Reviews for Jameson Inn & Suites Newport News

Review 1:I was disappointed when we checked in and were told that the indoor pool and hot tub were closed for maintenance. That was the main reason that we had booked this hotel.

Review 2:The room was very nice and comfortable. The location was good because it was away from main traffic ways.

Review 3:Well the pool was very misleading. That was one of the main reasons I booked there. The pool and hot tub liked like it hadn't been working for a bit. They should really take the pic off of there. Then on a king size bed the pillows liked like throw pillows.. then there was tons of broken bikes outside lol

Review 4:The staff was very friendly.. overall it was clean

Review 5:I didn't like the cooked breakfast food at all. I'm not one to waste food but I threw it out both times I tried it.

Review 6:Good location and facility.

Review 7:The pool nor the hot tub was available that was one of the reasons I chose to stay. But was disappointing . The bed pillows as very uncomfortable , The size .....

Review 8:Convenience ,Friendliness, economical

Review 9:The first room we were in had a toilet, shower and heater that weren't working. They were attentive to fix the first two though and moved us to a nicer room where everything was working when we asked. The breakfast is pretty lame, don't expect much. The pillows are too flat for my liking.

Review 10:The staff provided great customer service! Very attentive to any problems we had, which we had a few. They immediately fixed everything ensuring we had a good overall experience. The hotel was very clean! I'd recommend being on the 2nd or 3rd floor though, the first floor room we were in seemed really dark echo-y. 2nd room we were in was cozy and was a nice place to stay. Just a little far from the coliseum for us, but that was our own fault for booking a hotel late.

Review 11:Wanted to take breakfast to my room and was not allowed to because of food hoarding and major ant problems (even though the hotel offered room service). Looks like sink was glued in, sheets had holes in them, pillows were "couch" small pillows, batteries were rotting in the remote.

Review 12:Location, free wi-fi, free parking

Review 13:The pull out sofa was filthy. Their were stains that I do not want to think about what they were. There were stains on the pillows as well. The phones didn't work. We ended up leaving because we would never let our children sleep in a bed like that.

Review 14:The room was a bit dated for my taste.

Review 15:The location is conveniently located near eateries and shopping. Check in was a breeze and the room was functional for my one night stay.

Review 16:I really didn't like that some of the rooms was so bad to sleep in and that there wasn't any type of security at this location because there was strange men walking around the halls when there are children present. I really think that they can really use a serious upgrade with the rooms.I thought that my second stay would be different but it was so bad, and I will not be returning.

Review 17:Well I like that it was very convenient location to the stores and restaurants,and other sites.

Review 18:You could hear all activities going on in the rooms on either side and above....the staff was unhelpful and the room was old and had an odor and did not appear clean.

Review 19:Nothing

Review 20:Room could have been cleaner. Stray hairs on bathroom floor. Food particles on floor near baseboards and edge of bed. Minor TALCin bathroom. Removing old caulking and adding new. Brown staining along outer edge of tub and under sink. All easy repairs.

Review 21:Very comfortable. Desk clerk was awesome. Amenities were great

Review 22:The pool was too cold to use.

Review 23:The facilities were very clean and our room smelled nice which I liked. The hot breakfast was a nice treat with biscuits and gravy and waffles. The staff was super friendly and accommodating when we had a last minute cancellation for our last night's stay. They cheerfully granted us a full refund the unused night.

Review 24:four half pillows (12 inch by 12 inch) I guess that equals 2 pillows but looked pitiful. guests above us thumping the floor all night until 5am. Called front desk at 4am. The result was vindictive louder thumping. Awful. Hot breakfast of fake egg discs.

Review 25:location and price

Review 26:The staff is always very helpful. The location is just the right area for my business. The owner remembered my name even since its been almost a year since I've been there.

Review 27:Check in person seemed to be distracted, and the first two rooms she gave me each had a problem. After two failures, she seemed to get interested, and then found me a totally acceptable room. There appears to be no automated wake-up call system, and the morning I requested a call, it never came.

Review 28:Good value, nice place to stay once the problems were worked out. Breakfast quite good on weekend days, not as good (but still OK) on other days.

