So it was a quick in and out . Dropped car off at airport and just needed place with a shuttle for the morning. The two shuttle drivers were excellent. The lady who checked me in and the young guy who checked me out , both very good as well. Service was good , but the customer interaction was even better .
I made a reservation and held it with my credit card one week before my arrival date. On the day of arrival, while enroute, I received a phone call from the front desk telling me that they had to cancell my reservation due to overbooking the hotel. The front desk clerk did let me know that there where other hotels close by if I was interested. I asked to have the names of the properties emailed to me. Instead, I received an email showing that I made a late cancellation which comes with a cancellation fee. The hotel manager was kind enough to waive the fee but made no attempt to find me a room. Every staff person that I had spoken with had a very clear ”Could Care Less” attitude. I did manage to get a room through Hilton Honors, which I have been a loyal member for over 25 years. Although, their attitude was about the same as the Hampton Inn in regards to the issue. So, if your travels require you to have a guarantied room, do not make a reservation with this hotel, and think twice about making one with any Hilton property. I do not think that Hilton fully understands the power of a network of a respected person attending a business meeting with 150 other travelers. Many will not stay here again.
My family and I needed a short stay in Norfolk and I found this place. When we arrived, we were greeted nicely. I needed adjoining rooms, but the hotel was booked. The lady at the front desk accommodated me very nicely and I was happy. The breakfast was good and plentiful. There was access to water, tea and coffee at all times. And we were very close to the outlets. I recommend this place.
This hotel was clean, and the front desk staff welcoming. Be advised that there are no suites at this hotel with 2 beds. The 2-Queen rooms are smaller than the standard 2 queen rooms at other hotels, and they do not include an unholstered chair or corner desk with desk chair. Instead, there's a nightstand sized bureau, a long table under the walled TV, a desk chair, and a backless cushioned stool chair. Maximum occupancy is 4. I had offered an overnight stay to my niece and sister who wanted an extra day in the area for the beach and was surprised to find upon check-in that there was no sofa bed in my 2 Queen room. We reviewed the Hotel's online photos which were very misleading, since none of the 2 bd rooms are suites or include a sofa bed. Be advised that the suites have 1 King bd and a sofa bed in a studio or separated configuration. The separated configuration only has an upholstered chair. Breakfast was adequate, clean and nicely labeled, and the free airport shuttle was great. I could have paid less at another hotel for more room and the room accommodations I received though.
While booking our room there was a special request area on the website, I advised them that our arrival time would be rather late. Within a few minutes I had an email from them assuring me that it would not be a problem. Very comforting response. They were very welcoming upon our arrival, our room was neat, clean and comfortable. The air conditioner was already on so our room temperature was comfortable. The bed was comfortable. The center courtyard was a pleasant place to relax. We were looking for an independent small place, and we scored on this one. We would definitely stay there again.
I travel often for work and pleasure, usually upwards of 100 days a year. I have been a member of Hilton Honors for over 15 years and I have never left a hotel review before. Monique has made my stay! Her customer service is excellent, she is always in a good mood, and she made me feel as if I was the most important guest here. I am happy to write this review and recognize her for her exceptional customer service. I have stayed at 5-star hotels who didn't come close to the level of care, professionalism, and service that Monique has provided. I haven't interacted with any other staff yet, but if they are of her caliber, then I look forward to it.
ผผู้เข้าพักI wasn't allowed to change my reservation from 2 nights to 1 night after finding out our match schedule. We drove in early Friday morning with the intent of checking in then bc we had a room for Thursday and Friday night only to be told the room was released as a no-show (which I had sent a message through the Hilton App that we would be checking in early Friday am). So, then I had to wait to check in on Friday for Friday night until after 1:00 pm BUT I was still charged for the Thursday night room which - I was fine with bc we wanted to check in early - but that didn't happen. The hotel was not helpful at all with the situation and kind of played dumb with the whole process. I will not be keeping my Hampton Rewards for future stays. For a preferred customer rewards program - not happy with the outcome.
ผผู้เข้าพักThe room was large so we were able to spread out however, there were only 3 small drawers to put our stuff in. They could put a taller/wider dresser with more drawers in for more storage options. There was a shelf over the sink in the bathroom so we had extra storage in there which was great. There was only one hook for all of our towels, not convenient when trying to dry multiple towels. Water pressure was great. Some of the staff was really nice, some seemed like we were bothering them. Breakfast staff was amazing and helpful. Breakfast was ok at best. We had to use the business center and there was a roach on the wall. I told the front desk and they didn't seem concerned about it.
The Econo Lodge in Little Creek is by far one of the cleanest, most comfortable hotels in the area! My husband and I travel to the Norfolk/Virginia Beach area about once a month for work. This is def my favorite place to stay! Bed/sheets were super clean & fresh, floors were spotless, and bathroom was perfect! These rooms are very spacious and homey feeling. The staff is extra friendly and helpful and the location is peaceful. They serve a nice little breakfast in the Lobby but if you want something different, there’s a Starbucks (def a necessity lol), a Bar n Grill, and many other food/necessities within walking distance. The front parking lot is a little small but there is lots of extra parking in the back which is helpful if needed. It’s a very short drive to the beach!! You could even walk it if you don’t mind walking about a 1/2 mile but it’s like a 2 min drive and parking is free. The Cova Brewing Co and Beach park are close by! Now for my favorite part THE BEACH!!! The Chesapeake Bay beach area (beach park) by this hotel is one of the most beautiful in the area. We enjoy it more than Virginia Beach! There are beautiful rocks lined down the middle and little waves so you can relax and enjoy your time in the water. It’s not overcrowded like Virginia Beach and everyone is very friendly. Out of all the times we’ve visited this area, my husband and I both agree WE HAVE THE BEST TIME when we stay at The Econo Lodge Little Creek!
***Do not stay here** stayed here part of a wedding party. After checking in my room it was a smell **** and cigarette smoke through out the hall way. That wasn’t the worst part. I arrived with me and my family things to the first room that smelled and had some white substance coated the windows due maybe water leak. The comforter and couch was soiled. I ask to be moved to another room. My next room smelled a lot better and looked cleaner. Most of brides wedding party and guest left the hotel that night because of the condition of the hotel. Prior to leaving for our first event of the evening there were roaches on the sink and my breaking point was a baby roach was in the middle of my bed. I could not have my children in this type of environment. Me and my family could not sleep here. I don’t write reviews but they need to do something about this. This hotel is very old and unkept.
