About myself: Play Riverfront anywhere from 4-5 times per month. Not a member but often play with…read moremembers. Pros: Riverfront is typically in good shape. For a course south of the Hampton Roads tunnels, Riverfront is usually a good bet that you will have decent tee box, good greens (with some exceptions), and clean fairways. Staff are generally friendly. Cons: Grounds crew is oblivious to the players. Typically find them with headphones on and unaware of their surroundings. Always have a problem with bunkers, bunkers are rarely raked and players don't do the course any favors by cleaning bunkers after use. Expect high load of divot marks on the greens. Normal to have to fix divot marks before a putt. If you are off the fairway, come to expect to have to hit off unmaintained areas (dirt, pine straw or debris). Maintenance ends at the fairway, rough is typically cut similar to fairway. If there is any rain the night before and you have an early tee time, expect no range as it is often closed. Unacceptable: The manager (Brian) is unfriendly and unloyal. How he maintains his job is not understood by members and players that know the staff. Example: Today I witnessed (why I decided to write a review) a twosome that went out for the first tee time (7 AM). Within the twosome were myself and a member of 5+ years that plays golf at Riverfront upwards of 4 times a week. We were provided awareness that a tournament would be going out at 8:30 and that it was starting on the back nine and stretched to hole 12. No additional direction was given. We reached hole 16 and ran into the tournament beginning play. Unfortunately, we folded in between the tournament groups and tee'd off on 16. We were met at our ball by a marshal. The marshal stated we needed to wait until the entire tournament went through before we picked up our play again....so other words wait 1.5-2 hrs for the entire tournament to go through. We let the marshal know that was unrealistic and that we would be able to fold into the group, finish our two holes and not hold anyone up. The marshal was favorable to that course of action, but the pro shop returned with an answer of we would shut down the cart until they leave. We finished 16 and then headed into the pro shop. Going into the pro shop the member requested a 9-hole rain check believing that was a good compromise to an unfortunate situation. He was offered by Brian, $5. Considering the long wait, we would have had to finish our round, the poor management of tee times (there was a twosome behind us) and the fact we were unable to finish our round that we paid for, we thought this was a good compromise. Brian disagreed to the point he ended up refunding the member over $800 for the remainder of his membership at the club. So, a long-term member, who spends over $500 a month additional at the course, and the upwards of $400 I spend at the course a month were not worth a nine-hole rain check due to an inconvenience on both the course and ourselves. In closing: I am sure this review will be met with the same professionalism and loyalty as presented today. Unfortunately, this professionalism is normal for management. If you want a decent course to play and have to stick south of the tunnel, no doubt Riverfront is worth the time. Do not expect you to be at the forefront of the management's concerns. Customers at Riverfront are not always right!

Let me start by saying Riverfront is a beautiful course. That being said still does not out weigh…read morethe bad. On June 24th 2021 my brother and I had a tee time booked for 5:03pm. We had been looking forward to playing this course for weeks now. We get there and pay our money, 40$ a piece for 18 not bad.. The starter never said a word so we grabbed a cart and got our bags and headed to number 1. Approaching our tee time we headed towards the box, only to be stopped by a group of 4 saying "we are in a tournament" y'all can't play ahead of us. So we waited and waited for multiple groups in the "tournament" to go ahead of us. We finally flagged down I'm assuming the course manager for the day. And asked how many more groups are left in the tournament? He barked his reply, " y'all are not playing number 1, if y'all wanted to play y'all should not be on 1 go to 10" long story short being out there for 3 hours we only played 7 holes because they packed the course with tournament people and continuously over booked people knowing it would be slow. The attitude of the staff at the course was not welcoming and not appreciated. And ultimately it was a waste of money. I understand golf can be slow sometimes but usually everybody tries to keep the pace of play steady. It was just poor course management and they seemed to not care at all about the non tournament players that day. I will not be back for a long time, as I can go elsewhere and be treated with respect and have a better time.

There was only 1 Glow Golf in Yelp for Hampton Roads and this one is inside MacArthur mall - 2nd floor, South Side area. Walking in, it's actually hard to find where the main area is, but just keep walking, it's on the right mid-way through. The prices are very reasonable. It's $10 per adult for 3 rounds of the holes. It's best to set your expectation properly when going here. Don't expect to be woo'd in amazement about how intricate or crazy the courses are. It's basically putt-putt in the dark with a few black lights overhead. I'm not trying to down play this but I am trying to set the bar properly. It was a very rainy day and we didn't want to be stuck indoors at home so off to the mall we went. THIS is the advantage of this place. It's basically something to do when it's convenient for you. Would we do this again? Sure, if the conditions were right. Food Taste: n/a Overall Service: 4 Value of food to cost: 4 Facility: 3 Repeat customer: yes Dog Friendly: no

It all looks pretty cool but the whole place is just eh, not much going for it besides basic wood frames and paint, and the different holes aren't labeled well so it's easy to get out of order. Unless they get more decorations/atmosphere I'll probably stick to other mini golf locations.

Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal…read moreexperiences and my personal experiences alone, so without further delay please let's begin!. I stopped by to see if they had and Jordan Jumpman brand items like they sell on line! Sadly to say unless I overlooked it there was not one piece of clothing that displayed the jumpman Jordan brand, not one!!!.. I didn't even see any of the Jordan retro sneakers that they display on line either! I even put it a raffle for a pair of 11 Jordan Gama, size 11 on line but yet they didn't have not one pair of Jordan retro to sell.. Maybe I'm missing something but that seems like false advertising if you have stuff on line but nothing in store? Maybe I came at a bad time,I will not rule that out but this sure is a disappointment in my opinion! Will I return you ask? Sure, but only if I see what I'm looking for in store first!!..