Review 29:there was a gas smell or some type of smell and the carpets need to be cleaned the smell in the room made my grandchild have an asthma attack. We stayed on first floor towards the back of the building. sings the upstairs floors may have been a little cleaner and a better smell but the staff was very friendly and helpful. I did find a piece of hair in the gravy near the biscuits at breakfast

Review 30:I didn't like how long I waited to check in and the chair in my room was severely stained. Also, the bathroom wasn't cleaned well. Breakfast items were scarce!!

Review 31:Friendly and helpful staff when I asked for directions.

Review 32:Room was not ready when I arrived after check in time; there was no closet in room; desk receptionist seemed bored; breakfast was disappointing

Review 33:location

Review 34:The display of breakfast can be setup a little better. And the some foods were burnt or over cooked

Review 35:I love the hotel in general. Love the room and the cleanliness of everything. I was happy with my stay

Review 36:Our bathroom shower looked like it had not been cleaned very well. The bathroom in the pool was not clean

Review 37:staff was very friendly and took care of our needs as they occurred.

Review 38:Didn't like pets being allowed, bed was uncomfortable and the room wasn't clean.

Review 39:We had access to the swimming pool until 10 o'clock and free wifi.

Review 40:Property could use some updating. Alot of partying going on...loud in areas. Our first set of sheets had a few stains and tears. Couch badly need replacing.

Review 41:Didn't seem particularly well kept. Dingy carpeting and stained shower stall floor. Needs updating and sprucing up.

Review 42:Excellent location and good surroundings.

Review 43:We did not have a bad experience. The room needed some tender loving care. Rug was torn and taped over. Bed skirts were stapled together. Window view was terrible - brick wall, air vents from laundry depositing "things", electric or gas meter and a down drain from roof. Beds were different heights. The price we paid for the room should have produced better facilities.It seems to be an older hotel that has had some updates but not all.

Review 44:The staff were great. Our bed comfortable and the air conditioner ran quiet. Bathroom was clean. Breakfast was sufficient but could have added a few more eatable items.

Review 45:The wifi was not reliable. When it was working, it was slow and I couldn't access certain apps. Also, I realized that the door does not close all the way unless I push or pull it into place so there were numerous occasions that my room was left unlocked.

Review 46:I felt like royalty staying in this deluxe suite. Everything was clean, appealing, efficient and I overall enjoyed my stay.

Review 47:Bed not comfortable and pillows were to hard that give you headache and the construction of the building is cheap, people about your room wake you up cause the floor is not solid i hate that.

Review 48:I like te location convenient to everything

Review 49:Hot tub closed on Sunday and even on Fri & Sat the water was cool at best

Review 50:Pet friendly, breakfast, to help with my recent knee surgery, we were given a suite (walk in shower, a couch and a large bathroom

Review 51:Terrible management. Not clean inside. Dirty floors and they didn't clean my room the second day I was there. No clean towels at all. Bad wifi which was unusable. Don't stay at this hotel.

Review 52:Nothing at all.

Review 53:The A/C unit leaked the whole time we were there and made the room smell like mildew. Also once I brought it to the front desk attention the young lady at the front desk was very mean. But everyone else was very nice.

Review 54:The hotel was close to every thing and great price for a holiday weekend.

Review 55:The pool!!!! Terrible they need maintence my boyfriend got sick becausetheir was way too much chlorine and/or chemicals in there. Thejacuzzi was Luke warm and the shower was a little weird as well.Housekeeper on the third floor was rude I asked her for a towel while onmy floor cleaning and she told me she didn't have any, when sheclearly had a stack on her cart. Had to go to front desk to get one justso I could take a shower. Also no nearby stores.

Review 56:That it was a smoking room, had cable comfortable bed.

Review 57:First room had balls of weave hair on the floor and cigarette burns in chair..second room had stains all over desk chair and long term occupants above us very loud...front desk clerk was a little rude when we called about maid service...continental breakfast was very lack luster, don't waste your time...will not be staying there again

Review 58:The distance to the venue

Review 59:Hotel was on the dirty side, pool light was laying on the side of the pool, jacuzzi did not work right, no hot water, staff was just ok, not overly friendly. First day, maid service did not even make the bed.

