Rooms and especially bathroom was extremely dirty. The floor looked like it had not been vacuumed in a year. baseboards was moldy and covered with crud and some was loose which indicates vacuuming is never done. It also appeared that refurbishing is done solely by applying a coat of paint over crud that may be under it.

Absolutely Awesome Oceanfront
Absolutely perfect oceanfront view and stay! The hotel staff was lovely and helpful from start to finish. We want to return when the new restaurant is open but pool bar was awesome! Bed was comfy and room was large. Beach chairs and umbrellas were perfect. Did I mention that killer view??

This was my first trip to the NC coast. This hotel was a great choice in bringing the hometown vibes. I loved the room and the staff. Everything was great. We were disappointed that the restaurant was under remodel and closed. This was not mentioned beforehand. We will be back again to this lovely family hotel.

We booked a room overnight because it was oceanfront and the balcony view overlooking the ocean did not disappoint. However, the sliding door was extremely difficult to open and close. The bed was comfortable and the room size was good. The bathroom was divided into two sections by an door and the toilet/shower side was very tight. There was no soap in the shower, only shampoo and conditioner. We expected some kind of complimentary breakfast but there was none. We didn’t get to spend time at the beach or pool because of our late arrival, but from what we could see, it was very nice. The hotel provides chairs, umbrellas, pool, Tiji Bar, and children’s playground for guests.

Great end of summer stay
An affordable stay at the end of summer. We enjoyed the pool , the jacuzzi and the pool side bar. The chairs and umbrellas on the beach are a definite plus. Everyone was very friendly.

Unfortunately our room was above the tiki bar and it was extremely loud and the loudness went on entirely too late. I wish we had been placed in a room away from the tiki bar area. I didn't mind people having a good time, but it got out of hand both Fri and Sat night.
