Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Virginia Beach (Oceanfront)
No amenities. Pool disgusting and closed thankfully. String foul odor in first room had to reassign. Won’t stay again .

Hilton Virginia Beach Oceanfront
It’s a beautiful hotel, but the staff wasn’t necessarily the most helpful and there were a few stains in our room. At the restaurant, the waitress seemed to be rushing my husband and I during our anniversary dinner. Kind of a disappointing trip.
