The location was reasonably priced. It was a great location. Easy access to the beach. The room was clean and as described.
Parking was terrible. I would not recommend a large truck. And always figure out a way to back in to your parking space or you risk backing into someone to get out.
A hot shower is hit or miss. It will start off hot and guickly turn to cold no matter how many times you try to adjust it.

Constantly had fresh towels at my door but no toilet paper or trash bags. I went and just bought my own. The water smelt. There was rarely parking. It was a struggle to get in and out of the parking lot and other guests were always coming out and helping one another try to manage to squeeze into the parking lot. People stood in their doorways smoking and my room smelt like smoke a lot. I wouldn't stay here again.

Rooms were clean but small ,at least the one with the king bed. Everything outside is outdated and needs repair. The pool was very good . I think the thing most disappointing is we rented this place for easy access to NagsHead fishing pier . We were told when I booked 1 month ago that it was supposed to be open by this weekend July 24th - 26th. ,it wasn't. I know this is not the motels fault, but in the future, I would triple check if this is why you are staying here.

I dispise it when people want a Ritz-Carlton room for a Motel 6 price and then complain!
This motel was a joy. It is the kind of motel my family used to stay in on trips in the 60's. It met my needs completely. It is very reasonably priced for a property on the beach, so it was very convienent for my daily fishing with my grandson. While it should be taken for granted, I will state the room was clean and odor free. The bed was firm, which is how I prefer them with lower back issues; other's opinions may vary. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful and actually seemed to appreciate our business. I would not hestitate to book another stay in the future.

I’ve stayed here every year for a while now.. I love the people, the location… I love that it’s not all fixed up. However, the giant holes/dents in the walls could use some patching … there could definitely be some upgrades (pull out couches). But overall, it’s always a peaceful place to stay and I’ve never had anything happen in the years I’ve stayed here.

The quality has just gone WAY down since COVID. The place is falling apart and is unkept. Hot water is hit or miss. AC running 24/7 can't cool the place off. They wanted to charge me $45 to check in an hour early, even though the room was ready... It just seems like the new owners are running it into the ground to get whatever they can out of it. Shame. It used to be owned by people who cared.

It was not very clean. The first night we stayed there, it was like the sheets were never changes. It felt luke there was sand still on the sheets. I asked them to change them and they did. While it is beachfront property, it can be difficult to access. There are lots of stairs and a hill you have to climb to get back to the motel. If you are vacationing with a few families, like we were, there is no courtyard to be with family members, other than the small pool area and your motel rooms. I will most likely not be coming back to this motel.

It’s a small motel with no frills, but it was great for the price. We had a small room with 2 double beds, There was no view from the room, but the beach was a 2 minute walk from our room through the back of the motel. The pool was very nice, I loved that it was deep for the kids to jump. The room was small, but very clean! The only 2 issues we had: beds were kind of uncomfortable and the parking was really tight. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay and especially the price! Would definitely recommend a stay at this place if you are looking for a low-key place right on the beach.

Our room had mold in the kitchen ceiling. The walls are held together by paint as the moisture has destroyed the walls in the kitchen and part of bedroom. The floor was dirty when we checked in so our feet were almost black. Likely would have left but holding weekend there was no other options. Staff was nice enough but no compensation of any kind. Location for 4th of July was saving event for our 2 night stay.

Pros: nice pool, beach access, friendly staff

Cons: the “cleaner” used the rooms is awful. The smell hits you in the face when you open the door.

I didn’t even end up staying the night. I came for the 4th of July and the fireworks show. I live about 2 hours away and wanted to do a mini beach getaway. I checked in early, about 2:30, and brought my stuff to the room then hit the beach. I came back to the room a few times for 5-10 minutes max. It was hard to stay in there because of the smell. Ultimately, I decided to leave after the fireworks because the smell was too intense. I dropped my keycards in the key drop box and made my way back home.

I already washed the bathing suit and towel that was hanging in the room for about 4 hours and the smell hasn’t come out. I’m going to need to wash everything twice it seems….

For what I was charged for only two nights, I was VERY dissatisfied in the room. Dead roach behind the bed. Bed sheets on one of the beds was dirty/sandy. The floor was dirty (as in not mopped). The air conditioner in one of the bedrooms did not work. The water pressure was low. The faucet in the tub was not even against the tub wall. The overall feel and look of the room was trashy and patched together.
The floors were dirty as evidenced by the bottoms of our feet being brown (and this was not after having any sort of flip flop on that could have made our feet dirty prior.
There's water damage on most of the walls and ceilings as well. I would just hate for a customer to be injured from a falling ceiling or walkway roof due poorly managed or lack of repairs. And the fact that the dirty linen cart is kept outside speaks volumes as to how they run their business

The parking was tight and only one car can enter or exit the parking lot. The place is outdated with layers of paint on the walls. Tge shower handle kept coming off when you turn the water on and off. The livingroom floor was slanted and so was the bathtub. Hard to shower without sliding. Felt like there’s no support under the tub because it kept flexing when you step on certain area. I thought it was going to fall through.

We needed to stay one more night in Nags Head and leave early, that’s why we book this place due to price. I guess you get what you paid for.

This hotel is severely outdated, nowhere near handicap, accessible rooms were dirty, covered in sand whenever we walked in the first day the first night the TV didn’t work in our bedroom come to find out there’s also no air conditioners in the bedrooms. We left early from our stay and the hotel refused to refund us The rooms were terribly hot at night and then the hotel told me that TV is complementary so they had no reason to fix our TV first night. We were there also when the TV didn’t work the lady at the desk said that she would try to switch our rooms in the morning went to go try to do it in the morning. The owner told me that there was nothing we could do. Owner was also very rude. Whenever I was saying, I was not happy and very uncomfortable with our stay.

