The inn is a great spot on the water and walkable to anything you would want to do, see, or need in Manteo. Definitely make time to eat in the 1587 lounge. Great service and food..... that is saying a lot for us because we normally are biased to cooking ourselves and very rarely find restaurants impressive or worth returning to. Our meal here was both. The staff was friendly and informative. Check in and out was easy with texted instructions. Room was clean and had everything you migjt n3ed for a short stay. Fridge, kurig, iron, and extra pillows. The only thing that I would have liked was a hook in the bathroom to hang towels or toiletry bag. But this might have just been the case in our room.

It was quaint and had a great location. Staff was helpful but leaves around 5:30 everyday. The room needed updating: had several areas where it needed to be repainted. Also it was far from full yet we got a room with no view. There was no way to pay more for a view or I would have, and would have been fine if the Inn had been full but we got a middle room with zero view when other better view rooms appeared to be empty.

I have stayed at the Tranquil House Inn around 5 times now as I enjoy the location and past cleanliness, HOWEVER, It is in dire need of a room cleansing- very poor towels and sheets. No maid service, even for simple things like emptying trash. The humidifier was full on my arrival, so I had to empty...room very damp, hence the mold in the bathroom. For the room rate, it was certainly not in par. Hoping the owners put in the necessary upgrades to keep the Tranquil House going as it could be a gem.
