Reviews for Mulberry Inn and Plaza

Review 1:Half block down from a strip club but like I said, it was right off base. I probably shouldn't have been surprised but I was.

Review 2:Attended a swim meet on base. This was literally right outside the gate. Couldn't have been any closer.

Review 3:Our room was at an end by the stairwell so it was noisy when people left. The game room was very hot and we had to prop the door open to cool it off. Didn't get to try the breakfast because we overslept.

Review 4:The room was clean & the bed and pillows were comfortable. The staff were nice. The area seemed quiet & safe. Very nice place to stay!

Review 5:Our experience was great. The only thing was that I was promised $2 back upon returning my room keys and I was never reimbursed....but it's only $2- no big deal.

Review 6:Everyone was very nice....I also never heard of a theater room so I thought that was unique.

Review 7:I wish the pool was indoor for usage during this season.

Review 8:Everything was there for your entertainment. The Pool table, swimming pool, movie room, exercise rooms, breakfast, and pleasant staff.

Review 9:I loved my stay that is why I have checked in October, November and I am getting ready to book for December. Your Inn is well kept secret but don't worry word of mouth spreads quickly.

Review 10:There was nothing I did not like about the Mulberry Inn & Plaza. I plan to stay there again on future business trips to the area.

Review 11:Friendly staff. Clean, comfortable and quiet room.

Review 12:We booked an "executive" king room but when we arrived our room had one double bed (which they called a queen). I asked the front desk to move us to a king room and she said there were none available. She was able to give us a room with two doubles which was acceptable.

Review 13:Great location, friendly and helpful staff, decent room for the price.

Review 14:This place was a pleasant surprise! Very reasonably priced, clean rooms, good breakfast, movie theatre and nice workout rooms. Would definitely stay here again!

Review 15:Our tub was clogged with hair, the room wasn't completely clean, and the walls are paper thin. The equipment in the cardio room is worn out and the bike doesn't really work properly. The lock on the door didn't work. If catering to the military and their families, it would be appreciated if you'd update the property a bit.

Review 16:The location was perfect for us, as we were visiting Ft Eustis, and the fitness room was fantastic. We had a standard suite on the ground floor and were able to park right outside our room.

Review 17:Nothing negative to say. We really enjoyed our stay.

Review 18:Staff was helpful, the room was quiet and clean, roomy and very comfortable. Breakfast was first rate, pool table, fitness facilities, movies--wonderful value!

Review 19:No elevator so might not be the best for people with disabilities who can't do stairs but was only 2 floors so worked for my family and friends

Review 20:Close to Fort Eustis. Breakfast included.

Review 21:I wish I knew there was a "closed" season for the pool/hot tub. Was really looking forward to those after 21 hrs of driving nonstop to get to Virginia.

Review 22:We were SUPER close to Ft. Eustis which was wonderful for attending AIT graduation.

Review 23:The shower curtain rod in our room had come away from the wall so the curtain kept sliding open getting water every where.

Review 24:The room was very clean. Everything was good.

Review 25:Great place to stop with a pet-lots of space to walk a dog and great space in the room for one. Very lovely staff-friendly and helpful. Easy to find and close to restaurants and gas. Easy return to I64.

Review 26:The motel was centerlly located off route 64. The room was great and breakfast was good. We traveled to Virginia beach and sorunding points of interest. We stayed for 6 days and had a great time. Don

Review 27:Only glitch, being in a different building, they had forgotten to turn on hot water until we let them know. Then they quickly corrected it! :)

Review 28:We thought the décor a cut above and the size of the room a little larger than some. Very clean, extras. It was a cut above in many ways but with a better price than most in its class.

Review 29:To take breakfast we needed to make a line of 10 minutes. Wifi does not connect to mobile devices. Bedroom smells like old and humid carpet

Review 30:The staff was nice.

Review 31:We arrived at the motel at 9pm on Saturday night to find that our door wouldn't lock. We had to pack everything and move to a different room at 9:30 pm with a sick 7 yr old.

Review 32:The Wifi and breakfast.

Review 33:We did not like our original room which was the two bedroom suite with a kitchen. The staff was very accommodating we had no problem switching rooms.

Review 34:The staff was friendly the location and price was great. We stayed in the old Holiday Inn Express.

Review 35:I have no complaints

Review 36:ThIs hotel is very clean and we'll maintained The staff goes out of their way to be helpful The location and price is excellent!

Review 37:Our first room had a bit of a musty smell. Upon calling the front desk, we were given a new room that was fatastic.

Review 38:Very clean, staff was extremely friendly and accommodating.

