DO NOT recommend unless on a tight, tight budget.

Shower was BROKEN and not able to be used, had to scoop water out of bottom hose to bathe.

No pots or pans provided with suite kitchen, requiring last minute spending for pots and spatulas, etc because we came prepared to cook.

Dirty and dingy stains on the chairs that we didn’t want to sit in.

Bathroom and room were clean with good air conditioner. Pool was small, but clean and deep. Only one small trash can in the space, had to throw out trash in the dump out front.

While the concept is great…to have a full kitchen, etc, there were zero dishes/pots/pans/utensils to use. Dishwasher, awesome! But if you use it you have to supply your own dishwasher soap. You want to cook a meal and brought your own stuff…cool, except the burners were all trashed and didn’t work on the stove. We stayed one individual night due to a misunderstanding with our original reservation. Water main break the next morning so no water to no fault of theirs. Checked into our room for the remainder of our stay and the laminate flooring was beautiful, except every time you walked anywhere water seeped up through the cracks and the next morning staff tried to say it was from the AC, nope. They did give us another room promptly which was another suite which was nicer than the first thankfully. Still zero amenities. You get new towels when you take your dirty ones to the office. And it’s 2 towels and washcloths per day, at the beach. Sand getting dragged in? Yep! Had to go ask for a broom and dust pan to clean up instead of one being available, in a suite. It was last minute scrambling for a place to stay after our original reservation was canceled while we were driving from. 9 hours away…4th of July weekend with a week trip planned. We had ZERO choice but to stay here for the week. The google pics don’t look terrible. NOT what is portrayed. Paid almost $1600 to stay here and they tried to charge me $10/day to park in their parking lot. NOPE! Thankfully I only saw one roach

Y'all although I book last minute the hospitality was horrible. The room was completely filthy and hard to breath in. Do not stay if you have a severe allergy to dust. The AC appears like the filter hasn't been changed in years.

There were holes in comforter and bed was stiff. Don't be fooled by the price. You don't get what you pay for. I do not recommend anyone staying here.

The hotel is very well located, and that is undoubtedly its greatest advantage. It also has a very convenient parking area, which we appreciated.

However, our experience with cleanliness was very disappointing. From the moment we arrived, the room had a strong smell of marijuana. During the three days we stayed, housekeeping never cleaned the room or replaced the towels. In addition, when we moved the beds, we found the floor underneath to be extremely dirty and greasy, which clearly showed a lack of proper cleaning.

Another issue was the noise at night. On one of the nights, several guests were shouting and fighting in the middle of the night, including women arguing loudly. It was very disturbing and made it difficult to sleep. Unfortunately, no staff member appeared to intervene or address the situation.

Because of the poor cleanliness and the lack of control over disruptive noise, we would not recommend this hotel. While the location and parking are excellent, the hotel needs to significantly improve its cleaning standards and ensure a quieter, safer environment for its guests.

The owners and staff are extremely helpful here and the air conditioning will freeze you out in the summer (perfect for me!) Parking was secure and most things are within walking distance.

Where to begin? First thing is that they charged me a $30 parking fee that was advertised on the sight as free parking.
The room was dirty and dingy, mouse droppings in the closet, dirty scuffed floors, the stovetop did not work, coils not even fitted or connected, oven was filthy, chairs mildewy, 1inch gap on the bottom of front door to room allowing bugs to come in, bed linens were stained, the room looked not even close to the pictures advertised on the sight. Air conditioner in bedroom did not work, and was propped open by a piece of cardboard.

Was not offered any compensation for non working appliances, was argued with about parking fee, non working stove and lack of advertised amenities.

We checked in and on the walk up the 3 sets of stairs, I could tell this wasn't very maintained. Inside the room it was FILTHY. Looked as if it was never cleaned. Stained cupboards and floors. Filthy cloth chairs and couch. I immediately contacted hotels.com and after a 20 min wait they told us to contact the property. While waiting we noticed bugs on the floor. AI says they were cockroach nymphs. We immediately went to desk and were told that because we stayed for almost an hour that they couldn't refund the full stay. We packed our stuff back into the car and left. The place is horrendous. Do NOT be fooled by the pictures and location. A true roach motel.

