Charming and comfortable
Quiet and relaxing. The room was well equipped and comfortable. The room shows it has been updated and well kept. Everything you need for a comfortable stay, full size fridge, microwave, and dishwasher. Mini stove and coffee maker. In walking distance to walk through South Port’s main strip. Clean pool overlooking river. The river wasn’t too clean due to recent hurricane and a little scary with it being an alligator habitat. But the pool was good enough for us. We will definitely stay here again.

The property itself is very well maintained and very clean and safe. The property next to it is like a dump and looking out of our window was like looking at a trash dump. Sad… because the hotel is the opposite, so nice and I am sure they can’t do much about that property owed by someone else… so we just looked up at the river and tried not to focus on that property, because we loved the hotel

Quaint hotel! Perfect amenities.
We had a late arrival and the staff was very courteous, ensuring we knew the procedures for checking in. Room was roomy and beds were comfy. Coffee pot was a bit tricky, but that was probably user error.

The property is in Southport, NC a nice little town that has restaurants and shopping on the waterfront. The Hotel, has it's own private beach and pool and the rooms are clean, have a full size refrigerator and is equipped with dishware and utensils. All in all, we really enjoyed the location and the hotel itself and will come back next time we are in the area.
