8/10 Good

"We enjoyed how close it was to the beach without being oceanfront"

Hampton Inn & Suites Southport

10/10 Excellent

"The staff, from front desk to housekeeping were very polite and respectful. The front desk clerk on 3-11 shift was an eldery gentleman, whom I regret not asking his name, was in my opinion the best example of a hospitality employee that we've met in our 45 yrs. as a couple traveling. Grat place, great staff. Probably the best Hampton Inn we've stay in."
