Poor customer service; good location

Breakfast was good. Not enough seating inside for the morning crowd. Couldnt check in at 4pm bc no rooms ready AND pool/hot tub closed. Pool opened later but hot tub diwn for half of stay. picked hotel and paid higher price bc of those amenities. Asked about a discount and told "we dont do that" which was rude and not great customer service. Didnt even offer to let us speak to manager. Location was good spot. Pd for ocean view, got stuck on 3rd floor so more dunes than ocean. (You need 4th floor to see full beach/ocean) Upon check out, no "thanks for staying." Need some improvement in customer service and should offer something in exchange for loss of pool use and not being able to check in at CHECK IN TIME (Good thing I didnt pay for early check in.

Great location! We were in 3 miles of both Jockey Ridge and the Wrights brother muesum which were our highlights for going. The Hotel itself was a standard beach hotel. Very clean and well mantained. Access to the beach access was amazing! close to good food options. A bit upset that the pool was closed both days we were there and no compesation offered for the total inconvience. Breakfast was good and staff was friendly. We got a room with a balcony and enjoyed that.

Have visited this property several times and each time has been nice. When we first arrived, the hot tube was out of service due to a leak. The property was very informative and quickly fixed the problem so guests could enjoy the amenities. Their breakfast is pretty good. Great access to the beach. Great stay.

Do not waste your previous vacation money here

Hotel died but offer Ron service at all unless they have sufficient staff on board. We didn't have any room service during the 4 day stay. No one came to do anything in the room (clean shower, empty garage, replace towels, replenish body wash, replenish coffee and cups). We even asked about the service at the office and the answer was "we have a lot of check-ins and we don't have enough staff and we won't be able to service your room". This resulted in us having to go once a day to the office to ask for towels and body wash. What s joy.

The place was nice however, the walls are super thin. Could hear the toilets flush and running shower water. If I stay again I’ll insist on the top floor.
