This was our second time staying here. Great location + good crowd staying at the hotel. Room was clean, best value on the outer banks. This says it all, last year we stayed it was WV week because of a guest Joe who has came there for many years don't remember specifically. That says what a tight knit motor lodge it is.

We've stayed here multiple times and have found it perfect for us. We get poolside rooms, because they are all 1st floor, ocean side can be 2nd floor (no elevator).You literally walk through a breeze way and your on the beach. Staff are friendly, restaurants are in walking distance and pool is kept clean. We highly recommend!