Review 39:Poor service, filthy carpet, over charged my account for 2 nights, we were put in smoking rooms because they couldn't find our reservation, general manager yelled at me and refused to compensate me then she hung up on me.

Review 40:nothing

Review 41:The description of the room on the reservation says, double room, not double bed, for a family of four is very confusing and disappointing.

Review 42:Not too far from The Busch Garden... Worth the price.

Review 43:Staff was awesome!! Tiara at front desk was really nice and professional. I enjoyed my stay. I like the quiet location and cleanliness. The amenities were awesome for a family. I would definitely stay again!

Review 44:The only issue I had was the internet was a bit dodgy but after a bit of time I was able to get on.

Review 45:The hotel staff and facilities were very nice for the price. I was visiting Fort Eustis and the hotel is only a couple minutes from the gate. I would recommend this hotel to anyone that is visitig Fort Eustis.

Review 46:Wifi was slow.pool is closed on mondays.small breakfast area

Review 47:Staff were very cheerful. Room was nice and clean,stayed in plaza building. Nice pool area.

Review 48:Next to wooded area had a lot of bugs.

Review 49:The king room with kitchenet was very spacious. My kids had room to move around. There was even a kitchen table.

Review 50:Suggestion to have a larger trash can in the room. All else just perfect.

Review 51:Excellent accommodations. Staff very nice and helpful. Delicious breakfast and hostesses very, very nice. Well pleased with everything. Great signage directions from interstate to hotel! Thank you for an excellent experience.

Review 52:My room had an odor that I or house keeping couldnt get rid of. The theater room also had a foul smell.

Review 53:For the most part it was clean and the staff was nice. Also, conveniently located near the parks. Loved that they had a theater room. Kids loved the pool. Breakfast was cool as well. Saved me money.

Review 54:The room was compact but fabulous! Wonderful bedding, very clean, every amenity! Best place we stayed on our trip. (and we stayed in a different type of hotel each night) First time driving the area, so the easy location was also a perk.

Review 55:The bed was a little hard in my opinion but you can't please everyone on something so subjective.

Review 56:Received stellar service. The staff was friendly/polite and helpful. We paid the extra $10 to stay in the executive building (formerly, the Holiday Inn Express), everything was safe, clean, and fully operational. It was close to Williamsburg without the Williamsburg prices. Breakfast was surprising. I expected cereal and donuts but they served a full on hot breakfast.

Review 57:The rooms are located in several different buildings which isn't a huge issue, but just wasn't expected. The stairwells and vending areas are not air conditioned.

Review 58:24 hour concierge was helpful since we didn't know when we would arrive. The buildings are all secured with keycard entry. Staff was polite and friendly.

Review 59:We had just left a big concert and i was super tired, she had everything ready and even mad sure we had a bottom floor room! If I'm ever I'm area again I will stay!

Review 60:Breakfast hot foods were terrible. Spilled cereal in stairwell there for 2 days. Staff not very helpful in giving directions to restaurant we asked about.

Review 61:Location price

Review 62:We were traveling to watch our grandson compete in a Lacrosse Tournament and were very pleased that we were so centrally located. Another grandson is looking into attending William and Mary College next year I'm sure we'll return.

Review 63:We were on the first floor, and the front door to the room doesn't like, fit well into the door frame so you can hear everything outside. There was a huge thunderstorm one night and it was so loud i swore the shower was on.

Review 64:The room was clean, a great value and comfortable. Outdated tv but not a huge deal. Breakfast was good, pool was nice.

Review 65:The location wasn't fantastic. It is next door to a gentleman's club. However, trees and a fence keep it hidden away and nobody from there hung around the hotel, from what I could see. Parking is slim, for the executive suites, if you get in late. There are no power outlets in the kitchen area so the coffee maker has to be used on the desk and the iron/ironing board has to be placed awkwardly around other furniture.

Review 66:The beds were comfortable and everything was clean. We did not use the pool or eat breakfast here so I cannot comment on those.

Review 67:The pool has no stairs and is painted smooth and slick around the sides, be careful getting in and out of it!

Review 68:The staff was very accommodating even though we arrived very late/early (4 am). They did everything they could to keep us comfortable and happy. Many kudos to both the day and night staff. We very much enjoyed the movie room and played some pool in the main hotel area as well.

Review 69:Hot breakfast, so so, powdered eggs and microwave sausage. They do have a waffle iron, yogurt, fruit, and muffins and toast.

Review 70:The staff members are excellent, we've been there about 8 times over the past 2 years (Busch Gardens/Williamsburg visits) and they have all been pleasant and helpful!

