The hotel has a great location, being close to the beach and various attractions. The staff is generally friendly and helpful. However, there are issues with hidden fees, particularly the cleaning deposit, and the quality of the rooms varies significantly.

    We had a kitchenette room - located on the 3rd floor. It was a walk-up. There were issues with the lock but we sorted it out. The kitchenette had no cutlery, no glasses, no dishes. No paper towels. No kettle - making tea in a coffee maker tastes badly. The air conditioner was very noisey. There were no drawers, not enough coat hangers. I had to ask for a second set of sheets and a pillow for the pull-out sofa. No hairdryer or iron/ironing board. And the shower curtain needs to be replaced. The water stains were highly visible.

    Friendly, Affordable, clean. You definitely get a bargain here. Everything works. Location is great. Parking is super convenient assuming there isn't too many people there. The family that runs the facility is friendly and kind. I have no complaints other than... maybe a night stand for the bed?

    This is a gem in the downtown area of Virginia Beach. I could not have felt more welcomed or taken care of. I wish I could have stayed longer! And the oysters Rockefeller at C D Shuckers, a block and a half walk nearby, were fantastic, along with the fun crowd! I hope to return soon.

    The front desk man was very informative on the best nearby locations and helped fix a toilet issue. The room was very comfortable and reminded me a bit of home. I assumed they would have silverware to go with the mini kitchen, but didn't. The deposit seemed higher than the last two places I stayed.

    Room was very clean, bed was comfortable, AC worked well. The check-in and check-out was quick, and there was ample parking. For the low price, we expected that the room would be basic, which was fine. The Wifi didn't work at all. In the bathroom there was no place to sit anything down or hang anything up. To the owner/manager: a suggestion for a very low-budget update is just to screw in a small clothes hook on the back of the bathroom door, and please include a hairdryer. That simple update would go a long way in convenience to the guests.

    I was not at all pleased with the fact that they advertise a microwave and the room and when I got there was told that I was not allowed to have a microwave. Also I was robbed out of my security deposit which was not mentioned in the price and they refuse to return it and also did not allow me the opportunity to have my room checked before I left. I was accused of smoking in the room which is not true I was told to leave my keys and they would check the room later that it would be okay and they kept my security deposit and refused to return it. I have had to file a report with about a business bureau and I'm also letting you all know that is not a place to have on your listing and not recommended by me. I will be posting on Facebook and any other social media to let people know Ocean cove is not the place to say. They are thieves and liars.

    I called 4 times prior to my trip to check in something and never got an answer or a return call to my messages. When I arrived, during office hours, no one was there, again I called to get no answer. Luckily,they came into the office as I was about to walk around the property to look for someone. They were showing someone their room. On our second day our beds were made and fresh towels left but the garbage wasn’t taken out and it was full. Again when I went to check out no one was there! Again I called and actually got can answer. I told them I needed to check out and was told just to drop my parking pass and key in the drop box. This would have been nice to know at check in. The location is great with everything near by, restaurants, store, shops and the beach with a block. There is a lot of noise as we were road facing-Pacific Ave which is busy-not the motel’s fault, just giving information for light sleepers. Read carefully the amenities, not much offered except a place to sleep close to the beach. It was clean.

    My prediction is they'll try to reply with their so-called "evidence" about our nonexistent/absent pet, but don't believe a word of it. They probably found a little pet hair on the floor from our clothes and figured they could get away with lying about us and keeping our deposit. Don't stay here unless you don't care about not getting your deposit back for bull crap reasons.

    Cons: it is not the most up-to-date place if you need refinement in your life. Little crowded, little older, nothing fancy. Pros: All the mechanical / building details are in place and working fine. A/C was nice and cold. Full size fridge and oven. Shower had none of the damage that I've seen in far too many other places, with cracks or loose fittings; everything here was put together and ship-shape. My room had a small view of the ocean. Quieter at night than I expected, but the A/C fan probably helped that. Wi-Fi strong as could be. Bed comfy and perfectly adequate. Very clean room inside and out, they swept the corridor daily. Zero noise from other rooms. I was able to work from the room and walk to entertainment, equally comfortably.

    This is our 3rd year in a row staying here, and again we were pleased. The location is great (only a block from the beach/boardwalk). Always clean & fresh, and for us the tile floors are much better than places with carpeted ones. Only negatives are that their the tub/shower is narrow, a bit tight (due to being in an older building). And in this room, our nightstand and bath vanity did not have any drawers. We will stay there again in the future!

    It was close enough to walk to most of what I wanted to do. Convenient for walking to the beach. Housekeeping and management seemed nice and fairly accommodating. Had a kitchenette but they didn’t have cookware (management let me borrow 2 small pans from his house that he wasn’t using) and you have to ask for plates, silverware, etc. due to covid but they do also have a grill in the backyard (you have to provide your own charcoal and lighter fluid). You may want to bring extra pillows because the 2 pillows they provided were a bit thin and when I asked for extras I was given a thick one so I used that pillow and my boyfriend used both of the original pillows. It is a motel so you will hear a lot of outside noise, and I heard my neighbor’s alarm go off at 8:00 every morning so the walls are thin too but I’m a light sleeper to begin with.

