Days Inn Virginia Beach Oceanfront

Overall had a pleasant stay here for the Shamrock Marathon. However, did not find them terribly helpful in regards to check-​out. Asked for a late check-​out for Sunday and was told they would extend to 2 pm only. As check-​in wasn’t until 4 and the race didn’t start until 8:30 AM, this was just insufficient. They informed me that my only other choice was to pay for an additional night, even if I was not going to use it. So that was a rather useless extra $ 80+. Considering the event would not have taken much for them, and I could easily still have been out before their normally scheduled check-​in time.
Other than that, rooms were quite nice, and the beach view was gorgeous. Adjoining rooms were nice, and allowed me to visit with friends who were also running the race. Parking out front was insufficient, but they did have another lot across the street and behind the buildings. Overall, for the price, this was a good property, though I was less than impressed with the ability to accommodate someone coming in for an event that I assume brings them considerable business. Next time I’ll look elsewhere.

Stayed at this hotel while on vacation. The hotel was neat and clean. Staff was friendly. Rooms were up to par. Clean and looked fresh. The hallways leading to the rooms had a light smell of smoke and the rooms had usual wear and tear on some of the walls and furniture. House keeping always kept the place looking nice. Continental breakfast wasn’t great but it was decent for being included in the price. Comfortable room with great A/​C unit. For the view of the beach and price it was a good stay!

Yes that’s right 5 stars. A budget hotel right in the middle of the boardwalk with a continental breakfast, pool, fridge, microwave, clean rooms, friendly staff, free parking and where EVERY room has an ocean view plus balcony?
Right… I’m not going to get too picky either for the money.
Sure the hotel needs a paint job and upgrade. Sure the sliding door leaks water in a hard rain. Sure the water pressure is kinda weak and the shower head comes up to this big guy’s chin.
That’s all fine! Because we got a room on the beach, right in the middle of the board walk, with an ocean view, friendly service and all that other stuff in the first paragraph for a really good price.

Traveling through the area, called last minute, was giving a reservation over the the phone, got their check in, very nice staff, they put me on the 6^th floor.
Super view, right on the ocean over looking the boardwalk. Looked like an up dated room, very clean,
refrig, flat screen tv, seemed like a newly remodeled bath. Will be back

I stayed at this hotel for the Shamrock 8K & Half Marathon. It was right on the beach and I only had to walk a few blocks for the start and finish lines; the convention center is a 1.25 mile walk through a good neighborhood, so getting to & from the Expo wasn’t bad. The room was pretty spacious, and having a fridge & microwave made race mornings easier. (Breakfast begins at 7, too late to get before running) The room & bathroom were clean, but the rugs in the room & hallways were a little outdated. The only other minor issues I had were that the elevators were extremely slow, and that there’s only this little metal hook thing to keep the balcony door locked. Other than that, it was a good deal for the money.

Very clean hotel. We stayed 1 week. Daily maid service excellent! We had one special lady that was super friendly that made our stay A+. Indoor pool, small but clean. Breakfast is ok. same everyday… cheese omelet, oatmeal, dry muffins/​Danishes, breads, juice, fruit, yogurt, and cereals. The key is to get there early to have a place to sit. Parking is a pain. Two lots, one on sight then next across the street behind shops. Cigarette burns in blankets. Non smoking floor but neighbors apparently didn’t get memo. Overall nice stay. Great view of beach and access to everything great!

I stayed here for 4 days and 3 nights this past weekend /​early work week. I had a no smoking room with a king size bed that overlooked the Ocean (which I found out ALL rooms overlook the ocean).
When we arived there was very little parking. So little parking in fact that people were waiting for a place to park. Thankfully we found a place within a few minutes. We checked in around 2:30ish, even though the check in time was 4pm. So that was nice of them to allow us to check in early.
Go up to the room and go on the balcony and are in awe of the breath taking view of the beach. We saw an air show with what looked like World War II era fighter planes doing tricks, so that was fun to watch.
The room was spacious. Nothing overly fancy, but nothing dingy either. Just a normal room with a king sized bed with an amazing view of the ocean.
I am a morning person so every morning my SO and I got up around 5:30ish and watched the sun rise over the ocean. It was beautiful and something out of a post card. We would then get ready for the day and eat breakfast in the loby.
Breakfast was your usual asortment of continental breakfast items. Nothing overly special. But, hey, we were doing this trip on a budget so a free breakfast was better than nothing or having to go out…
My SO would then go on to the beach around 7:30… no one was there so we had ample room to choose where to set up our stuff. We would go back in the early afternoon and the room would already be clean.
I would stay here again for sure.

