Quiet, clean, and nice location. I would stay again. I stayed in room with kitchen. Well equipped. I would suggest adding a coffee pot (just my opinion). Coffee was in main office area, and was glad to see, but would rather have in room. Adding a shelf in bathroom would be nice for a place to put things on. Very happy with our stay.

This charming property is a short walk to the shop, restaurants and boardwalk of Manteo. The hotel is adorable and super clean! The staff were absolutely lovely. The location is a short drive to beaches, lighthouses and historic sites.

Everything was good but the picture online of the main building is a little deceiving. It is truly a motel.The room was nice except for the toenails left on the floor from a previous guest. Also no desk or table in the room so no place to eat a snack. Probably could a cheaper room and would stay in Nags Head if we go again. Much more to do there.

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear that you found the room itself comfortable, but we sincerely apologize for the cleanliness oversight. That is certainly not up to our standards, and we will make sure our housekeeping team is aware to prevent this in the future.We appreciate your thoughts on the amenities and the room setup as well. We understand the importance of having a convenient place to relax and enjoy snacks, and your input will help us improve the comfort of our spaces. As for the online images, we're sorry if there was any discrepancy and will review our photos to ensure they accurately reflect our property. We hope you consider giving us another chance to serve you better. Safe travels, and thank you again for your valuable feedback! Warm regards,
