Comfort Inn & Suites Virginia Beach - Norfolk Airport
Much older than the photos make it look. Shower barely worked. We paid for a suite with a pull out bed but was told it wasn’t available when we checked in. Front desk clerk didn’t care one bit. However, the breakfast was great and housekeeping staff was very nice.