    Went out to visit my daughter who is stationed there in the Navy. I come from a housekeeping background, and honestly took bleach wipes just in case. This place was by far one of the cleanest motels/hotels I have ever stayed at. If you want an amazing location, great price, and clean, well this is definitely the place.

    Went out to visit my daughter who is stationed there in the Navy. I come from a housekeeping background, and honestly took bleach wipes just in case. This place was by far one of the cleanest motels/hotels I have ever stayed at. If you want an amazing location, great price, and clean, well this is definitely the place. The owner and son were so nice, and housekeeping were so helpful. This will be the only place we stay when we come back!

    Stayed here while in town for business. It was for 5 nights. Nothing special or over the top about the hotel. The room was very spacious, (although not needed) it had a small kitchenette. It was clean but not thoroughly, I did some extra cleaning when first checking in since I was going to be there for a few days. If I was only staying 1 night it would have been sufficient. The Co-owner (son and father team) who checked me in was super pleasant and accommodating. Overall, if you’re in Virginia Beach, this is a decent hotel at which to stay.

    To start with the check in was easy and the people were very friendly this is a no frills kinda place our room was very clean and the price for a last minute get away was great.It was a very short walk to the beach if you are older or just had a hip replacement maybe call ahead because in our case we were on the top floor and after walking all day in the heat I thought the 3 flights of stairs were going to do us in. So overall it was a good experience it was a clean place to sleep and we enjoyed our little getaway.

    Upon check-in Steve was very personable, polite and helpful in getting us settled into our room. Being an old building, the accommodations (rooms, linens,floors etc) were clean and comfortable. Steve was understanding about check out and let us overstay our parking arrangement longer, so we could enjoy the beach a little after sand soccer games were over. Comfy place, would recommend it to friends as its one block off the beach.

    I didn’t like the 3rd floor steps with luggage..there was no elevator. My bed was broken and it was so uncomfortable, I didn’t like the old smell due to the age of the hotel there was no phone to the front desk so my husband had to walk back down all the flights of stairs. I must say a great location and restaurants it was a walk across the street to the beach and the owner was pleasant at check in also it was clean for it to be so old. If they remodel I would revisit.

Big and clean. No carpet thank god! AC worked perfect! No mold or mildew smell. Small kitchenette with big fridge! Bathroom is small. Well worth the price. Will stay again!

    Lights by the bed didn’t work due to a faulty electrical outlet. No phone charging from the bed. One working outlet in the room to charge a family of phones. Not noise proof at all, there was street racing and fights outside until 3 a.m. No microwave and the fridge was on the floor. No elevator to transport luggage to the 3rd floor, this was awful.

    Location was perfect! Owner was super friendly, accommodating and helpful. Bath towels were soft and bathroom was clean. The major issue were the beds and pillows - mattresses in our room, at least, need to be replaced and the pillows were spent. The room seemed wet - maybe that's a beach thing, or the air conditioner, but we never felt dry, clothes, towels, floor as well. I would stay again because it is such a charming hotel with a wonderful retro feel, and it was the best location for the beach, boardwalk, restaurants, Walgreens.

    I am an honest person. I made my reservation at the last minute. Steve worked with me on resolving my situation and we had a good stay, he offered advice on good food, the room was clean and neat, everything worked, and I enjoyed the extras. Even good soap, good towels, and just a block from the beach ! The Boardwalk is great, there was a jazz band at the stage, and a convenience store close enough to be convenient. The lot next door is a parking lot, so no neighbors is even better, to me, other than the other guests at Ocean Cove. I liked it, my family was well rested, great hot water, and found a Japanese Buffet just over off Lynnhaven Rd. So, my stay was excellent !

    We stayed here only because it was pet friendly. When we got there we had to call someone to meet us to get our room because they dont live on site. After arriving we were asked to give 40 for a security deposit, that we wasn't aware we had to pay. The owner pretty much wanted extra money for every little thing. He even questioned my friend about the age of her children thinking she had someone else in her room. We had a visitor come from down the street and the owner even wanted their ID and tag number PLUS 15 dollars for them to visit AND 15 to park. Now here's the kicker, upon leaving he slides me a receipt and says "I need you to sign this." I asked what it was for, and he said a pet fee! He had already MANUALLY punched in my card info and charged my card 85.50 without my card, without talking to me and without my permission. If there was going to be any charges for the pet fee it should have been included in my total. Or better yet, stated that there would be an extra fee. This man and his wife are very unprofessional and rude, so unprofessional that when we checked in he got my friends ID and didn't return it until we all checked out. Remind you, we saw and talked to him several times on our stay because he was questioning the teenage kids about who they were. They never cleaned the rooms, we had to go pick up and drop off towels, the floors were nasty, the toilet took 3 times to flush and get it down AND the TV didnt work! I would NEVER recommend this place to ANYONE!!

    Our family wanted a large room with kitchenette that was close to the beach. Ocean Cove Motel was the perfect place! This little gem was clean, quiet and nicely furnished - it is not a brand new building but maintenance has been maintained and everything was in order. Steven and Steven Jr were very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay - they went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. We were, literally, a five-minute walk to the boardwalk/beach - right in the middle of everything! The wifi worked without a hitch and we even had free parking. We will stay here from now on when we come to VB. Cannot recommend this place enough!
