Staff was amazing. I called saying I would not be in until late. Their front desk is normally closed at that time. On the phone he told me when I got there to dial on the phone and someone would come up to the desk. Told them what time I would be there and he was at the desk waiting for me and chuckled I was 6 minutes early. Such geat service!

We stay at the Bay Inn everytime we come to Norfolk. It is clean, quiet, and 2 blocks from the water. There is an adorable courtyard where you can sit in the sun and read or just relax. It is affordable and exactly what you need as a home base for the adventures that await in Norfolk.

This was an older property but the room was newly renovated, clean and comfortable. I liked the courtyard style and view. Staff person was nice. Neighborhood a little rough around the edges but seemed there was good food and it was easy to get to.

This might have been the cleanest hotel in which I've ever stayed! The hospitality of the staff in unparalleled. The bathroom was newly updated and the water was perfectly hot with excellent water pressure. Fast Wi-Fi and TV in room. It was so nice to have a working refrigerator and freezer, as well! Coffee maker in room that was well-stocked. Seriously couldn't ask for more, especially at such an excellent price in a perfect location!
