Unfortunately our stay was not as pleasant as the recent reviews. We stayed in room 208. We did not have a view of the bay, although I did ask for this. The furnishings in this room were very old and not at all welcoming! When we opened the door door to our room we were greeted with an old brown... More

We stayed at this facility visiting our Navy seaman Sept, 2011. The place was nice enough, we had a kitchenette unit. The view from the balocny was amazing. Breakfast was average, and the deck and pool area were very well kept. There was some remodeling that was going on, so everytime we left our room, we had to bypass a... More

Friendly staff, clean rooms, & great view of the bay! Great breakfast selection! Only drawback was the road construction and the neighborhood. The hotel was reasonably priced and worth the money. I would stay here again. More

I stayed at the Best Western on January 13, 2012. Linda and Felicia provided me with excellent customer service and they really cheered me up that night. The security guard was even helpful. The room was nicer than some 4 star hotels. It was extremely clean!! Thanks to Gloria the housekeeper!! Last but not lest worthy of praise is the... More

Got this place for a good deal with my AAA discount, and you get a good deal. Had a King bedroom without the ocean view (more expensive) and it was a little cramped, but still nice. They had very good customer service at the front desk and great staff all around. The views were gorgeous if you walked down to... More

First of all, this hotel is in "Ocean View", which is actually a beach on the lower Chesapeake Bay (it's about 20 miles east to the real ocean!) It is bayfront, and relatively quiet, although there is quite a bit of traffic on the main road. It was easy to get to; right off of I-64. The original part of... More

The staff was great at this hotel. The hotel is very attractive and the views are spectacular. However, the room was a bit dated, though clean and, though there was a small kitchen, the kitchen supplies were lacking. Overall, the room was comfortable. More

This hotel is conveniently located near the airport plus it has beautiful ocean views. It is affordable and the staff is friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the carpets in our room had been recently cleaned and were still wet which was very unpleasant. The complimentary breakfast was better than some. More

This hotel has clearly deteriorated since the pictures on the website were taken. The sign is smashed out; the property is run-down: peeling paint, scruffy carpets; adhesive squares in the dirty elevator where signs have been removed, dingy hallways. The room smelled both musty and of cigars, despite the "no smoking unit" designation. There was a half-empty can of soda... More

Spent the weekend of Sept 15th to Sept 18th at this Best Western as part of a travel package. We were in town to celebrate our Son-in-Law's promotion to Chief in the US Navy. We found the hotel to be the perfect distance to the base with the Little Creek entrance being just down the road. After a hellacious trip... More
