It was an excellent place to stay. The staff was phenomenal. We did not have any issues at all. Their elevator was down, but they accommodated the residence extremely well. They had a staff member stay in the elevator and help residence to get to their floors. They did a great job in a really difficult situation. The view from the hotel is amazing The boardwalk outside is incredible. You just can’t get a better place to stay!

Property was clean and staff were friendly. The location was great. The hotel is dated though. I would come back knowing that the friendly staff makes up for the older hotel. They could upgrade their in room coffee to a better brand or have coffee in the lobby.

Good if looking for a value. Desk staff courteous. Parking easy. Pool is small. (Capacity 15). Restaurant/bar is only open til 8pm. Room was spacious but toilet would run unless handle is wiggled. We left do not disturb on door by accident and asked to have room serviced around 4pm but said the cleaning staff had left.

Well managed but old hotel

It is a well managed hotel. We were upgraded to a family room. The room was pretty old but other than that everything was great.

This was a budget friendly hotel during the off season. Im not sure how it would be in season due to only 1 elevator and small hallway at the elevator. Bathroom was small but the rest of the room was sufficient. Beds were comfortable and the balcony was good.

While the hotel maintained a commendable level of cleanliness throughout the property, several aspects of my stay were disappointing. The bed was notably uncomfortable, which made restful sleep difficult. Additionally, I found the hotel staff to be somewhat overbearing and intrusive when checking in.

Everyone at the front desk was very nice. We had 2 rooms, both were clean. My only complaint is the beds are very noisey because the mattress sits on a metal frame that creaks loudly. I still give our stay a 4 out of 5

I’ve stayed at a few properties on Virginia Beach over the years and none I’d go back to. However, The Capes is on my list of hotels I’d rebook. The rooms were clean; the property was clean. The indoor pool was warm and seemed pretty clean. They offer an on-site restaurant. I did not try this time around so I can’t speak to the food there. They also offer ample parking that is easily accessible. I guess if I were to offer one thing I’d like to see, it’d be a soap rack in the shower or towel rack on wall by the sink, nit picky but I figured I’d throw it out there. The staff was very friendly as well. Great stay!
