The reviews I read prior to my stay were very good to very bad. Having stayed there, I think I know why. The three story bldg in front of the property appears to be in very bad shape; it looked shabby and dirty. Had our room been there, I don't think I would have stayed.

Our room (#135) was in the smaller 2-story bldg in the back of the property. It was set up like a suite; sitting area in front, bath off the hall and bedroom in the rear.

The rooms were very small; the bathroom ridiculously so. However, the rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable. There was a microwave and a fridge in the room and it was mere steps to the beach.

All in all, I wouldn't go back but it wasn't a terrible experience.

We arrived to a clean room with clean toliet, plenty of towels and toliet paper, room did have a slightly musty smell to it but you are near the water, I am sure other people come in with we feet, clothing etc...from pool or beach, this is bound to happen. We had a nice refrigerator in our room with a microwave. Two TV's which was nice, the bathroom was a little snug but certainly manageable. Having the four pillows on the bed was nice. The continental breakfast was nice with juice, coffee and milk. Assorted cereals, bagels, english muffins, and make your own bagels which were YUMMY!!! Staff was very pleasant and there was nice adorondack chairs outside to sit out and listen to the ocean. The access to the beach was close and private. Only slight complaint was the small parking lot. For the price, and we travel quite extensively, it was a great place to stay

Well The room was kind of smelly and when the toilet got clogged from nothing they told us to come to the desk for a plunger. What service is that. The room with a queen and pullout had two flat screen tvs which was nice. The breakfast was good but the afternoon refreshment. Ha a few cups with lemonade and a tray with about 5 stale cookies. I would definetly go to Outerbanx again but would not stay at that hotel. The last thing is it does have a good view of ocean and it is right on the ocean.

Our room was clean and comfortable. The staff was very attentive and met our needs beyond my expections. Yes, it is an older hotel and could use some cosmetic upgrading, but, what matters to me is having great service and a clean place to stay. My boys loved the fact that we had two TV's and 1.5 baths in our suite. Our family plans to stay there again, maybe making it an every year thing. Although I live about 2 hours away, I had not visited the Outer Banks in about 20 years and it is good to know that I can plan on having somewhere to stay the next time we visit.