WARNING: DO NOT STAY HERE! We left a day early because it was so gross and stinky.

I don't know how this place passes any kind of inspection in order to stay in business. The first room they gave us was rank with smoke. The second room we got had definitely been smoked in recently but not as bad as the first. The floors haven't been mopped in a long time. Our feet were gross from walking barefoot so we wore our shoes inside. The AC blew lukewarm air and could not be changed to a different setting or turned off. The covers on the bed were as thin as a sheet and not adequate. The water in the bathroom sink only dribbled out. The hair dryer did not work. The towels have been worn thin. The walls were thin and you could hear everything from next door. There were ducks swimming and pooping in the pool. Late on the first night, a Va. Beach local person knocked on our door and was surprised when I opened the door.

The pool had hair and cigarette butts in it. The room was NOT anything like what was advertised on Expedia. The whole place smelled like cigarette smoke. Nothing had been cleaned. Had to wait a whole day for towels. Staff was absolutely useless. The place was a sh!t hole and wasn't worth a free stay. Police even showed up to handle a disturbance. Couch was falling apart. Chairs looked like they had been chewed by rats and the upholstery looked like someone had sh!t on them. Wires were spliced and held together with PLASTIC BAGS creating a fire hazard. Front deadbolt would not lock, nor would the top extra lock. My husband and I probably got the hantavirus there. We most likely need rabies shots. This is the most disgusting place I have ever seen in my life. Do not book here.

We checked in. We walked up to our room. On the 2nd floor was a unkept woman in pajamas smoking a cigarette. We got to the 3rd floor and passed a room where the door had been kicked in(by the police a couple weeks prior). Dogs were barking and a guy was pacing and arguing with himself and poi ting at the wall. This place should be torn down. If I could have gotten a refund I would have. We stayed 5 minutes and checked out and went to another hotel. For what we paid here and the other hotel we could have stayed at rhe Hyatt.

Well at 12:30 the police was outside and a SWAT team ready to kick in doors. My kids were scared they had to hide in the bathroom because of the noise and them kicking the door in. No one from the office call to say stay in your room nothing they act like it was a regular old day. This is the first day when I checked in no toilet paper was in the room. To get toilet paper it took me calling the office over and over and over until they finally answer the phone.

Bloody towels with burns on them. Easy to hear loud neighbors. Dogs barking in rooms. Microwave didnt work. No coffee or soap to wash with other than hand soap on the sink. Very small parking area. Uncomfortable bed. Pretty much what you would expect for a cheap motel but with the luxury of being close to the beach and boardwalk.

SUPERB little beach gem

SUPERB! You can't beat the location! My bed was comfy. Plenty of parking. And HUGE room. I had a king suite, so I had a kitchen. Not fancy. If you want fancy, go elsewhere. This hotel is rundown, but the service is friendly and welcoming.
I travel with service dog and had no problems. There was nefarious shady characters hanging around...they don't bother you. Don't engage. The owner kicked them all out. Best time to visit? October thru Dec. Best rates.
I have stayed here before and this is my second stay with Alamar. SUPERB!

I knew the type of motel I was buying into, and it wasn't the worst I've seen. For what it was it was clean, A/C and fridge worked. We got locked out of our room bc the key wouldn't work and had to ring for help. We found out there's a privacy switch on the door lock that will lock out all keys except the master key. I would think it'd be beneficial to label it that way so lockouts at 2am don't happen. The whole vibe of the place and the people hanging around and/or living there just gave me and my daughter the heebie jeebies and we decided to leave and drive home early. I don't think we spent more than an hour total actually in the room. I'm glad I only paid $30 out of pocket for it, otherwise I'd be asking for a refund bc that's about all it's worth.

The Picture on website did not accurately represent real life. I had a difficult time finding my room as it did not have number on it. When I went to the room, the tub was dirty and the toilet seat was broken. I will not be going back.