Review 71:We booked on line and it stated queen beds. The hotel only had double/full size beds so that was a little disappointing.

Review 72:We were visiting my daughter at Fort Eustic and the hotel was very convienient to the fort at well as the beach and quite a few historical sites.

Review 73:When we got there, the couch was really, really dirty with stains all over the cushions like it had not been cleaned in weeks.

Review 74:I like the size of the room, the breakfast, the staff and the facilities.

Review 75:No elevator, making a trip with children and all of the accompanying luggage difficult. Business center consists of a desk and computer, so don't plan on having a quiet place to work. Breakfast is low quality. No freezer in the mini-fridge.

Review 76:Room was clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable. The shower was large and with a nice shower head.

Review 77:Room was musty and very damp!

Review 78:Great breakfast and staff was friendly except for one manager when Iarrived. I had issues cause she said my card wouldn't go throughbut when I went down the road 5 min later to get money and gas itworked for both. Plus she tried to charge me more then I was supposedto be charged.

Review 79:That we had to leave ,we attended my son's graduation from fort Eustis there is not a closer nor better hotel

Review 80:Welcomed immediately we where seven adults one small baby we all became ill used four thousand towels and bed sheets over three days ,the staff so understanding it was heart warming

Review 81:I loved how close this place was to fort eustis. I traveled out to see my husband who is stationed there. The mulberry was so comfortable and I felt like I got more than my money's worth! It was very comfortable and the breakfast was the best I have had in a hotel!

Review 82:The tub was kinda loud,pop pop Crack as u took a shower.

Review 83:Location,comfort of bed.we were there for my soliders AIT graduation....the kids loved the pool and the game room!!

Review 84:Although I booked my room a double bed with a kitchenette a month and half in advance they put me in a standard room so they had to find me the room that I previously had reservations for other than that its a great facility!

Review 85:Everything was perfect the housekeepers made sure we had what we needed and kept our hotel clean for us and breakfast was great

Review 86:The bathroom is VERY small!

Review 87:My family and I enjoyed a nice quiet, long weekend here! We all really enjoyed the pool, and really liked that it was open late because that meant that we could still swim after a day of being out and about seeing different things in the area.

Review 88:The rollover bed matress had big urine stain ,atleast get some mattress covers. Also i didn,t like the way they leave the rollover bed outside the door exposed.

Review 89:The pool table and movie theatre though small good for the kids.The kichenette was okay .

Review 90:We liked everything from the room to the friendly staff (Especially Mary). The location was close to everything we wanted to do and even found a few gems we didn't know about.

Review 91:The room needed some maintenance. First, there was a gap all the way around the door and the door frame. You could see right outside. The shower curtain rod was barely hanging on the wall, One outlet cover was broken and just barely covering the receptacle. These items were reported to management and I hope that they fix them.

Review 92:The staff were great to deal with. The room was clean and the beds were not as firm as I would like, but not bad.

Review 93:Tv had poor picture appeared to be going bad cotacted front desk was informed tech would be in at 8pm we left for dinner returned at 9:15 only to find nothing done to fix the problem other than that this is a good hotel.

Review 94:Beds were great,staff was friendly.

Review 95:The pillows

Review 96:The staff was very friendly. The cleaning staff visited our room to inquire if we needed anything and if the room was acceptable. The breakfast was delicious.

Review 97:My room was Clean and quiet. The shower was great and had plenty of water pressure and hot water. I felt safe staying there. The front desk staff were friendly and nice and greeted you like a friend. Will stay here again.

Review 98:If you change your Do not Disturb status, inform to cleaning staff of your status.

Review 99:It was clean, close to shopping, and located on a main artery. We intend to stay again next month!

Review 100:We had hoped that the pool would be open, but understood it was before the season started (early May 2015)

Review 101:We loved the location, close to everything. The Staff was very helpful and friendly and went out of their way to accommodate our needs. We are planning to stay there again over the summer to visit Busch Gardens.

Review 102:I paid for a room with king size bed, when I arrived, I was given a room with double beds. When I asked about price difference I was told since I went thru booking.com, there would be no refund.

Review 103:Very friendly staff. Convenient, clean

Review 104:Had two issues: Heat had not been run and maintenance had to come in an vacuum unit out due to smell when turned on. Toilet needed flapper replaced because it drained every 5 minutes. Minor inconveniences because maintenance had it fixed in 20 minutes from when they first arrived

Review 105:Right off the highway and staff was very very nice & pleasant.

