I have stayed at this property on several occasions and I plan to continue to stay there when in the area. This really is a beautiful hotel that sits on the river across from Norfolk, VA. If you have a city side room it is a nice view during the day or evening. It is a bit of an odd... More

Very nice hotel. Very clean, staff was friendly and helpful. Had a wonderful view of the river. Could had sit all day and looked out the window. Very relaxing. Had trouble with the wireless internet, it was very slow. Cable TV went out one night and some channels are not clear. Great location. Walked to restaurants and to the ferry. More

I recently stayed there with my family. Was very clean, the staff from the front desk to security to the restaurant over the top friendly.

I have waited an entire week to give the hotel and opportunity to respond to my concerns and they have not called me back. I stayed this past weekend and had several issues. 1. Upon checking in, the room we were assigned was very dirty. There were hairs on the sheets and pillows and several white stains on the couch... More
