    The place is badly in need of updating and repair. There was water damage on the ceiling from I guess the room upstairs. The furniture was all scratched up (from the TV stand to the night stand). I also found a cut up aluminum can underneath my mattress. Not cool.

    Lady at front desk was very friendly and the location was very ideal (i.e. close to ferry, Starbucks across the street).

    I do not like their policy of automatic cancellation of reservations if the credit card does not clear the first time. I experienced this during my attempted last stay, two weeks earlier. Fraud alert logarithms often cause the initial charges to be refused. Time should be allowed for the customer to either make alternative payment accommodations or call the credit card company to authenticate the charge. Often when trying to correct customer service issues with either a credit card company or a hotel, there is a wait 30+ minutes to get mistakes rectified. In my case it was too late to save my reservation with quality Inn and suites Olde town. I called my credit card company ahead of time on the recent stay to warn them that a charge would be coming and to please allow it to be processed.

    The location is the best part about the property.

    The pool, gym and ice machine were all there but couldn't be used. This is long after the mandates have been lifted. Breakfast was very limited. Covid has become the catch-all excuse for everything. Restrictions were lifted over 30 days ago. Cut the price by 30% or get up to speed.

    Location was good for what we were doing. We did hear what sounded like gun fire outside and a police car raced by in response. Be careful in the area, especially after dark.

    I wish the pool and gym were open for use.

    The hotel is located in a great quiet location, close to highways , restaurants and shops. The staff worker at the breakfast buffet was extra friendly and enjoyable to talk to on my trip. In the suite, I was glad to have 2 TV's. All staff that I came in contact with was great.

    When I drove up on the property I immediately wanted a refund. The outside appearance wasn't really great. It is an older building but was ok. Did want to get in the pool but it was closed.

    The room was wonderful. Had what we needed. Cleaning service was delightful. Room was clean would stay again. Breakfast was fulfilling.

    The "Good" rating at this property is a joke. The room was filthy. There were stains on the bed spread that resembled dried blood. Damage to the walls. A beer cap on the floor from whoever stayed their previously. Smudes on the nightstand that looked like grease. All the lamps and light fixtures where dusty and not clean. Only 1 ice machine was working on the first floor. I stayed on the 3rd floor in room 308.

    The hotel was quiet.

    There were hairs all over the tub and floor in the bathroom. It was gross. The woman who checked me in at the front desk didn’t get up from her chair. I had to reach over the counter and strain to hand her my credit card. The man who worked at night was angry with me because I didn’t know to use my room key to open the front door.

    It was average. The AC worked well

    Everything could have been better, but if I had to focus on one thing it would be the horrible attitude of the staff. She immediately scolded me for ringing the bell at the door even though it says to ring the bell for service. Then she proceeds to steal my money 2 minutes later.

    This was the crappiest hotel experience I have EVER had!!!! The hotel staff was the worst! They charged me extra charges with no refund and 15 minutes into my stay I had to book another hotel at redroof in just so I could get out of that terrible situation. Save your money and go literally anywhere else.

    I didn’t like the pool looking so nasty…. And the fact that our view was of a wall and there seemed to be mold in the hotel outside of our room.

    The woman who handles the breakfast bar is the best employee at this location. She is such a kind woman and keeps a smile on her face! She really helped me feel better about my stay. I wish her well!!! The breakfast was suitable and nice! the location was perfect for limiters members needing to go to the naval medical hospital Portsmouth.

    When I made the reservation, I specifically asked for a pet friendly room. I was told that it wasn't a problem. My reason for coming to Virginia was to pick up a new puppy for my family. When checking in around 1130pm, I explained to the very nice lady at the front desk that I would be picking up the puppy the next day. She looked surprised, and told me they didn't allow pets,just service dogs. I ended up checking out the next morning instead

    The location was perfect for me.
