We were passing through VA Beach for a one night stay and I wanted to avoid the noise and bustle of the big hotels. I liked Cutty Sark because it was a small, quiet motel on the water with a balcony, ocean view, and had a pool. It was walkable to the beach, restaurants and sites. The room was very clean and spacious! We loved the vintage feel. The pool is small but was perfect for cooling down at the end of the day.

The queen size bed, although very soft, sank my husband and I to the middle. I ended up sleeping on the couch. This particular mattress would be best for one person or an snuggly young couple! Otherwise we loved the room and the location can’t be beat.

The room was cute and clean. We had a queen bed with a pullout couch. My adult daughter stayed in the pullout couch, it was a bit soft for her liking, but she still slept well. The location was very convenient and we had a great view of the ocean from our corner room. We bought breakfast food and used the refrigerator for our breakfast meals. There was a stove, microwave and a coffee maker. We did not use any of those appliances. The location is easy walking distance to the beach, dunkin donuts was across the street and parking was included for our car and easy to access.

Be prepared that the room is not sound proof from the people walking and driving outside. We live in a city so were very used to that type of noise. If road noises bother you, then either bring ear plugs or don't stay here. The noise did not bother us at all, but it is noticeable. We would definitely stay here again.

Mrs.Johnsons cottage was amazing! TONS of room and it was spotless. We loved it. The bathtub is deep to step into. Wasn't a problem for us but anyone with mobility issues, you have to step down in. We did see a few tiny ants in the bathroom one morning but it was immaculately clean. There was a LOT of glass items on the table and around the place so not great for small children to have these items out but we had all teenagers. Definitely will book here again!

I wanted to be near the ocean but didn’t want to pay the price of a major hotel chain just for a quick one night trip. Location was excellent! I was steps away from the water, literally. Room was definitely 60s vibes but was clean and comfortable. And, it’s just steps away from my favorite pancake house on the beach! It’s centrally located near all the beach stuff; food and things to do.

My only complaint was that I couldn’t get the cable to work on the tv. Too many remotes and steps. It’s 2023, it shouldn’t be that hard to watch tv. Bed was super bouncy so maybe an upgrade is needed there.

Awesome location north of Virginia Beach where it is quieter. For us it was perfect, quiet, near transportation, close enough to the busier part of the beach if you wanted to go. Nearby restaurants and a Dunkin' Donuts right around the corner. The place we rented had a full kitchen, which we used but walked for dinner and breakfast a couple times. We loved it. It was a charming rental and I plan on staying there again.

What is not to like.

Quaint, clean, across street from beach, close to shopping and food’s

not on the beach

It was close to the beach. The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. They fixed my faucet that had an issue quickly.

It was a bit noisy, and you can hear the jets flying overhead, especially at night. If you were light sleeper, it might be a bit challenging to sleep due to the Jets flying overhead.

I liked everything, great location, steps from the beach. Very nice 'old-time' atmosphere in the room, yet there is everything that one needs. The staff (I talked to two different members) both went extra mile for me - that was very appreciated!

I could not really figure out how to make the iron work in the room, but it got figured out in the end.

The location was good. The room was exactly what we wanted, and is as advertised. We did find a dead roach, it being dead shows they spay often, and we saw many while in the area so it wasn't their fault for them.

The bed was very bouncy and mildly comfortable. The virginia beach has a roach problem and they can really do much unless they want to contaminate waterways.

It was close to the beach with ocean view screened in porch for family dinners and fun(adds extra space and beach storage).We like the comfy home feel to the environment and the convenience to the ocean,pool, and Harris teeter. This was our 3rd year staying in T1. Great memories!!

The price matched a lot of more up to date hotels on the boardwalk. The price goes up $1k every year. I like the old feel but it could use some updates like carpet and linens.
