"Great value. Expectations met. Older motels might not be for those that have grown up to be spoiled rotten, those given everything in life that expect the Ritz."

Oceanside Court by Kees Vacations ★★★

"This place has SO much potential! I love the older cottage on the beach vibe. Grounds/common areas were great, no complaints. The unit, on the other hand, left a lot to be desired. The mattress must have been original to the buildings, maybe from the 60's? (I believe the one chair was, too!) Sank to the box springs and everytime you move in the bed, the noise from the mattress would wake the dead! The most uncomfortable we've EVER slept on! The coffee pot was put together from 3 different pots. None of which worked together. We bought filters and came back to find out it wouln't even work. The shower curtain had mold and mildew on it. You guys can replace those for a few bucks after each rental! The internet did get fixed, but it was a shock to come back from the beach and there was a total stranger in our room. No warning, no notification to let us know anyone was coming. We stayed for 6 nights and had no where to put our clothes. Even cheap hotels have some sort of dresser. Couldn't ask for a better location, but will rent elsewhere from now on. The last thing you want to do on vacation is call and stay on hold trying to get a hold of someone to address issues. We made the best of it and did not let it ruin our vacation."

Colonial Inn ★★

"Our stay was fine with the exception of someone from the office knocking on our door a half hour prior to the time to check out to see if we were going to check out (which we were in the process of packing and almost done). We felt that was rude especially since I had already taken some luggage to our vehicle."

Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites Nags Head ★★

"Nice new and clean hotel that is still working out the kinks. As a Titanium member we booked a king bed with a partial ocean view. Upon arrival we were told our room type was not available as the owner’s family was staying in the hotel. We accepted two queens instead with no other option. Complimentary breakfast is nice. Not a particularly warm welcome and the staff didn’t converse or say hello. Partial ocean view is over the Shell station so not worth paying extra. Overall, okay for a night but much friendlier options in the area."
