Overall Ratings & Reviews Surfbreak Virginia Beach Oceanfront, Ascend Hotel Collection

Hot on 8th floor as no AC working in hallways. Hotel has been renovated but lacks a luxury feel for the price of the room per night. No frills hotel but great views of ocean.

I love the staff! Cleanliness! Very comfortable stay. My family slept really well. Thank you so much!

Very slow check-in. Staff members were alright. Beds were very comfortable. I don't know that I'd go out of my way to stay there again, but I wouldn't actively avoid it either Average. Nothing spectacular, nothing awful.

The staff was very friendly & helpful. We really enjoyed our stay.

The room was nice and clean the house keep was on her job ever morning that we was there she made she we had everything restocked for our and the room was nice bed could of been a little bigger but over all was a good little get away for us we enjoyed it

Property was good

Ok service. Front desk had no uniforms. Restaurant was sticky and over crowed. Everywhere smelled of mariguana

The Surf Break Hotel was very clean and well kept but what really stood out was the excellent staff. From maintenance people, room cleaners, and waitresses in the Calypso, all were very good but the best was a desk man named Matt. He was very friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and professional. I will be back to the Surf Break due to these people!

We enjoyed out stay during the wk. The room was very clean and spacious. The staff was also very welcoming and helpful.

Great place. Clean and great staff

The upgrade type room we had was just like the pictures. That doesn't always happen. The room was pretty and clean. Very bright and open. A huge balcony plus another huge window..all ocean front. Matt at the front desk was great! Friendly and helpful. He seemed to like his job. Some of the others not so much. I'd definitely stay here again.

Great stay! Will be coming again.

Good Stay

Nice staff clean room

The beds were very uncomfortable, the toilet wouldn’t stop running, you had to juggle the handle for the water to stop running and AC unit condensation run off was running into the patio so when we sat on the balcony our feet were soaked with water run off from the AC. The overflow parking was full with people that had illegally parked there and “they were trying to figure that out” so I had to park in an undesignated parking spot because they couldn’t provide me with anywhere else to park. I did mention the toilet and AC run off to the front desk they said they would have maintenance come up but they never did. It had a good ocean front view, if you like looking at ocean with your feet in AC condensation.

At check-in there was delay due to the person at the desk not knowing how to do a few things and having to wait for different employees to come and help. I was sent to the overflow parking lot across the street to find that there was no parking available. However, an employee moved their car in the parking lot at the hotel so that I could have a parking spot. Also, the hotel has a weird smell in the lobby and hallways but the not in the room. Not the best experience for the cost but its a beachfront hotel so you're really just paying for location.

The hotel is older but right on the boardwalk with beach access right outside the back door. The rooms are updated. The room was nice and clean upon arrival. We didn't use our do not disturb sign but our room wasnt cleaned in between the nights we stayed. People had their garbage and dirty towels sitting outside their rooms on the hall floors. Hallways were not air conditioned and were very hot. One of the two elevators was down almost all day Saturday which was very inconvenient when hauling beach bags, coolers, chairs, etc. Back to your room. There's also no arrow signs outside the elevators on floors 2-8 so you never knew if the elevators were going up or down until it stopped and you asked the people on it. The pool area was very small but clean. There were maybe 10 chairs total and 2 tables. There's no parking at the hotel so you have to drop your stuff off and drive about 4 blocks away to park. The hotel parking lot was full by 3 pm the Saturday we checked in and check-in for the hotel is at 4 pm. Luckily, we had arrived around 1:30 pm and were able to get a parking spot while we waited for our room to become available. We had friends that arrived after us that were unable to get parking in the hotels lot as it was already full. The front desk staff were very friendly and pleasant. We were there for a long weekend and the bar directly next door had bands and djs throughout the day and night. It was loud at night so if you go to bed early that might keep you up.

Nice beachfront hotel. Quiet & room & bathroom was clean. Everything worked properly. Parking was a street over but not too far away.

Experience was ok besised a bug crawling on the towels in the bathroom

Everything was good no complaints
