Nice place to stay.

10/10 Exceptional

Great, pet friendly, price was great, and in a great location. If you have a big truck or suv, the parking can be tight but this place is great.
Andrew, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed there 4 nights during the Bluegrass festival in Manteo. It was very comfortable and clean with a microwave and fridge in our room. The place is a bit worn, but not terrible. It was a good value at approximately $75 per night.

Decent spot

Overall the visit was nice! The pillows could have been a little better, and the room had minor wear and tear. We would stay there again 🙂
Deborah, 3-night trip

Cute little beach place!

We enjoyed our stay! Small place but clean and cozy. Perfect for a long weekend at the beach for our family of 3. In walking distance of a beach access (across the road) and several restaurants and ice cream shops. Highly recommend!

Staircase was narrow and dirty. Stove in kitchen didn’t work, dirty windows and bath towels were thin, only coffee for one day, no maid service.

8/10 Very good

We had a kitchenette and it was spacious and clean. Very convenient to the area we wanted to be on the beach and restaurants.

Worth a try

This hotel is old and has some obvious maintenance issues. The cleaning staff has allot of pride in their work and they do an amazing job with what they have to work with. The front desk was friendly and very polite. I would stay here again.

Trevor, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Older OBX motel, room was clean and worked for our quick trip. Great location.
Joyce, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Pet friendly property, beach access close by/walking distance, staff was friendly, I would definitely go back. The only thing I didn’t like was that not all the rooms had a full size fridge/ some had mini fridges so it’s harder to manage when you have a longer stay. Our stay was wonderful overall!
