Everything was great with the exception of the remote to tv needs to be replaced. Sofa was ok but could be softer. The rooms were very clean when we got there. The host had great communication with us.

Best kept secret

This condo exceeded our expectations with the size, cleanliness and amenities. It felt like home away from home and the ease in access to local attractions was a plus. We Will definitely try and book it again during our next visit to the Tidewater area.

Great host, accurate description of property, perfect stay. The condo was easy to get in and out of and close to the highway. The coffee shop is in the same building and the micro brewery was super close. Will definitely stay again when in the area. Thanks again!

We Turned right Around When We Saw The Roach On The Bed

There was a roach on the bed when we first checked in. We stayed for no more than 5 minutes and went to a hotel.

The place was mostly clean. One of the bath mats was pretty old and maybe dirty. But otherwise it was clean and organized. The bedroom was MUCH darker than the pictures. The couch is very uncomfortable. The biggest issue was the amount of noise that came from the upstairs unit. Even with the white noise machine on the stomping and water noises in the middle of the night were impossible to sleep through. There was even a night when there was so much screaming that we thought about calling 911. The idea of it being close to great restaurants, etc. was not our experience. Maybe it was the time of the year but everything was empty or closed. Over all our stay was fine but did not live up to our expectations. We needed to go elsewhere for night life and good food. If you just need a clean place to stay and you will not be spending much time in the area then it’s probably fine.

This place was amazing, I love the rustic look it gave. Karl was great at communicating with us from start to finish. This was my husband and mine get away before he got back on the road so we just wanted some alone time. Only issue and it was a big one was the AC wasnt working. I called Karl and he responded in a timely manner and made arrangements to have it fixed that day. Unfortunately, it stop working again and since it was just for two night stay we managed through it. However, again Karl responded and said he would have it fixed, i told please just wait til we left to avoid the rest of our stay interrupted. Please note the view is a shipyard but we didnt care. The area was nice and a couple of eatery to indugle in including a Whiskey Distillery. Overall dispite the AC issue I would come back again. Execellent experience. KARL you are the best Host.

Needs Improvement

Check in was very easy. Location was great. Place looks exactly like the pictures online. Unfortunately I can't give it 5 stars. We checked in right at 4pm. At first glance everything looked great. As we started checking to make sure it was cleaned to our standards we noticed the couch had pet hair all over it, the rug had a stain on it, the floors had not been swept and the bedding was not clean. We contacted the host, he responded immediately. A cleaner was sent to take care of the issues. However, this was our first time using VRBO to book a stay so this was a complete let down. The price point would have been fine if the unit was properly cleaned. We picked this place to avoid filthy hotels, so you can see why we were disappointed. A better cleaning crew and this place could be great. If not it'll go downhill in no time. Good luck!

Amazing loft/condo

This is a diamond in the rough. The location couldn't have been better. Had a brewery right next door and great food close by. Condo was very clean and newly renovated. Loved the industrial feel of the place. Everyone we met in the area was great. Highly recommend this place. You won't regret it.

My wife and I and our 4 children live in Virginia Beach. We are a very active family of 6 that loves to travel. Our family's favorite places are the mountains and beaches of Virginia! We enjoy all the experiences that Virginia Beach has to offer. From the beaches and boardwalk to the restaurants and nightlife of Town Center and everything in between, you are sure to find what you are looking for. We absolutely enjoy this beautiful East Coast resort town. When we want to get away we head for the Blue Ridge Mountains. We can unwind with hiking, wineries, breweries, snow tubing, skiing and so much more. There's no shortage of things to do or adventures to find for our on-the-go family. When you stay at one of our homes we take into consideration everything a group like yours needs. Whatever makes our stays more enjoyable and memorable we make sure to include. Thank you for choosing to stay at one of our favorite spots!