Review 60:Price

Review 61:First room was very dirty. Second room was better but not the best. There were bugs in room around the window. Then we checked out a day early before 6:30 am and there was a couple having a domestic dispute in the lobby. Wifi didn't work constantly either.

Review 62:Staff was nice

Review 63:the shower was dirty, could have been mildew from not being cleaned well. The curtains over the windows had holes in them. And people could see right in your room eye to eye if the window wasn't closed.

Review 64:the air conditioner worked well

Review 65:Had many key card issues, re-magnetized them about 3 times for a 4nights stay, lady at front desk didn't have a bad attitude butseemed annoyed to have to do it. Exterior window pane looked like it hadbeen shot. Odd but not bad smell. Door didn't close all the way byitself but locked. Bottom of shower curtain was dirty. WiFi was notgreat, I got the other hotels wifi signal more often than my own andwhen it did connect it was very slow.

Review 66:The bed and pillows were comfortable.

Review 67:1st cigarette smell/smoke everywhere - even in our non-smoking room 2nd we booked a double room but none were available so we were given a suite...the sofa bed was older than the building. and mattress looked like it should have been in the garbage-ripped in many places. 3rd. When we picked up mattress to put on sheets there were enough crumbs to make half a loaf of bread. Ok slight exaggeration but at least one slice. Wiered thing is bed was actually quite comfortable and seemed clean - that's why no sad face for comfort. Staff was very nice and did best to help us. We got a cot for son and it was a bit better than sofa. We only stayed because it was after 11pm

Review 68:We tried to take our belongs out of the room and had to do it by hand and then when we got to the exit out, a bunch of people block the exit. The people who did this had 2 cars blocking the exit while 3 other cars were waiting to unload.

Review 69:Cleanness of the room.

Review 70:Moldy shower,dust around baseboards,stairwell where I brought my dog through was filthy,peed in and puked in and had a bad smell.

Review 71:Got a good deal on the room.Reasonably clean,comfortable.

Review 72:When asking for extra towels this visit they were not as nice about giving them out. They said that the room was for 2 people that is why there was only 2 towels in the room. (they are the size of a hand towel) The towels are very small at this hotel and we always ask for more, never was a problem before this visit. We hope it will not be a problem in the future visits.

Review 73:We always stay at this hotel when we visit Newport News now. We have tried other hotels in the Newport News area and while some are cheaper the Jameson is a good value for the price.

Review 74:The bathroom needs to be clean and fix. Also the breakfast needs to have more meat and the eggs not good. Other than that the rest was ok.

Review 75:It was pretty close to my destination.

Review 76:breakfast area was not very well maintained. The light fixtures had webs and dirt hanging from.

Review 77:the room was very nice. Shower was not as clean as it could have been.

Review 78:I think it needed an overall update, but it would not deter me from staying there again.

Review 79:Staff was very friendly & helpful! Breakfast was good. Bed & pillows were comfortable.

Review 80:Shower needs serious upgrade. A little disappointed pool was unavailable the whole weekend, assuming for repairs.

Review 81:Staff were very polite and curteous. Room was very clean

Review 82:If I had to list something it would be slow elevator.

Review 83:Very comfortable bed, clean room, plenty of hot water. Great value for the rate paid, location was very good. Will be my go to location when back in town.

Review 84:shower head is terrible. spray pattern is very small and barely gets any part of the body wet. On the last morning with an early departure found there was no hot water at all at 5AM. Not sure if they shut down the water heating system for a period overnight but this was not acceptable.

Review 85:location and value

Review 86:The old elevator was creepy. The pool had too much chlorine. The alarm clock didn't work and our door was slightly broken.

Review 87:The hotel could use some upgrading. It was ok for the price. They try hard, they just need to remodel some things.

Review 88:No hot water when I tried to take a shower in the morning was NOT Happy. No WIFI called they said they were going to reset it and still didn't work was VERY Upset about this. Won't stay here again.

