Norfolk review

The door leading to waterfront was locked from outside. Extremely inconvenient to walk all the way around outside of building to front. Two employees didn't know why the keycard feature didn't work. The bar was out of many wines that were ordered. Fan in bathroom not working. Stains on bathroom ceiling. Employees were friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. We were contacted when we could check in early. The view was great.

I got there at 4:30pm, i was told room wouldn't be ready until some time after 6pm!! Then, they put 2 holds on my card for the room!! Each hold was the price of the room. It was at the beginning of my vacation and this tied up a lot of my money i had for my trip. It took a week for one of them to clear and the 2nd is still on there, I was told it wont come off of my account until 5/23!! I am so upset that they did this! They didnt even discount my room cost for all the mistakes! They should have comped me the room. I wont stay there again. Very poor management.

First off if you go down town which is a bock or so away it smell of urine. The entire hotel needs a face lift. It reminds you of a low quality hotel that should cost 69.99 a night. Instead I paid over 200.00 and it should be upscale like the Hilton. I misread the breakfast and it is 18.99 a person and the hotels with free breakfast is better. I would not suggest this hotel to anyone for the price you pay.

Overall the hotel is ok. The staff at the hotel is professional and friendly. Its location on the water is nice, especially if you’re sitting in the restaurant/bar at night. However, it is quite outdated, particularly the bathrooms. Please upgrade to chair height toilets!
