Nice quaint and quiet place waterfront.
Excellent service at the continental breakfast.
Didn’t have any interaction with desk staff and the desk is open very limited hours - but that didn’t affect our stay. Perfect place in Manteo

This place is a gem in the center of downtown Manteo. It is close to so many sites including quick access to the beaches on Nags Head. Accommodations were excellent and the staff knowledgeable and friendly.

We loved how close we were to the festival! The Inn was beautiful, clean and cozy! The atmosphere and the staff were 10 out of 10! I would highly recommend this establishment and would come back. It’s right on the water and it was amazing to be so close to the fireworks on July 4th!!!!

Very nice hotel with a great restaurant. The AC in our room needs some service (it is loud!) but the staff is lovely and I’d come back

The stay was very good, even though a storm had come through the day before which caused the restaurant to close.

Ice machine not working. Was able to get ice first night at bar, but not Sunday nor Monday as bar and restaurant are closed.
Very limited staffing.

There were bugs. Big bugs! I’ve always wanted to stay there, but I was disappointed that the room and especially the bathroom wasn’t clean.

Really enjoyed this peaceful place right on the waterfront. Very comfortable bed, spacious room, good breakfast, beautiful property. Staff was very pleasant and easy to work with.
Downsides were that there was a little mustiness in the room (it is a waterfront, after all), and the steps down to the parking lot are a little tricky. I tripped a couple times at the bottom where the step meets the parking block.
We would definitely come again.
