Island Motel OBX0

Color’s of buildings. Inside painted and flooring, shower and sink all very pretty. Shower was great! Large closet. Liked that there was a broom/dustpan to sweep up sand from beaches. Paintings and decratives in office. Daily bags of ice. Staff very kind, helpful, friendly and good service. Owner even gave me his cane because I lost mine in the ocean. And he cleaned the sand out of my phone because I fell in the ocean and it got wet and sandy. He was very kind, helpful and offered alot of advice to my husband to pass on to me to help with my recovery from knee replacement surgery. Very clean.

Was told breakfast was included and it was not. Didn’t like wicker chair. Not sturdy for large guests like ourselves. I sat there but my husband had nowhere to sit. Didn’t like gravel parking lot.

Clean, cozy, comfortable. Walking distance to coffee shop, down town was nice. Kitchenette had it all. Owner was personable.

Traffic entering and exiting the parking area was loud and next to my room. I felt like someone was going to enter my room. Just my anxiety from traveling solo.

Great location, staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Very comfortable stay, would certainly go back.

Super nit-picky, but water temperature in the shower was a bit touchy (a little too hot and outright cold seemed only a millimeter apart) and the AC unit to had to run for a bit longer than we had hoped to cool the room near where we had it set. No signal on the tv either, but we didn’t need it anyway and didn’t really try too hard to get it working, so hardly a complaint. None of these are things that would prevent me from booking here again.

I loved the vintage charm with all the modern conveniences. Spotless clean,friendly staff and a great little coffee bar and a special cold water dispenser with lemons.

Loved the staff, very friendly. Very personable, walked us to the room and made sure it met our expectations before turning it over to us. Coffee bar and ice available was a huge plus. Location is near all things that we wanted to do. Loved the small town feel of the place, other guests were hanging out and conversed with us in the community spaces. Swings on the porch made us feel at home. Definitely recommend!

Parking was tough in my big truck but that isn't something that can be improved by the motel or staff

paint and decor and landscape was beautiful

bathrooms need exhaust fans

It was just a cool little place. So clean and refreshing. It felt good to be there. I will definitely stay again! The staff interaction was wonderful and I felt at home.

The only negative comment I can make, and to be perfectly clear, I did not do anything to resolve it, was that one of my neighbors slept with the TV on ALL night. It resonated through the walls quite clearly. Other than that, I have nothing to add for this section.

Absolutely charming. Everything was clean and felt comfortable. Loved the gardening outside and they even have a fire pit in the evenings. The fridge inside the room was super useful. Would stay again

A full length mirror in the room would’ve been helpful. There’s it’s only one in the bathroom and you can just see your head because of its placement. The top cover on the bed was a bit itchy, sheets were great and the rest of the bed was comfy. It just wasn’t comfortable to sit or relax on unless you pulled down the covers.

Cozy, comfortable, homey, Very Clean, Love all the colors, it was quiet, had everything we needed, nice bathroom (especially the shower), the ceiling fan was a GREAT addition.

Parking was a little tight, but once I got used to it, it wasn't so bad. The Best part about the parking was that the car was backed up Right AT our door! There was Nothing Not to Like!

I loved the sea glass parking area, the fire pit was a very nice touch & the staff were very welcoming & seemed eager to help in any way. I loved the coziness of the inn & the color scheme

the rooms inside were a bit sterile & unwelcoming , some curtains would be great. they add warmth while also adding some privacy. updated wall decor would be a plus as well,
