First visit to Cape Charles. Small charming town on the water w shops and restaurants walking…read moredistance. Pros: Small, quaint, 5 room place Well kept, clean w lots of places to sit. Clean community kitchen w coffee, tea, fridge, microwave Quick walk to beach across street 3 rooms w lovely water views + shared patio. Attached restaurant open for breakfast and lunch w a large sitting porch. Cons: Host owner seemed harried and rushed. With only 5 rooms wed hoped to be able to chat about Cape Charles' offerings B&B style. Cameras on the porch. We sit outside a lot so it felt like a real invasion of privacy. The no smoking signs posted shd be sufficient. Noisy (not the hotel's fault) but there is construction & a concrete saw going across the street all 3 days we were there. No water views in rooms 4&5 but a small water view on the shared porch. Shared porch would be nicer w a small planter or trellis between each room for a little privacy. Weak Wi-fi Wed stay again if Rooms 1, 2 or 3 were available.

Our room, 206, was very clean. That's the part that got the rating to a 3. The bed was very…read moreuncomfortable. In the morning, we went to breakfast at 9 am. There was nothing left except yogurt that was just sitting out in a bowl. I made the front desk aware and the man that had been standing there went to let the staff know. No response. No replenishing. No communication. If you are going to charge over $300 a night, care about your customers. Having stayed at boutique hotels here and in the UK, the skimpy breakfast option provided was disappointing.....well, it was nonexistent. Cereal and fruit were empty. I don't expect a European spread, but a simple continental breakfast was, in fact, part of the reservation. We finally just left. Post-survey, nobody followed up. Customer service was so terrible (other than the people working the front desk). The front desk team was helpful and professional. So, clean room and front desk team was great, comfort and customer service were nonexistent. Not a good experience AT ALL.

A perfect location with our room having a balcony overlooking the quaint street and ships on the water. Would prefer an in-room k-cup maker, but the in-room espresso machine was a nice touch just the same - just a little akward to get on to. In all, we will be back to Cape Charles.

I had a pleasant few days in Cape Charles. I stayed with friends at the Cape Motel. As a kid I was…read moreused to the motel 8 and this is no motel 8. Great motel location for a beach town with only a few minutes away from the downtown and beach. The motel had the cutest rooms with a walk-in shower and bathroom. The room even had direct tv and proper air conditioning. The only thing that I wasn't pleased about was the bed not being as comfortable as I wanted. I just wish I was able to stay more than a night. A pool and bar is only a few steps away. What more could you ask for. I would love to come back and stay here in a near future Cape Charles visit.

Checking in was super easy, and we were greeted by two adorably friendly doggies! The people who checked us in were super friendly. Housekeeping was a dream. I happened to be outside smoking, when they came out from cleaning another room just to ask "did you need anything? Any extra towels while I'm up here?" UMMM HELLO ATTENTIVE! Love it. Hotel itself was cleaner than I thought. I used to clean houses on the side, so I'm always super judgmental about where we stay, and when I tell you every corner was spotless, I mean it. Huge fridge. New microwave, and great counter space. Full kitchen, with everything you need. This will be our go to everytime we come back up here. Pet friendly, and my dog loved it!

Worst night of sleep awaits you a 3-S hotel. Could not recommend this place to my worst enemy…read more The room wasn't dirty, but the bed was worn out and ultimately left my girlfriend and I in serious pain the next morning. The bed was so bad, I actually debated sleeping in my car. When I finally tracked down the manager, he could not have cared less, and actually was quite condescending, telling me to contact "Booking.com" if I had an issue.

Probably the most DISGUSTING hotel I've ever stayed at. My husband and I came here for memorial…read moreweekend and I really regret staying at Kiptopeke Inn. The room we're staying in is really run down. Didn't look like anyone cleaned the room, the tub has a HUGE disgusting stain on it, there were flies and a BIG OL SPIDER. Unfortunately we don't have anywhere else to go since we already paid. We had no choice but to go get a bottle of lysol and disinfect the whole entire room. If the room wasn't bad enough, on their website it said they had a pool and free continental breakfast but I was just informed that the pool wouldn't be opening until some time in June (it's literally memorial weekend so it's crazy that it's not open) and they don't have the continental breakfast until some time in June as well. This is FALSE ADVERTISEMENT. If they only have breakfast during certain times of the year then say that on your website. If the pool isn't opening memorial weekend like 99% of other hotels do, then say that! Don't waste your time at this place. I'm sure there are other better hotel/motels to stay at around here.

Since I didn't need to be at my conference in Virginia Beach until Monday, I figured I'd spend a…read morecouple of days in the Kiptopeke area to get some fishing in. The choices were camping or staying at a hotel. I didn't feel like loading my car up with camping, fishing and trade-show stuff, so I checked Yelp for reviews. Sunset Resort didn't have anything available, but the Kiptopeke Inn had plenty of rooms open and was comparably priced. The rooms face outside, and my first impression was, hey this is where Earl (My Name is Earl) lives! The room had an identical set up. Tip: Be sure to fully close your curtains or what happens in your room is there for all to see. Nothing special about the room other than there is no bedside clock. I had my cell phone, but it is always nice to wake up, roll over and see the time without having to pick your phone up. There is a microwave and a fridge in there. Flat screen TV, although it is satellite TV, so the channels are limited and some are kinda fuzzy. No plates, napkins or utensils in the room. The pool looked nice, I didn't swim, but it was nicely lit at night. So why the two stars? Well, first of all, this is a $70 per night hotel. I paid (with fees and taxes) ~$150. The breakfast buffet is woeful. Several mini bagels, a few pastries, some mini muffins in plastic and not much else. Yeah, there was coffee and juice, but the cups aren't much bigger than shot glasses. I overheard some other guests say the hotel wasn't ready for prime time and that they had no hot water in their shower. At least mine was ok! After I was out fishing all day, I came back to take a shower and found although my bed was made, they hadn't replenished the tiny shampoos. After my shower I went down to the front desk to get one so I would be able to wash my hair in the morning. They were out of them (which is probably why they didn't resupply my room). To their credit, I found two shampoo containers outside of my room in the morning. So, overall, if this had been a $70 per night place, 4 stars, because my expectations would have been in line with the price (value). But given how short they fell compared to a Marriott at the same price, there is work to be done. I wouldn't dream of staying here again at the current price.
