8/10 Good
"We had a nice long weekend at the Virginia. The location is perfect. Easy walk to all of the shopping. Easy walk to the beach access. The staff at the beach was great.. set up our chairs and umbrella for us. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Housekeeping does a nice job of making sure we had what we needed. It was great to be able to enjoy breakfast on the front porch, however, the service at breakfast is slow and the wait staff seems overwhelmed and not able to keep up. They were very polite, just slow and not attentive. While waiting for the food, they should bring the coffee or other drinks, but they don't. They have you fill out your order and time the day before, so I am not sure why we had to wait for such a long time for breakfast to be served each day. I also think eggs and bacon should be a regular option, instead, they make you pay extra if you want that. They also bring very little creamer for the coffee. But overall, we had a nice relaxing stay."
