I orginally found this hotel by accident a few years ago. From my very first stay to the last one..I love the Surfside! I stay there 2-3 times a year. On each of my visits I found the staff to be extremly helpful and friendly. The rooms are always clean and I am a tough one to please. when I... more

My husband & I stayed at the hotel for an entire week. We were with a group so we had already paid and were kind of stuck! Otherwise, we would have left the minute we saw the room! The elevators did not work properly the entire week, the vending area, ice machine, hallways AND room was filthy. They advertised that... more

The only good thing about this place is the location. Three of us spent 7 nights here and we tried to stay around as little as possible. We paid an average of $200 a night for a standard 2 bed room, we expected better. The place is filthy. All the carpet needs to be replaced madly. Walls and wood work... more

We spent 3 days and two nights at this hotel with two children (6 and 20 months). When we first arrived my husband and I both just looked at each other. But surprisingly the rooms weren't as bad as the hallways. The room itself was ok. The air conditioning would not turn off. But after talking with the front desk... more

Our hotel sits on the oceanfront and parking is often at a premium in the resort. Anyone who has been at the beach is aware of that. We have many problems with the surfers, beachgoers, people wanting to walk the strip, and many others that pull into the parking garage and just leave thier cars. When our guest then try...

We spent 2 nights at the Surfside with our kids (8 and 14). The hotel is old and worn, but seemed clean enough. The room was small -- a tight squeeze for the four of us and our luggage.Unfortunately, we had several problems -- all fairly minor, but together made the stay difficult. In our room, 2 lights were not... more

My husband, myself and our two kids ages 9 and 5 stayed at the Surfside Oceanfront Inn for four nights. Overall we had a very pleasant stay. The hotel is clean. Our room had two queen beds and felt a little bit cramped. We may try the suite next time. However, we left the room in the morning, spent the... more

Our two day stay at the Surfside, was completely enjoyable. For a beach hotel, this establishment hits the spot. If you're searching for a reasonably priced and efficiently run hotel, with slightly above average accommendations, this is the place. If you're looking for the Ritz-Carlton type hotel, this is not it. Surfside is a family-oriented establishment with a friendly staff.... more

Overall, our experience at the the Surfside Inn was great! I didn't search around for the best price but it was ok. We really loved having a balcony facing the ocean!! During the evenings, we would break out a six pack and some wings and enjoy the view. Our room was comfortable and the A/C was nice and cold. We... more

Right on the beach. Beautiful oceanfront view. Friendly Staff. Clean room. Now for the downside...AC didn't work, reported to front dest, repair man came immediately, did something to AC unit but it still didn't work so they brought us a fan. I asked another couple on the beach if their room got cool enough and the answer was no. They... more

We were having a heat wave during this guest stay. The A/C was having a hard time keeping up. The heat index was 113. This area is not accustom to that type of heat. The average temperature for August in Va Beach is mid 80's. I am very sorry this guest was uncomfortable. After the season we are going to...
