Mariner Inn and Suites
6/10 Okay
"The lady at check in was super sweet and helpful, the room was a bit of a pain to get into, had to call the front desk to get in bc the instructions were a bit confusing. But the lady waited until I was in the room before she hung up which was nice. Had a room facing the road it was a bit noisy in the evenings with traffic. The rooms super dated, the bed frames were horrible to sleep on, if you didn’t gently slowly get on the bed it would slide across the floor, felt like a rolling chair and needed to grab the mattress to get in, which was annoying when your half awake trying to get back in. The mattress was not comfy at all. The bathroom was super super small, the tp was behind the door, so unless you completely closed it you couldn’t get it, which was horrible bc the space was tiny. I’m only 5’8 and my knees hit the door, and the shower was not made for anyone with any height. The towel shapes were fun to see with it being an older hotel. Cheap stay and you truly get what you pay for. The walls are super thin, so if you’re a light sleeper bring ear plugs. There’s no elevator either which is common by the water, definitely won’t stay again unfortunately."
Seahorse Inn and Cottages
8/10 Good
"Was able to upgrade to one of the cottages for our stay, which was great, loved being able to park our bikes right in front of our door. The guy at the front desk was super nice and very respectful of my time. Got me in and out at check in super quick. The showers a little small, which was a little hard to get in as a larger person. Wish the walls were just a bit thicker bc I could hear everything from our neighbors in the evening and when they got up super early in the mornings, but a good set of ear plugs helped. The kitchen as a great addition to not have to pay for eating out every meal. Definitely can use some silverware updates and a can opener would have been nice to have, the one in the room was broken and definitely never cleaned. Also a sponge to do the dishes would have been a help. Bed was a little on the harder side. But overall it was a great stay for our long weekend."

"Beautiful hotel"
Travelodge by Wyndham Outer Banks/Kill Devil Hills
8/10 Good
"This was a great stay and very pet friendly. Wouldn’t be able to tell the pet rooms were that, no odors. Was short walking distance to the beach. Pool was refreshing, however there was a lot of trash around the pool deck that wasn’t maintained. Overall, it was a good stay and we would come back again!"