I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. The woman at the front desk is such a sweetheart!! She made sure we were all set for our stay, and we even got to check in a little bit earlier than scheduled. The rooms are a bit old, but they have character! The room we were in looked like there may have been some previous water damage in one of the walls but there was no presence of any mold or allergens, I'm super sensitive to that, and had zero breathing issues or allergy issues. The room was clean, we had all the towels and linens we needed, and an adorable little towel animal on the bed. It felt like being on a cruise almost lol. Being able to walk a few yards to the ocean right off our room was beyond amazing! The pool was crystal clear, but a little chilly to get in and enjoy. We had a great stay here 😊

The property could use some refurbishing, but its location was too notch! Some rooms you could see the waves crashing on the shore. A short walk over the dunes and you’re on the beach.

What we did like was the pool and the staff brought us towels every am! No vending machines. and what I didn't like was it was not a beach front - view! If you step outside of your room and look over the dune you could get a peek! It is very close to the beach. We arrived on a Thursday and \"beach renourishment\" was happening and there was an \"orange construction fence\" up so we couldn't walk on beach, until they finally took it down Saturday. It would have been nice to have been told but guess that was my fault.
Shower was terrible ....small and no water pressure..... so I would say 3 out of 5 stars

The parking lot is definitely tight and requires you to turn around in a tight space. I don’t recommend bringing big cars. Most of the rooms overlook parking lots on both sides so we had to keep the shades closed most of the time. That being said it was super clean. They provide a great number of towels which was appreciated - and they were super soft. The property was old but that allows you to be right on the beach with beach access so it’s a great trade up. Rooms are small but functional. We went in May and were able to check in early. Staff was super helpful, pool was refreshing, it was perfect for our 2 night stay. Sheets are scratchy though so I recommend bringing your own pillow. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

Check in was a breeze, upon arrive they were painting the outside woodwork. This is an old motel, so I did not expect it to be so good but to my surprise it was it was very good. We got an ocean view room, and it was clean had comfortable bed. The shower is small enough for one person, the coffee pot is small makes one cup but there is a 7/11 a short distance down the road. The ocean view rooms all have chair just outside the rooms and the beach is right at your room. The Nags Head fishing pier is right next door and is currently being remodeled but it like it would be open very soon. I would not hesitate to stay there again. I can't say much about the other rooms, but the beach side rooms are nice and clean and no odors. Thanks for the great stay.

Needs to have staff on site for emergencies. Our king size bed filled the room so the mini fridge, microwave and single cup coffee maker with expired coffee bags in the \"closet\". Made the room small.The key pad needs upgrades if it's facing the ocean. The shower also needs upgrades as well. The placement of the soap and shampoo dispenser was so low you bump into it. And the shower head was loose. The TV placement was we since it's too big for the room. Covered half the mirror and the \"closet\" that has the \"kitchen\". But We had an amazing view and was able to hangout at the table overlooking beach.

Do not stay here. They gave the code to unlock our room door with another guest at 1:00 in the morning and the woman came into our room. Shower curtain came off the wall and sink was stopped up.

Colonial Inn is always a launching point for our OBX trip. They are affordable and convenient for a Friday night stay on the way further south for a following week. We appreciate that they don’t require a 2 night stay and use them regularly as a result.

Infested with flies! On the ceiling, 5 on the TV, at least 6 in the bathroom. The shower was a joke with the faucet coming off the wall.

Absolutely enjoyed the access to the beach and the staff were very attentive.
There were a few large issues though. The tub would not drain leaving mid shin deep water while trying to shower. There were two large stinging caterpillars one in the towels the other on the wall. The AC window unit would not stay running keeping the room temperature very hot. After calling twice to verify they had a coffee pot that took pods upon arrival it was filter and grounds however the staff was able to find one in storage. The parking lot was very small and congested. Other tenants had barking dogs all throughout the night and blaring tvs until early morning hours.

Staff was wonderful. But you get what you pay for 88$ a night . Room was small along with the shower. The bed and the parking was the worst.

Beach view was amazing. This motel is an old motel and some areas you can see.

The rooms had been vlean, the staff was friendly. It is an older property which has been renovated to its best functionality. The soap/lotion/shampoo dispensers had all the same product in it not sure what it was

The kiosk check-in was a breeze and the room was clean and comfortable. Its an older hotel so the shower is a bit small but manageable. Nothing fancy but had everything you need a stay at the beach. The location is perfect! Would stay again.

There was no iron and the shower leaked all night causing water to be on the tile floor which is dangerous ! Fridge was not clean

My only problem is the virtual check-in is kind of rough, I found the office confusing. Other than that I am happy with this stay so far. I really hope the check out is not terribly difficult.

Old motel with very tight parking. Staff was friendly! Room was old but very clean! AC unit smelled like a wet dog when it went on but eventually the odor disappeared. Walked up a few stairs for a very nice view of the beach! For an overnight stay it was cheap and the king size bed was comfortable! It was a perfect stop for the night since it was quiet!

The room was just ok but beach access more than made up for the building flaws. I would definitely stay again. We only stayed one night so we didn't have time to explore the amenities other than the beach.

The room was clean and had a comfortable bed. It could definitely use a remodel. The beach is not visible from the rooms. You have to go up and out onto the beach access which is easy enough.
