The staff is wonderful and the rooms are clean. While the facility has some age on it, it is still a very nice and economical place to stay. The major plus for me is that it is walking distance to the Bogue Inlet Pier and several restaurants.

It was a 2 star hotel but honestly it was very cute and clean. Simple walk to the beach and they had beach wagons to rent if you needed on a first come first serve basis. Staff was super helpful and very friendly! Was in a great location with shops and food close.

Very friendly people at the front desk. Nice location for walking to a few restaurants that are really great and coffee shop as well! Has a rinse station/shower so you don't have to wait your turn in line at the one at the beach. It is not exactly beachfront, but it is a quick walk to the beach access which is right next to Surf's Up Grill. We enjoyed our stay!

Great hotel for the area and price. Staff was friendly. The room itself was a little rough. There was stains on the bedding, a hole in the bathroom wall, a hole in the ceiling, the standing shower wasn't sealed correctly so the bathroom would flood every time we showered. We wouldn't stay there again.

The air conditioning could use updating as it is a little noisy but overall this is a great place to stay. It’s very convenient to the beach and pier as well as great food. There’s shops including beachwear, ice cream and restaurants in walking distance. I would stay again.

Room was clean, large, very near the beach/pier. It just needed a bit of updating. Several bathroom tiles were cracked and the shower curtain needed replacement. Fridge and microwave were nice amenities and I have to say, there were a lot of electrical outlets which was great. The only con: previous room renters left items behind in the nightstand drawer that we didn’t find until we were looking through drawers as we were leaving—should’ve been found by maintenance staff before the room was given to us.

I liked the closeness to restaurants and the Bogue Inlet Pier. This was the main reason for the stay was for fishing. Only negative was the 1 hour delay to get in my room for check-in. The stated time was 3pm and I didn't get in until a little after 4pm.

Upon checking out, I let the staff know the tub was clogged and did not drain. The refrigerator. Freezer portion was caked with ice and the front door was difficult to open due to the moisture from the beach. I was told they would certainly look into those things, the staff was very friendly.

PRO- Big room, super close to the pier and shopping. Awesome staff. CON- Dirty floor in first room. Had to vigorously slam door to get it closed and then extremely hard to open. Room was pretty beat up. We moved to a second room because of the mentioned problems. The second room was also big and the floor was a little cleaner, but I did have to sweep it. And the door did shut much better. In all, I understand some of the conditions at this property because of its very close proximity to the ocean, but it could use a lot repairs and maintenance
