Frank

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The rooms were a little small and outdated for the price. Paying top dollar - granted the expectations were a little on the high side for bathroom, amenities, area in general, service. May still be the best in the area but don't expect the type of value you would typically expect for this price. The bed for example made huge creaking noises whenever you made a small move which made sleeping a little more difficult...

Very clean room. Quiet air conditioning felt great at night in the middle of the hot and humid summer. Big very comfortable bed. Extremely convenient high quality restaurant with great food at this inn. We enjoyed every meal with a great variety of choices. Friendly attentive and efficient staff. Lots of small welcoming touches like morning coffee in the lobby and afternoon cookies. On-site EV charging; very important for our vehicle eliminating range anxiety. Absolutely beautiful view overlooking Pamlico sound with spectacular sunsets. Highly recommend!