Horrible beginning to good finish

My rating is based on the initial interactions with front desk staff and the first room (dirty need, no security door lock, strong cigarette smell, noisy neighbor, very dirty and stained chair, no working outlets). Also, it was a standard room, but my reservation was for a suite. The second room that they moved me to was perfect. Because of that room, I will stay there again if I can get that same room!

And, though I booked online, front desk staff tried to charge me $10 additional during check in for amenities such as the pool, which I had no intention of using during my 1 night stay.

Terrible

There was absolutely no parking, the room looked like it hadn’t been used or touched in years. It was disguising, only amenity that was given that was advertised was the outdoor pool and that was filthy. There was not one thing that looked like it did in the pictures on trivago or Expedia. Place should be shut down. The only pleasant experience was from the two night employees that checked us in. They were very helpful and personable.

Never again

When I was checking in ,they tried to charge me $16.00 when it said clearly on my reservation $10.00. TV wasn't working and they did fix it quickly. Someone had a big speaker blasting their type of music at the pool so loud that you could not get away from it. I called the office at 10:00pm to have them turn the muisic off. All they did was turn it down. I called at 11:00pm to find out when pool closed because now young children (10-12years old) were playing in pool yelling and screaming. I was told the pool closed at 10pm . I asked the person on the phone why people were still using the pool area when it is suppose to be closed.They made the people leave pool area and shut off music. My wife and I finally was able to go to sleep around 11:30pm. Not excepable. Will not be back.

This place was the most disgusting place I have ever stayed in . To sum it up , room smelled full of smoke, made front desk aware , they gave me an air refreshner . This was the only thing close to the boardwalk . They refuse to give a refund . Indian manager was rude , including his wife, tell me they have to wake up in the morning . Not to mention the guest next to our room was banging on the door cussing and fighting ! This MOTEL, is not fit for animals , I am going to report this place to the better business bureau ! What a shame !! Ps the pictures are nothing like the actual place DONOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME

The proximity to everything was great. This place is close to the beach. There are many shops and restaurants within walking distance as well. The bed was comfortable, and the shower was good. We called ahead to request an early check-in. When we got to our room, the bed was made, but the sheets were dirty. They had crumbs of food on them, which told us that the sheets had not been washed or changed from the prior guests. The bathroom was also dirty. There was a large streak of something down the mirror that easily came off. There were remnants of the soap discs that they gave out on the tubs surface, and the floor was dirty. This room was dirty. The woman at the front desk was more than happy to give us clean sheets, and told us to ask if we needed anything else. She also said the room would get cleaned the next day. That did not happen. We could also hear the beeping of a smoke detector that needed its batteries changed. I would not recommend staying at this property. I guess you get what you pay for.

Spend the extra $ for a better stay somewhere else

Many items in the suite broken and many things outdated. No working microwave, coffee maker and kitchen stove not in service. Not a very clean place either. Could not get extra towels or sheets. Had to bring the dirty bath towels to the hotel front desk for clean ones.

The staff was friendly, but that is about the only positive thing.

I loved how friendly the family was. They were very kind when we had to switch rooms and very patient . The only issue we had was the room we ended up with was invested with cockroaches. At night they came out and were all over our stuff. We had to shake everything out and wash before we went home. Otherwise really enjoyed the place. Just could be cleaner.

Excellent ...wish I was staying longer. I will go back. A block from the beach and in the middle of everything VA Beach has to offer. I arrived early, but the staff/owner was extremely friendly and made the utmost effort to ensure everything was to my liking. The room was huge and would have been great for an extended stay, as it had everything you could want or need. The pool was very clean and was popular with all the guests. Plenty of parking. The Alamar Resort Inn is a gem, and the staff is the best. Thanks again.

