Budget Inn Norfolk Va
Cleanliness - sheets and towels were filthy. We ended up getting our own to use. AC didn't really work. Door has large gap above floor letting in rain etc in.

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Virginia Beach (Oceanfront)
Everyone was nice. Room was nice. Great location. It was too cold to go to the beach and boardwalk. We enjoyed the view from the oceanfront balcony. The parking garage is a little narrow. Don’t recommend a large vehicle.
