Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Virginia Beach (Oceanfront)

8/10 Good
"Shower head hardly had any power. Water came out very softly and slowly. Supposedly it was changed or fixed but I felt no difference. Very annoying to feel like you had to “catch” water?"

10/10 Excellent
"First time in Virginia Beach. The Schooner Inn is so well situated to enjoy the beach, boardwalk and local restaurants. Try the chef's burger at Big Sam's Inlet Cafe. The staff at the Schooner Inn was so helpful. The view of the sunrise, surfers, swimmers, walkers, bikers, and boats from my window and balcony never ceased to please."
