Broken furniture and not clean

I travel with a dog, so I’m not a super picky hotel person, but I left here early. The door didn’t latch securely, and I ended up pushing the chair against the door and my suitcase against the door. Everything felt somewhat sticky, so much so that I wiped down the nightstand, counter, and table. I pulled the bedspreads immediately, which I don’t normally do. The shower curtain looked gross, so I skipped showering. The nightstand was missing a leg…well, technically it was under the nightstand, so not missing but not attached. Then the bed collapsed when my dog stood on it. He’s not that big of a dog, and he wasn’t even jumping. He was just lying down and stood up and it collapsed. The lady at the front desk was pretty apathetic and said there were no other rooms. It was a busy season, so I couldn’t find any other place to stay. Luckily, it was a two bed room, so I didn’t have to sleep on the collapsed bed. The one positive note is that the gentleman at the desk in the morning agreed to let me cancel my remaining nights, but it looks like they double charged me for the pet fee!

The bed was comfortable. The room was as clean as you can make an older place. The staff was delightful! The resident Barn Swallows were a charming addition.

Stayed here for the evening with my kids and needed a dog friendly hotel. Out of all the hotels this had the smallest pet fee of only $25! When most hotels are charging $75. the kitchen was a huge plus for me that way i could stay in and cook without having to spend extra money or worry about leaving the dogs unattended. If your traveling with kids just know there are no amenities to keep the kids occupied , like a pool etc. But it was quick overnight stop after a long days drive and was perfect for our situation.

Mehhh

The room was quiet. The beds were rock hard and out beds were super creaky and loud to the point if you barely moved it would be so loud it would wake everybody up. There are some uncomfortable stools but no chairs. It was kind of dump honestly.

This is a perfect stop for us as we drive from New York to OBX, but this year the flies were pretty bad. We spent a good portion of time trying to kill the ones that got into the room. The room is a great size, and having a full kitchen is nice. The AC was great, and beds were comfortable.

Five miles from downtown Cape Charles, convenient location. Room clean but no housekeeping one of three days. Says has full kitchen. Refrigerator rusted and smells like fish. Only one drinking glass. No sharp knife or pans.

If you like sleeping, eating, showering and watchi

The price was raised because of the 4th July. That's fine, but the mandatory charge for 1 night to book the reservation was another issue. Then not being able to pay balance the day of check in was crazy. Had to pay 5 days before check in or threatened to cancel our reservation with no refund of 1st night. CRAZY!

Arrived at 3pm for check in. Was told rooms aren't ready it'll be about 3:30pm from the front desk guy who seemed to have an attitude. We rented 4 rooms, not a single room is ready. We waited in the car until 3:30pm, still not ready. Didn't get a room until 4pm. Rooms are big however the door locks on 2 of the rooms are sketchy, the doors are loose when closed and door knobs feel like they are broken. Location is ideal and rooms are large but sadly it is badly managed.