I placed my order by 3 PM and opted for in-store pickup, registering my number for text updates regarding my order. However, I did not receive any text notifications. I then returned to the Dick's app to chat with their AI assistant. I inquired about my order and when it would be ready for pickup, and the AI indicated that it would be ready within two hours. By 7 PM, I still had not received any updates, so I decided to call the store. When I spoke to a Dick's employee about my order, they were unable to locate it and went to fetch their manager, Averie. Upon speaking with Averie, I provided her with my order number and mentioned that I had not received any text messages, inquiring about the status of my order. She informed me that she had not received my order. I asked her why, given that I placed my order online at 3 PM. She patiently listened and requested a few minutes to contact their tech support to determine why my order had not been received. Less than 10 minutes later, Avery called me back to inform me that their system was down, causing delays in processing online orders. She mentioned that I could expect an email by 10 PM notifying me when my order was ready. I agreed to wait. The next day, I called again around 1 PM, and fortunately, Averie answered the call. I informed her that I had not received the email. She asked if she could call me back while she contacted headquarters to find out why my order had not been processed. I was grateful that she was able to handle this herself, as I wouldn't have known where to start. I also appreciated Averie's assistance during my calls; receiving answers from a human is much more reassuring than an automated AI response. Ultimately, I was able to visit the store on Sunday and purchase the bicycle.

Rivers needs to do better with their Top Golf reservations. I made a reservation a week ago on…read moreOpenTable and received a confirmation for a party of 6 for a birthday celebration. My guest and I show up Friday 9/29, after waiting around for two hours in the casino for them to tell us Top Golf is closed for the night. No phone calls, no text, no email before. All we got was an excuse that the general manager closed all the suites because none of the suites were paid for and they didn't have any extra waitresses to cover the area. This is totally unacceptable and ridiculous. I don't know where the disconnection is with Open Table and the Casino but online doesn't ask you to pay to reserve a suite. Furthermore as a manager how do you not check online reservations before shutting down the whole area? I had ppl who showed up at 11pm just to play Top Golf, this was a complete waste of people's time. And a round of drinks the supervisor gave doesn't make up for ruining a planned birthday celebration. I could have just went to Virginia Beach. Also the MAJOR issue with this location, NO ONE answers the phone ever! I tried calling after getting my confirmation email to ask a question, got no response. Even calling the main casino phone no one answers, you get put on hold forever and then transferred to a voicemail. I know this casino just opened but to have no type of customer service available to answer calls makes no sense. Thanks to the waitress at the betrivers bar that was understanding and had great energy. Other than that if you want the Top Golf experience go to the full location, you can't depend on when they going to choose to have the area open. I don't even know why it's there, it a waste of space.

Just don't order food and expect it delivered to your room or to be notified when it arrives at front desk. Oh! and don't be surprised when you call down in frustration and get put on hold for 5+ minutes while they "check" if your food arrived. Rude AF. Food was stone cold. Thanks! That was great. Additional issues: -Shower does not drain. Water up to ankles. -Server asked to bring coffee 2x. Did not happen. Had to ask MOD. -General Dynamics ship/factory/whatever across the river is LOUD. -Don't park in hotel's garage. it's $20/day while municipal garage across the street is $13/day. Jus sayin.

The final time being when I asked for a package that was dropped off, never actually heard front of house staff using profanities in front of customers. Some of the staff reached with either nepotism or desperation hires, as some were clearly not trained in hospitality or customer service. The valet was a whole other issue, was told that it would be on our hotel bill, but it ended up not being. The valets were inconsistent with service and urgency. I even have one slightly rude when I asked to make change, mind you the change, I was asking to make was to tip them. Again, reeking of either nepotism or desperation hires for staffing. The concierge lounge was adequate, a couple of the attendants were quite friendly and helpful, but one gentleman was borderline rude. It almost seemed like one young man was living in there, as he was there all hours of the day and night at times watching the TV with the volume all the way up. Again, could've just been a guest, but it was slightly awkward. I would stay here again, if no other options were available, that being said if any other Marriott property in Norfolk were available, I would choose them over this property. It's a shame, because this location is absolutely fantastic and terribly convenient. Hopefully there is a significant management or staffing change, and we will get to try this property again, but otherwise I will strictly avoid. Housekeeping seemed to be very attentive and did a great job on my room. It was very clean and comfortable for my stay. One party in our group had to be moved because she found multiple roaches in her room. Nearly 2 weeks after my stay was completed, and I still have not received nights, points or spend credit on my Bonvoy account....another indicator as most well run properties post this 3-5 days after stays.

However, this is more than a retail store! It offers merchandise for every sport, and there was an exercise class in session, along with several sets of parents watching their children climb the rock wall that's conveniently situated in the center of the building. Wow! My first thought was, I need to tell my niece about this rock wall opportunity for her adventurous kids! There's a cost for the climb, but a quick glance at the pricing seemed reasonable. Here's a fun place to shop and spend time exploring for the whole family. The staff was very friendly in directing us and our cashier, Curtis was helpful, too.