Review 89:The room seemed to be clean.

Review 90:The sheets were not ironed, they were clean but that was immediately noticeable. MAJOR PROBLEM: They are located at 21 Old Oyster Pt Rd, Newport News, VA. (One block over from the main road) The Main Street in that part of town is Oyster Pt Rd and so we rode around quite a while looking. Locals apparently were confused and offered us little help. A Solution: They need to advertise (signage) on the Main Street or have the city put up signage pointing to Old Oyster Pt Rd. Seriously, we were so weary, we were considering finding another hotel.

Review 91:The facility was well kept, quiet. Staff were personable. They offer complimentary replacement of essential toiletries, I forget to bring my toothbrush and they gave me one free of charge. Nice!

Review 92:it was too far from Williamsburg. It smelled moldy. The pool was dirty, there was mold spots all around bathtub. We chose not treat there because of conditions

Review 93:bed was pretty comfortable

Review 94:They didn't clean our room because our cat was there. Which should of been told at check in. Spa had blue dye and pool was in need of cleaning.

Review 95:Breakfast was plentiful with biscuits hard boiled eggs sausage gray coffee juices bagels muffins cereal oatmealgrits fresh oranges and apples. Cable wifi fridge microwave and staff were excellent.

Review 96:The carpets in the hallways and in the rooms were not clean. There were stains all down the second floor hallway and cigarette burns in the carpet in our room which was a non smoking room. The sinks in the bathroom had caulk smears. The corners in the bathroom were nasty... Just years of buildup.

Review 97:The staff was excellent. All of them were super friendly and accommodating. The cleaning staff did OK and were friendly. The common areas were clean and well kept.

Review 98:Pet friendly hotels should understand that it should not take 10 minutes to get a pet outside to go to the bathroom.

Review 99:Night desk staff was excellent. Very helpful. Day folks, not so much.

Review 100:Nothing, we loved the place!

Review 101:What a great find!! Friendly staff, clean room, free breakfast, great location AND reasonable rates! You just don't get any better than that!!

Review 102:They had a party going on that invaded the pool area and the lobby THAT WAS OUT OF CONTROL. The room was pretty dirty. The staff in the am was very apologetic, but it didn't change the fact of how the night time staff took care of the situation.

Review 103:I looked under the mattress and found debris hair and then a bug looking back at me still alive that looked like a tick under one corner of the mattress. My family and I immediately left the premis. The manager called later to tell me it was not a bed bug but looked like it was a tick.

Review 104:The room and hotel appeared to be very nice that is until

Review 105:Extra attention could have been paid to cleaning the shower/tub. It was clean but a little dusty. Per my norm, I clean everything when I get to a room anyway, so a quick wipe down did the trick. I think whoever was in the room before never used it and the cleaning staff just bypassed it altogether.

Review 106:I really loved this place. I stayed there for a couple of hours a few years ago for a class reunion, on my way to the Marriot, which is where I was booked for the rest of the time. I checked out thinking that I should have spent all of my time there.......When I came for the class reunion this time, I knew where I wanted to stay, hoping that the place hadn't deteriorated because it was no longer Sleep Inn. I was pleasantly surprised. The staff was so courteous and welcoming and the room was great.....so great that I was considering staying another day. Had a great time here and plan on staying again next summer.

Review 107:Staff were very accomidating and hotel was clean. Pool and hot tub were clean. Breakfast was amazing with lots of choices hot and cold. We will be staying here again when we visit Newport News area. :)

Review 108:Microwave was dirty. The beds were not comfortable and curious about how often the blanket & bedspread are washed?The breakfast was free but the biscuits were so hard that you could not cut with a knife. There was so much chlorine in the pool wondering when it was cleaned last.

Review 109:The price was the best thing out of the stay. The employees were very friendly and nice.

Review 110:We really enjoyed our stay and found very little to be critical about.

Review 111:Jameson Inn NN was an excellent value. The staff were friendly and eager to please. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable.

Review 112:Not at all the hotel's fault.. but someone clearly was smoking marijuana on the floor I was on. Someone took care of the smell really quickly though!