I booked a non-smoking room with a kitchenette so I could make meals during my stay. My room was not clean when I arrived, so I was given room 100. My keycard did not work for this room, so I was given a smoking room without a stove. The first night, I was promised I could switch rooms the following day, but the switch was delayed another day. The third day I finally switched to room 106, but it was in very poor condition. The shower was small and dirty, and there were stains on the shower curtain. The tiles were cracked and repaired unprofessionally, and the shower knob fell off when I tried to turn it. In the kitchen, only one burner actually worked, and similar to the shower the knob of the second burner came out while attempting to turn it. They included a backup plug-in stove, which was dirty, had only one functioning burner, and smoked heavily when heating. The dishwasher had a yellow wire sticking out of the front panel, so I was afraid to use it at all. Bedding is extremely thin and furniture is stained. It seems that some people use this place as a party spot, as people often walk around blasting loud music with portable speakers.

HORRIBLE Hotel. Zero Stars.

The hotel is not in good shape. The furniture was dirty and so was the pull out mattress. There were holes in walls and the shower did not properly work. The front desk attendant gave me a parking pass and said I could park on the street due to their parking lot being full, but I woke up to a parking ticket that cost more than the hotel. The next morning I was told it was my fault and there was nothing they could do. SAVE YOUR MONEY, do not stay here.

I would really like to say that the photos do *not* match the room I had booked. There cracks in the paint, grout stains, 'remodeling' that looked like it wasn't done professionally, and in the one room that looked even *remotely* remodeled there was water/condensation damage in the paint of the walls that looked like it hadn't been addressed for months. When I asked to change rooms they said they'd have availability in 2 days, they never got back to me. Mind you I stayed for 3 weeks and they did not tell me that they were turning off the water. They were working on the room above me that therein had leaked into the ceiling above me. Essentially my room looked like it was still being worked on though on the website it was said to have been \"recently renovated\". I would also like to mention the door to my room was missing a screw in the door's strike plate and the swing bar for my door was completely missing. All in all felt kind of unsafe. All in all not a very good experience aside from when my key got messed up they fixed it without fail every time.

Worst hotel ever! The place was filthy urine on the toilet seat when we checked in, cockroach came out of the shower drain. Room was supposed to have coffee maker, dishes, silverware etc nothing was in the kitchen. Wouldn’t have trusted to use them if they had been there. Trashcan still had trash in it. Some substance was globed on the bathroom sink and floor. Room is advertised as non smoking but the whole place reeks of cigarettes. Just gross.

White shower curtain was covered in dirt and mildew on the inside, so much so we showered with the curtain open.
Hot water in sink was off and handle did not work.
Fire alarm was off and missing parts , nightstand drawer was in pieces and all pieces were shoved in the hole where the drawer should have been.
Courtesy phone was broken with pieces hanging out of it.
Both bedspreads were covered in stains , clean white towels looked like someone had washed their cars with it.
Was not clean , did not feel remotely safe , people screaming at each other , extra parking is unlit , dirty ironing board right outside of our door.
Location is great though.

Overall is wasn't that bad could be a lot better the worst thing about the place is parking, they have 8 spots and if you are lucky enough to find one better leave your car the hole time in that spot or it's gonna be taken. Very close to the beach and shops that was nice, wasn't the best hotel but for the price can't beat it.

The place was filthy. Lights outside/all around building constantly flickering- not safe for someone with epilepsy. Beeping, defective smoke detector, stains on furniture, bed sheets and mattresses. Mattress looked like it was infested with bed bugs. Food smeared on microwave. Dirty half broken curtains that won’t close all the way. Toilet seat about broken off, be careful. Little to no complimentary essentials available. You could not convince me that the place had been cleaned. The pictures are absolutely nothing like the pictures. Not even worth 66$ a night. I wouldn’t stay even if it was free. Such a disappointment- ended up leaving and messed up my vacation plans where I had to search for a hotel last minute for a very expensive price, just so my son had a place that I felt safe, where he could sleep.

Worth it depending on the nightly rate

I got this last minute for under one-hundred-fifty bucks. The room was clean and renovated. There were 2 sets of towels and one small bar of soap, along with a small fridge. Pool is open ALL night long which is awesome, but a kid was screaming and playing in the pool until 4 am and no one did anything about it. Right on the beach by fun land. Excellent location and well worth the price I paid!!! Will definitely stay again. I wouldnt pay over 200/250 tho, IMO.
