again!

Room needed a deep clean. Floors were absolutely filthy. From the reviews I’ve read, the excuse will be that they are in the middle of a renovation. That is no excuse for the rooms to not be clean. Planned on staying 2 nights, but only stayed one due to the condition of the lack of cleanliness. Hotel clerk didn’t even bother to ask the reason we were checking out early. The attached pictures don’t do justice to the filth of the room.

Booked a recent stay while visiting my daughter at ODU. Do not recommend and would never stay at this property again. First impression was a tampon and bullet casing on the ground outside of my room. Inside room, SO damp the floor looked like it had just been mopped. The sheets were wet. In the morning all my clothes felt like they came out of the dryer mid way through the cycle. Travel size shampoo and conditioner bottle were 1/2 full and displayed next to a plastic wrapped soap. No complaints about the front dest staff.

I was supposed to stay 4 nights, we only ended up staying 2 because after even the 1st night me and my husband started to feel sick while in the room. After the 2nd night, we were really feeling sick. Coughing, mucus, body aches, headaches, and slight fevers & all of that lasted for 2 whole days after we left the hotel. We think there is either a mold problem or something in the ac. The floors were filthy, the towels and sheets had visible stains on them. Would not recommend.

When we checked in, there was hair on the shower wall, the floors had hair piles on them, the sheets on one of the beds were dirty, and the soap at the sink had not been replaced. The used soap from the people before us, was placed back in the wrapper and left there for us to use!! I was so disgusted, we got a refund for the room and checked into another hotel down the street.

First of all, when I tried to lock the door with the bolt. The nail from the chain fell on the floor. No lock and bolt. The furniture was very old and dated. It was very clean in the room, at least. I noticed rust on the towel bars and the hinges that held the doors. That was not a very good look. The bed was very springy. Not comfortable at all. The walls were very thin. I could hear what was going on beside and on top of me throughout the night. Very disturbing. Not to mention, the different sirens throughout the night. It was quite loud. I put some trash from my food in the garbage can that was in the room and by morning I had a bunch of ants all over of it. That was also disturbing. I found someone's used sock on the floor. The hotel was very close to my daughter's school, Old Dominion University. Other than that, I will not be staying there,again, nor do I recommend it for anyone else.

It is a good hotel to sleep and go. In the middle of a remodel andnwhat was remodeled in our room was of poor quality. The bed was extremely comfortable. The tub had new tile on an old tub that needed new fixtures and to be re-glazed. So if you just want a place to rest to visit your sailor then it does the job.

DO NOT STAY HERE, RUN!!! Upon arrival the place was flooded with police on scene, there were active arrests taking place, I was told I couldn’t enter the premises. When I called to cancel the reservation due to the active situation, the manage “Dav” told me he would not refund or cancel the reservation because “there wasn’t a reason to cancel” when I told him the police wouldn’t permit anyone on the property he told me it wasn’t his problem and that he was sticking to the policy of “no refunds for same day cancellation” the police couldn’t do anything to help me and when I called Choice Hotels (their corporate office) they also told me they couldn’t overturn a charge at the location level. It is a battle that I continue to fight because it’s insane. Dav is incredibly rude, gnawingly loathsome and absent hearted. Not to mention the facility itself from the outside appears detestable.

Motel is not in the best area. King bed was actually a “pull out” style / wire bed with a 1980’s couch. Hallways were sketchy. Front desk lady was nice however the manager was bit rude. Price is definitely high for the stay. Not the worst I’ve been to however , if another option , take the other.

Book somewhere else! The only positive was the front desk attendant at check-in, who was very nice. The hotel itself was outdated and unclean. Our room had wet, dirty hardwood floors, the door wouldn’t close unless slammed, and the towels had hair and lipstick stains on them. Housekeeping was already gone by the time we checked in (they leave at 3 PM), so with four people in the room, we were only given two towels and told we had to wait until the next day. The next day, they told us to leave our unused/dirty towels on the ground outside the door. Mind you it was pavement, not carpet as it was outside which now makes sense why their towels were so filthy. As for the “continental breakfast,” it was the bare minimum and honestly didn’t feel safe to eat. Never again.

What stay? They canceled my prepaid reservation via hotels.com because i arrived at 230AM after their "audit." They said i was a no-show. They wanted me to pay again plus more money before i could get a room. This is at 230AM. Said I should have called. I already paid. I said no thanks. Went to hampton down the road who said they have same policy. They wanted to charge me $$$ Saturday rate on a Friday night. I slept fine in the car. Got "courtesy" refund from hotels. Forget these 3. Just stay at Fairfield.

The value for what i paid is appropriate. Usually I dont mind the basics but this place was a little sketch. The room was rated nonsmoking but if that is so, the nonsmoking went into effect maybe 3 months ago because it smelled like cigarette smoke. It was clean just stinky. We had a room closer to the front and could hear ALL the traffic ALL night long.
