Great location like you're right on the beach and amazing prices ($60 a night wutttt) also the Indian family who own the place are so nice and accommodating BUT DAMN that 1.5 stars is not lying. My boyfriend and I are sometimes spontaneous travelers and we're looking for a place on the beach in Norfolk and once we saw prices for the Ocean View inn we booked right away. We had to work and decided to do a late check in so I called and no problem at all, so starting off good. Arrive at 10pm and check in, no problem. Get to our room...okay can't complain we're paying $60 but wait, none of the lights turn on accept our bathroom and vanity light...hmm okay it's $60. Then we start looking around and our bathroom has these crazy burn marks and some remnants of hair in the tub, idk about this one guys. The topping on the cake for me was a I decided to walk barefoot on the carpet (should of known better) and I walked on something a little hard. Thinking it might be a piece of the bed or whatever I turn my phone light on, cause none of the lights work and it was a GIANT MF BUG. I honestly have no idea what type of bug this was but it had giant wings and looked like a fly. I was so upset, I took a shower right away in the nasty tub and meanwhile, my boyfriend and I washed our hands in the sink and it just clogged right away so we brushed our teeth or anything else in the shower. Also the towels, though spark white, smelled just like moldy wet wood. Y'all i don't think I will stay at this hotel again unless I rally had no other option. One thing I did like was the large family who stayed here and were partying out, they were fun. Ocean inn...invest in your hotel just a little please?

My family was in the process of moving and needed someplace to stay while we were getting our new home in order. Unfortunately, I let my husband plan the hotel which won't happen again. Yes the view is great and the price is cheap, but there's a reason the price is that low. There's dents in the walls from people hitting things against it, no lights in the actual room (the spots for them were there just no wiring or bulbs), a small bathroom with a dirty shower and not enough towels, and the sink wouldn't drain properly. Not to mention the BUGS. I sent my husband to get ice and he said the entire room was covered in different kinds of bugs, which apparently move around fast because when we woke up the next morning they're were ants in our room and I found a roach CRAWLING ON MY LEG! I don't want to have to worry about waking up to find bugs crawling on me or my infant. Also, just a personal peeve, I know families can run businesses and teach their kids to take over when they're old enough. Having said that, making what appeared to be an 11 year old child run the front desk by himself isn't right. Maybe with help it would be okay, but putting that sole responsibility on a child of that age isn't fair. Let him grow up a little before you let him fend for himself..

This place is a hell hole. At night you can hear rodents crawling underneath the sink area and I woke up in the morning and found a dead mice on the ground.

At least there weren't bed bugs that's the only good thing tbh.. and the staff wasn't too bad. They were cool people. This place would be popping if they updated the rooms (beds included), hired an exterminator, and hired better cleaning services. I would only come back if I was desperate enough.

DO NOT STAY HERE. This hotel was disgusting. The only reason I kept it was because I got in at about 2 am and most hotels were booked out because of a big event in town. I have a very high threshold for low-quality hotels, but this place found my limit. The room was clearly not cleaned before I got in. Not even vacuumed. There were what looked like cigarette burns on the tub and sheets. It smelled bad. The turnover service consisted of putting a stack of towels on my unmade bed. I will never stay there again. My wife (who was not with me) was worried when I told her it even grossed me out. I wish there was a zero star option. That being said, if you like dive bars, the Ocean Pub is right next door. It's a dive bar, but I would have liked a clean room to come back to after the bar. The pub is the ONLY redeeming factor the hotel has.

Visiting Virginia from Arizona. Bundled this place with Priceline. As soon as we arrived the Manager threatened to shoot someone with a gun. We also saw blood all over the outside of the lobby door. We did not feel safe at the Inn, in the lobby, or even in the parking lot. I tried to fix things with Priceline and they were amazing. They tried to call the Manager to get a refund and resolve the situation as we had not even remotely checked in at all yet. The Manager refused to refund any amount of money. This is the kind of place you go to die. Please avoid this place at all costs. Stay alive. Your life is too precious to be wasted at a place like this.

The most disgusting hotel I have ever been to in my life. Nothing has been cleaned. Refrigerator has hair hanging from racks and a solid coating of black grime and some unknown spill that spans the entire side. Beds are comparison to a military cot. Bathroom floor is coated with a mix of sand and black grime. No matter how much you save it's not worth it.
