"All staff were helpful and kind. The view was breathtaking. Breakfast was great. Especially the waffles! The only thing I found unsatisfactory is the carpet in the room. My sister got blisters on her feet due to wearing the wrong shoes on our walk the first night. Because of this, she went barefoot in our room. The bottoms of her feet were filthy. So I know the carpeting has not been cleaned."

Holiday Inn & Suites Virginia Beach North Beach by IHG

8/10 Good
"We love this property because it’s prime location. On the quiet end of the beach very convenient. The shuttle is right outside as is 7/11 and the rest is within a few block walk. The pools here are the best we spend our days hopping from one pool to the beach to another’s it’s nice they have a kids room and a movie room the restaurants aren’t very good but they are convenient and there’s a few options. The staff could be friendlier no one says hello or anything. The ice machine on our floor was broken and the vending was missing. The elevators are very slow. The place needs a serious remodel it’s very run down and there’s quite a lot of water damage and even some mold in our room. The views are the best part! Dolphins outside the patio every morning! Very affordable. Beds are hard but the air worked well the pillows are comfy the tv worked well lots of channel options nice size fridge Dunkin in walking distance. Quite rooms we slept great."