Review 106:We were treated like family at this place. The sales manager Sarah was INTRUMENTAL in helping me set up my fiancé's birthday surprise. The staff goes above and beyond all things imaginable to accommodate. Big property, convenient to Williamsburg (15 min). Super big rooms. Comfy beds. Clean.

Review 107:The older tv,some channels didn't come in that clear

Review 108:The location was great! Very close to Fort Eustis where my son was.The housekeeping lady Virginia Rocks!! She made for sure both the rooms had everything we needed!

Review 109:Breakfast is, well, OK, it is included and well rounded though.

Review 110:We have stayed here about 7 times since last spring. It is very convenient to Busch Gardens and Williamsburg, quite affordable, and generally clean and quiet.

Review 111:The only thing that they should really upgrade on are their windows treatments. Good blackout curtains BUT no sheer curtains behind them. So when you open them anyone outside can SEE right in.

Review 112:Easy off the road accessibility, check in easy, rooms nice with microwave/refri, breakfast was basic but clean and well stocked. First floor was great, and good parking.

Review 113:I really didn't care how small the kitchenette was. No counter space to prepare food. The bathroom didn't look like it had been cleaned, thank goodness I take pine sol with me to clean....

Review 114:I really like that Fort Eustis is right across the street. My younger son really enjoyed the things there were to do right there at the hotel. Pool table, movie theater, and the work out rooms.... The room is nice and spacious.

Review 115:Romm was clean. Desk staff very friendly. I stayed during a military convention (I was not part if the convention). The breakfast was fantastic for a continental breakfast. They offered the standard, muffins and cereal but included was scrambled eggs and sausage links and patties. They had fruit, bagels and waffles. Great stay.

Review 116:The eggs are powdered and the sausage microwaved. They used to have bacon and fruit but not for the last visit. It also ends at 9:00, not sure if it's a seasonal consideration or cost. Next time we'll stay down the road a little at Point Plaza, it's less than $10.00 more per night but the breakfast is way better. Last time we were at The Mulberry Inn I watched the manager step over a slice of bread just sitting on the sidewalk, they then watched me pick it up and not even a thank you.

Review 117:The staff is ALWAYS pleasant. The breakfast is inclued, it's decent.

Review 118:The room was huge even with two beds. The free breakfast was great a lot of choices for breakfast. The location was excellent. The front desk was very nice and helpful. They had good knowledge about the surrounding area. Love that Theater room was awesome.

Review 119:There were never pool towels available, our room smelled like mold. The bathroom was extremely small. The door to our room did not seal-we could see daylight all the way around it, and you could bend the corners inside 3-4 inches as if the door was made of rubber. The beds were very uncomfortable and the TV was ancient.

Review 120:The pool was beautiful and the breakfast was good.

Review 121:The room was very small for a double executive room w/double beds. Also the bathroom no room to move around. Other wise I enjoy my stay.

Review 122:The cleanliness & staff very professional & friendly, I enjoy the scenery on the property. Breakfast was awesome.

Review 123:Location is close to Fort Eustis but there's nothing walkable other than a bar and a convenience store. It's a quick drive to restaurants.

Review 124:pool was nice

Review 125:Eggs at breakfast were terrible-tasted like cardboard covered in salt.

Review 126:Free breakfast had good variety. Professional, friendly staff. When the hotel misplaced our booking.com reservations, the front desk staff did everything they could to fix the situation. They apologized and gave us a discount because the size room we booked wasn't available. The next day, a bigger room became available and they offered it to us at the discounted rate. Staff also printed off maps and info on things to do nearby.

Review 127:Wi-Fi was difficult to get onto and to navigate on.

Review 128:The rooms were comfortable, very clean and well stocked. We would use them again and definitely recommend them!

Review 129:I did not like the fact that my room did not get cleaned today. Slow draining tubs.

Review 130:I liked that it is located right outside of Fort Eustis and close to Busch Gardens.

Review 131:They rooms to small for the price you pay. And they don't put drink in water in the room. And I make my reservation and avant .when I get to the hotel they aren't have nothing ready for me and they put me in any available room .And if not right because nothing work . And that rooms.

Review 132:They need before giving a room to the guest double check everything works at the room. And extending a time for the breakfast. Start to early and finish early.

Review 133:One front desk clerk was rude and the front desk staff said room couldn't be changed because they had a new reservation system they were not proficient using. Rooms had a musty/smoky odor.

Review 134:Bed was firm and comfortable. Manager was accessible by phone and rectified a problem with initial room location.

Review 135:Our group of 10 came in to do a job at the Coast Guard Training Center. We worked all day Sunday and came in late. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Woke up early and had a great breakfast. Great location too.