Two down sides that I forgot to add
We stayed on the side of the building next to the park with a little stage. 2 out of the 3 nights we were staying there there was a live cover band concert going on. While that was entertaining for a few minutes it got really annoying when we were trying to sleep at 11pm on Monday night and they were still playing music. You could hear everything.
Also, the front desk kept calling us a few times a day to give us our welcome packet. We got our welcome packet when we checked in. This was kind of annoying. Also the key decactivated once.

I stayed at this hotel for one night in a sunny winter weekend. When I rate it 4 stars, my main criteria was its value for money. If you have high standards this may not be your taste, but for me affordability with practicality was the main issue. At the end of the day you only stay there for a night or so won’t you? I paid $ 89 plus tax and stayed there in one big room with my wife, mother and 2 kids. The room was comfortable and large and the ocean view was great. (all rooms look at the ocean) Besides microwave, dining table and fridge made our life a lot easier. Internet connection was ok to stream movies on my tablet before falling asleep. On top of these it has an indoor pool which my kids enjoyed both at night and the morning. Breakfast was acceptable too. Not very reach but good enough (Again don’t forget that you only pay $ 89 to buy all these for five people)
What could have been better: The general apperance of the hotel. It needs a real good painting of the interior walls with some repairs in the door frames etc. It looks as if noone has touched it after the dissolution of Soviet Union :). Same can be said for the corridors and the pool area. Besides the beds could have been larger. At least queen size instead of double.
My conclusion is: It is nothing like hilton, but a good value hotel for those who don’t ask too much.

Let me start by saying if you having second thought about staying here listen to it. Specially if only a few dollars. You will get a better accommodation. To be fare the view is nice typical ocean front view you get to watch people walk and ride their bikes all day. Now for the room. We got a king size bed and one side was sunk in. Expect toss and turning nights. I gave them
1star due to that them had a crib for my daughter to sleep in. Everything else is similar to motel 6. Not making fun of motel6 but for the price you would expect little bit more.

what can I say, for what they charge, it surely is deceiving. This place sucks, but if you want a place to lay over make this your last choice

I was down using up the rest of my families season points. I took my Wife and Kids. When we first arrived the ceiling was leaking in the doorway leading to the lobby… I’m like obee kaybee were in for it. Got the keys and waited for the elevator and the one to the left was on the outs… Those first impressions were kind of bad. The room was clean on the 5^th floor. The lady that cleans on the 5^th floor is pretty good and kept us up with towels ect. She was very courteous and friendly. So my room was pretty clean. he Bathroom was tight. There is barely enough room to close the door to clear the toilet bowl. We did get free wifi so the kids and their video games consoles were on fast and they were chatting with their buddies at the beach. COOL! Rooms come in double twins with a 32 inch Flat Screen. The walls were thin… and the balcony offered less privacy. There is a pool from 3 – 5 feet and a loft to chill on off the second floor. But all in all its not a bad place to stay for the cost. Your right in the middle of the boardwalk so you really dont need to drive. Plus you will want to save your parking spot as parking at the hotel is limited but they do have a lot behind the buidling across the street.
They dont have warm breakfast… just continental which is free. They do have a security guard on site which is different from alot of other places. The staff was cool we lost our parking pass and we didnt have any problems. I would try other places before going back to them but the price is good. Its not about the room amenities but the overall stay… And I had a great stay.

OK it was a freebie with my Whyndam points glad we didn’t actually shell out any $$. The room was so so the bathroom was small & the stucco was coming down in the shower. The staff was NICE but it didnt make up for the paper thin walls & balconys are NOT PRIVATE. There is smoking in the hotel even though we had a non smoking room you could tell it wasnt a smoke free in the bldg. I can let you know we WILL NOT be staying here again. Not the best choice if you want peace & quiet. Not trying to be a party pooper but it’s good if nothing else is available on the beach. They offer wifi but i could never get connected.

It was good enough to sleep then run. It wasn’t what I would call clean but it didn’t completely give me the heebee gee-​bees which is a plus. I booked a non smoking bc I have asthma and now a wonderful respiratory infection and they put us on the smoking floor. We could not swap and that really pissed me off bc I specifically asked for non smoking! After the night I am going to have to return to the doctors bc my breathing has gotten worse from being in that stinky room! The breakfast sucked glad I brought my own but it was a nice gesture to offer it early to the runners. I don’t think I will stay here again just bc I didnt feel clean while I was there but staff was nice enough. The parking sucked!

Affordable, clean, friendly. We had an oceanfront room with a jacuzzi and king bed for around $ 120/​night. It was close to everything so no need to drive once you’re here. It is very non-​frills, nothing special, but I would definitely recommend it if you’re not looking to spend a lot.
