Newport News Inn

I had a booking from Wednesday July 27th to Saturday July 30th in room 129, but left at 4AM on the first night and felt uncomfortable the moment we entered. My fiance and I were lying in bed when she got two bite marks on her arm around 1AM. We got up right away and pulled the sheets and blankets off of the bed to look for what might've caused this. After an hour of searching, the only thing we found in the hair-infused, stain-covered sheets was that the plastic mattress protector was ripped to shreds. I immediately reserved another hotel for later that day on the 28th after check-in at 4PM as my fiance has unfortunately dealt with bedbugs before and knows the signs and was very suspicious. We re-made the bed and laid down fully clothed on top of all the sheets and blankets with the lights on. At 3AM we were up again after she was bitten in three distinct spots on her back (bedbugs bite in a straight line as they crawl on your skin). I immediately went to the front desk/drive-up window to check out and let them know of the problems that are potentially in every room, as bedbugs spread fast. Thankfully my other booking was able to squeeze me into their last room at 4AM on the 28th. I also took pictures when these happened and sent them to the local department of health for Newport News. I'd have taken more pictures of the room if I knew I could upload them for this review. There were also a few people out very late hanging out talking loudly and drinking in the parking lot and the refrigerator smelled like beer and the microwave smelled like they recently heated up a pile of curry on the glass microwave plate.

Very basic I have stayed here several times. Seems to be a safe location. Some late night activities in parking lot, but not to much. Rooms always seem clean and pretty basic. This trip remote for tv was not functional. Dont expect any type quality towels, so thin you can see through them. I stay here for the price and location.

Quiet and convenient

Simple and modest. enjoyable for overnights or short stays. budget friendly as well.

Sleep for a night. The motel is what it is. It is fairly clean, although my sink had a fair amount of hair left in it. I guess in todays world you pay for what you get. It is convenient for me and a price that I can afford. The front desk personal act like they are doing you a favor to take the time to check you in, through a window. Seems there is a fairly nice lobby, but that would probably cause more work, and the feeling I get is this motel stays away from over to much work or customer service.
