We had a very tight timeline, coming in for a wedding and needed to be into our room before the 4pm check-in. The management was so helpful and accommodating, working quickly to get us into our room so that we could prepare ourselves for the wedding. The suite we had with two rooms was adorably decorated, clean, and appointed with everything we needed. There were ample complimentary soaps and coffee-making supplies.

If we had had the time, we would have made our way to the beach located directly across the street. The hotel is perfectly situated along Virginia Dare Trail. I would definitely make a return visit here! would give our stay a 10 out of 10 except that the air conditioning struggled a bit to make it to the back bedroom. Knowing this, the hotel staff had already supplied a small fan, which we placed in the main room, direction the air back towards our bedroom. Doing this honestly kept the room quite comfortable through the night.

The location of the hotel was great! Only a few houses down and across the street was beach access. The beach throughout the entire week (July) was not too busy. It felt very private. The room was extremely clean. The bathroom, though small, functioned well. We utilized the front porch a lot which had two chairs and a railing to dry our towels. It might have been that we had quieter neighbors, but we were not bothered by sound despite how close together each of our rooms were. We appreciated that at the end of our stay our car was parked right outside our door for an easy pack up!

The room is very compact. We didn't mind it, but the walking space between the bed and bathroom area was only big enough for one of us to pass at a time. The AC hummed loudly every time it restarted, so I wouldn't recommend the stay if you are a sensitive sleeper.

Best beds, i slept great. It is pet friendly, close to the beach and restaurants, owner and his sister were very helpful and accommodating allowing us to check in early and clean our rooms first. The rooms were very clean and there is a lot of parking. Very nice quaint simple stay. There is a vending machine for soda, and a wash off shower.

One bed rooms are TINY. I mean TINY. those rooms should be priced very cheap. I know they cannot change the room size but man they are tiny. It would be okay with no dog, but if you have a dog upgrade if your staying more than 2 nights. An ice machine would be nice to. Also, a pool would have been nice, but i know that is something they cannot change.

The staff was excellent and could not be more accommodating. Would definitely stay here again. The location to the beach and stores is super accessible -pet friendly - with space provided for your pet ourdoors -privacy - provided all necessary toiletries, dishes, comfortable bedding, and linens. -private front porch/ entrance

The 2 bedroom appt was a bit cozy but still totally doable for a short weekend. - could use a shower caddy or shelf in the shower - in the extreme heat ( upper 90s), the bedrooms did get a little toasty during the day.

Straight across from the beach and public beach access... place to potty my two dogs... very easy parking... and access to conveniences for travel... very happy overall... I highly recommend for budget and pet travel and travel in general.

Wish check-out were at 11am vs 1030am, but minor inconvenience... property great in terms of staying with pets and location and clean with comfortable sleeping.

Very clean, super fast check-in, and we didn’t have to check out. It was also super quiet aside from hearing dogs barking (no TV noise or talking from other rooms). The manager was also kind, friendly and clear with instructions.

The complimentary coffee was pretty watery, but it’s complimentary so I can’t complain too much. Nothing I really didn’t like otherwise :)

The location to the public access and Jolly Roger's to name a few.

The kitchen sink dripped constantly. Walls were very thin so you could hear the neighboring room snore. The shower was very tiny. You lift your arms up to wash your hair and your elbows were touching the wall.

Nice little motel close to everything. Staff were friendly and room was well worth the price. I would not have a second thought about staying the there again. If you want a nice, no frills, quiet place, 10 seconds from the beach, this is the place.

The blinds in our room let too much light in.

Friendly and attentive management. Bright, clean soundproof room with secure entry. Good location and pet friendly.

No covered porch for the room I was in and no little table between the outside chairs. Also, no place to hang clothes in the room with the kitchenette.
