You get what you pay for

Room had a musty smell, it’s typical for a place of this type and price. Shower works fine, tv is an ancient model, and once again I got what I payed for. It was a place to sleep and shower. I think I will pay a little more for at least a queen sized bed and no musty smell in the future. “Breakfast “ is a joke, coffee, juice and some granola bars.

The location of the property is perfect. Lots of options around. The rooms were not very please. The staff was kind enough to let us see different options as our first one smelled moldy and the toilet seat was old and looked dirty. Most other rooms smelled old as well. I don’t believe that it was worth the stay. Breakfast was very bare. Nice staff, nice location but not nice rooms

Clean, Comfortable and Budget-Friendly

The location is a bit further from the beach than I expected, but thats because I didn't realize there are 2 Howard Johnsons in Virginia Beach. There were a few minor maintenance issues, but overall we were pleased. It was clean and comfortable! The staff was friendly and we appreciated the complimentary coffee, juice and breakfast snacks. Given the moderate price, I'd give a thumbs up and would book again.
