Right on the beach with the ocean at our front door. It was a beatiful place to spend the night. We got a two room suite with a sitting area and kichenette. Was perfect when travelling with an adult child. More

Thank you so much for writing a review of your stay with us at the Mariner. I'm pleased that you had an enjoyable stay with us....we get many returning guests who do love our 2 bedroom suites--they are one of my favorite room types as well. It's great to be able to travel with someone and be together but separate... More

We stayed one night in early Dec. I had read review on Trip Adviser and made an online reservation. Cleanliness was an A-. During my extensive bug check I did discover a empty water under the bed and some dirt behind the headboard. Otherwise very clean. We were there for business and this was fine for one overnight. For an... More

Thank you for staying with us while traveling to the Outer Banks. I will make sure that I share your review with our staff. You are correct--the Mariner II building is located across the street from the ocean...this is why it is best to always follow up by calling the hotel if you make a reservation by internet to make...

We came in at 2 am, having been turned away from Holiday Inn Express due to computer problems. This hotels computer was also down but the clerk had us registered and in our bed in no time. The next morning we enjoyed a fabulous free breakfast which was much more than most hotels provide. Loved it and would definately recommend. More

One property's loss was our gain and I'm pleased that our front desk was able to work around the computer being down to get you checked into the hotel quickly (as I'm sure you were tired from traveling). We appreciate your taking the time to write a review of our property and would love to host your next stay! Please... More

We stayed at the Days Inn in late November on a weeknight. There was almost nobody there. Check in was fast and friendly and the prices were fastastic. Breakfast was included. The room was as close to the ocean as possible. The breaking waves kept me awake for a while which was not a problem. The room was clean and... More

We're glad you were able to take advantage of our great lower rates in the winter. I'm very pleased you found everything clean & comfortable and that our staff was accommodating. We are hoping that everyone is enjoying our new, free hot breakfast of sausage, eggs, waffles, cereals, pastries, etc. Please feel free to contact us direct the next time... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review of your stay at the Mariner. I do want to make a comment first---this hotel has been nonsmoking for over 4 years now. We do not allow guests to smoke in our rooms or suites. There may have been a miscue from the sign in the room that says that... More

Have been going to this hotel since 1977. It is not the fanciest but it is consistent. Has had many upgrades, linens, breakfast (waffles), afternoon popcorn/snacks, tea/coffee available all day. This is one of a few hotels that offer kitchen/suites and is available by the day. Also reservations can be cancelled if necessary (unlike private home reservations). Perfect view, nice... More

Rooms were clean, but slightly musty (attributed this to the beach more than anything). Nice continental breakfast, friendly helpful staff. Will ask for ground floor room next time since the steps are no placed conveniently for upper floors. Beds were more comfortable than most hotels that I have stayed in. I didn't wake up stiff like I do at most... More

Five stars might be extreme. Not comparing this to a Ritz, but by Days Inn standards, where you never quite know what you might be getting into, this far surpassed our expectations. We had a two-room suite, and when I swiped the key with my wife and three kids standing there, I held my breath. What a great surprise to... More

Hi there! Thanks for writing a review of our property after your stay with us on the Outer Banks. Just to let everyone know...Days Inn, I believe, is the only chain that will give a rank to its hotels. If you go to their website you will find hotels ranked by Sunbursts.

Very convenient location, right on the beach. It is also not far from the Wright Brothers monument, and restaurants. We stayed during an unusually hot late June weekend. Fortunately, the air conditioning worked well, although it is a bit noisy. The hotel is a little old-fashioned, and it is clearly a renovation. However, I'd stay there again as the price... More
