This wonderful little mom and Pop hotel is perfect! It is just the right amount of quirky, old school beach house, and relaxing comfort. We received an unexpected upgrade last minute and could not be more grateful.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Check in was easy, was going to be later than the check in times posted. Was informed that there was sand piles in the parking lot(understandable with the recent storm). But was not expecting the beach in front of the room to be GONE and the water right against the porch. It was extremely loud. With the other houses going into the ocean it made my son feel uneasy as myself being alone with two children. The room was clean but had a smell to it I assume recent panel replacements in the room. To ease my child I felt the need to leave so he felt safe. I understood paying for the room for that night as we had been in the room and taken our bags in. But there was no option to return money for the other night I was to stay and didn’t. I’d understand if it was under other circumstances but I was never informed of the water issue and to be out hundreds is mind blowing. Never had me sign anything else. Never gave a receipt. Nothing. I’m so disappointed and upset. But my kids feeling and safty comes first. I won’t be booking here again.

If luxury not required, stay at the Outer Banks M.

This Motel has been in existence for many years and is currently undergoing some repairs/remodeling. Overall, the rooms were very clean and neat, with fridge and microwave. Location was right next to the beach, some units overlook the ocean. Compared to other locations, room rates were very reasonable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

It did what it needed to. Shower and a dry place to sleep. Unless you slept in the front porch area. We sat out it in to watch the storm that rolled in. Water leaked under the door and the ceiling out there leaked. The maids left a cute little envelope for tips on the fridge… that was placed under the list of things that the guest needed to do before check out. If I’m not mistaken, that was a list of things that the maid do everywhere else I have ever stayed. We ate 3 meals there and put all the dishes in the dish washer. So when we went to run it after it was all loaded. It became very apparent that the dishwasher didn’t work, and probably hasn’t worked in a very long time. And with a $50 fee for not doing the items on the check out list. There I was at 3 in the morning hand washing dishes. It’s not like I’m saying that there was some building roped off and probably shouldn’t be entered, or the beach front building/rooms you could literally fish off the deck cuz the waves go right up to the stilts that are holding the place up…. Oh wait. That’s all true too. But the fish cleaning station is present and worked great. But all in all. It’s the OBX, it’s suppose to be an adventure. It got the job done. And for the right price, I’d probably stay there again. (Lower price that is)
