Staff was friendly and the room was as described or better. Keep in mind this is an older facility, however appears to be maintained and upgraded much nicer than others in the area I have stayed at recently. I would definitely stay again.

Really nice place. Biggest complaint is the cabin we stayed in had a tiny kitchen but had about everything you need and was able to cook in a couple of nights. Place was clean and the full porch on the front was great to sit on.

The price was right for a beach location. Unfortunately, the air conditioner was so loud off and on all night that I hardly slept. Glad it was just one night.

Clean facility. Check in was easy with room code. Access directly to the beach. Nice pool. Wish they have a hot tub. The bed is spring though so it's a little uncomfortable to sleep in. Everything else is great. Thank you!

Nice old school Nags Head accomodations. The rooms are decent, however the bathrooms need some maintenance. There was some mold in the bathroom due to the amount of moisture and no vent.
The beds were absolutely HORRIBLE and need to be replaced.
The pool was nice and the property was set up well with a nice cozy community feeling.
All of the staff we encountered were extremely friendly and helpful.

Older cottages but clean, quiet, and safe!
We were texted our door code since the office was closed when we arrived. Instructions were left on the table for us. Our dogs were able to join us, which was so nice! The room
Had a broom and a vacuum for the sand.
Book and beach access were awesome amenities!

Great place with great beach access! Was very clean and comfortable. Only downside was the pool was shut down during our stay and we could hear the upstairs neighbors very loudly, a kid running around constantly. It was great to have a kitchenette with a big fridge! Front desk staff was very friendly!

The property was in a very convenient location. Pool was nice! Steps to get up to the beach were great but could use something to cover the hot sand on the hill down. Not much as far as kitchen supplies but had what we needed. Could use upkeep on the inside. Somethings just needed some TLC. Overall it was a great vacation and I would consider going back again.

We arrived at 4:30 to check in and came to the clised office to be greeted by a sign that said to check in at the hotel next door. Drove next door and presented to the feont deak only to be met by someone who did not know why I wpuld be checking in over there. I called the # that was on the note of the front door of the original hotel and this receptionists phone rang however she said that wasnt the correct #. The receptionist got her manager and when the manager came in she checked in someone else thinking it was me. I eventually got checked in and got my room code (which she announced to the entire lobby). Other than that mess of a check in....the motel was perfect. Laid back. Local. Great neighbors. Great beach access. We will be returning.