Review 113:The quality of the hotel for the price was incomparable. Everything else around is at least $50 in the same star rating range. I got an amazing deal from Booking.com, and I was genuinely surprised for the deal I got how amazing my room was!

Review 114:It wasn't perfect, but I wasn't staying or paying in a 5 star hotel either! I'd stay there again!

Review 115:It was a great room for the price! Close to everything I needed to be. Staff was friendly and hotel was quiet.

Review 116:I was given a room on a non smoking floor because the smoking room I booked was not available. I didn't mind because they gave me a ash tray. Howeverwhen I got to my room it was filled with the aroma of marijuana. ForFortunately I had my airspray with me.

Review 117:I enjoyed the room. I'm glad there was an microwave and a refrigerator in the room. I will definitely be coming back.

Review 118:The hotel staff wasn't very friendly. We selected this hotel because of the indoor pool and hot tub (particularly the hot tub), but for the first not it was not usable. We were disappointed with that.

Review 119:The price was good for the value of the hotel.

Review 120:Did not change sheets. Carpets in room would looked better if recently cleaned

Review 121:The updated furniture. The clean towels and washcloths.Very clean bathroom. Friendly staff. Great breakfast.Nice having elevators. Great parking.

Review 122:Everything about this motel is great. The location going in was a little unsettling but they have all kind of security and I felt very good about this after being there. Room, motel, itself, and staff are great.

Review 123:What was there not to like...5 Stars all the way!

Review 124:Everything from the courteous staff,beautiful & clean room & hotel atmosphere... Had a great weekend in the Oyster Point area & then to come back to relax in a wonderful room was exelarating.

Review 125:Showers are outdated Room smelled moist and musty Sheets were itchy Pillows were tiny Walk-In area to rooms are bigger than room Windows don't have screens Pool looked green

Review 126:Close to City Center Quick Check-In Free Parking Free Breakfast Food Deliveries straight to your room

Review 127:Breakfast area needed to be tidied up...tables needed to be wiped down. Woke up during night and hsf trouble returning to sleep due to noise from guests in floor above.

Review 128:Price and location

Review 129:Ordered a non-smoking room that smelled like an ash tray, had ash trays in the room. Whole building smelled like smoke, pool water was dirty, lights flickered, doors stuck shut or wouldn't open the entire way. Not a great hotel.

Review 130:Decent location in relation to where I needed to go. I've stayed in 4/5 star hotels for business, this was definitely not even close.

Review 131:The mattress in one of the room was sunked in. One of the helpers(JoAnn) in the kitchen was beyond rude. Constantly had to call the front desk to complain about the people over top of us.

Review 132:The general manager made us feel welcome. We were given another room to make up for the mattress in the other suite. The pool area was amazing.

Review 133:The bathrooms weren't very clean. There was hair inside the shower in one of the rooms and some mold around the tub in the other. They need to work on cleaning up the base trim in the bathrooms. We googled four star hotels and the Jameson Inn came up and definitely is not!

Review 134:We liked the location right off I-64. We had two rooms.

Review 135:That every time we went to the pool we had to wait for it to be cleaned. But the good thing is it only took about 20 minutes.

Review 136:I loved everything about the place the people was great, it was in a good location, and they had everything on my check list for hotels.

Review 137:Staff was never at front desk and had to be sought for check-in (10min wait) and when room key failed before scheduled check-out (2min wait). Cleaning staff disregarded Do Not Disturb and failed to lock door while we were away - returned hours later to an open, unlocked room.

Review 138:The inside lobby was very nice overlooking the pool that was cloudy and lots of bubbles like on the edge of a dirty pond... breakfast was worst than bad... no sausage or bacon and to top it off only boiled eggs.... you ask the staff if there will be any in the future all the answer you will get was "NO".... Will not recommend this location at all....

Review 139:From the outside it looked good and promising, HOWEVER!!!

Review 140:The breakfast was a joke. The furniture was worn. The elevator was dirty. The ceiling of the elevator was covered with clumps of dust.

Review 141:The bed was comfortable.
