Colonial Inn

I was very disappointed in my hotel stay. The only good part was that it was located next to the pier. my stove was filthy when I got there. The view from the deck is now non existent because of the overgrowth on the dune. There was mold in my bathroom on the baseboard. The floors were sandy when I arrived. My oven didn't work and it took me 4 hours to find anyone to even tell that it wasn't working. They did send someone right away to fix it. The screen in the bedroom was ripped. There is only one AC in the living room and then there was box fans in each room to blow the cold air in. I closed the door the first night and woke up sweating. The second floor walkway is literally plywood. The beach access was not easily accessible. Think twice before you book this one

We stayed here last year agree with the comments. Was disappointed in this place. The only thing it has going for if is the location beside the nags head pier. Our TV didn't work when we got there. Parking along the front of the building is horrible when you have a truck to back in.

Impromptu trip to Nags Head for my bday on July 4th. Luckily they had a room. Stayed this time on the side where the office building is but on the second level. It was upstairs right by the beach entrance. Room was almost the same as last time and no problems. So a win!

A bit dated needs some upgrading, but well maintained. Pools in good shape, rooms and appliances are present and operational in the condo / apartments. We rented the 2 bedroom one for a family of five. Kitchens a bit small, and dated. Only had one bathroom and it's small, functions as expected but outdated. It's not run down at all just older. They have maintained there pool and it's very nice. Access to the beach is a hike from the 2nd floor. Down the steps across the parking lot across the other parking lot through a tunnel and up another set of steps 10' more to another flight of steps over the dunes.

I would give them 3 1/2 stars, 5 stars for location. You are right across from Jeanette's Pier & caddy corner to the beach. There is a breakfast/ lunch shop right next door to your right and to your left is a great ice cream shop. If you are looking at being close to the beach, and food establishments without having to drive this is your place. I almost forgot there is also a deli to the left of the pier. Perfection! The reason why I'm giving them 3 1/2 stars is because the room we stayed in, was very basic and looked as if they hadn't done any renovations in years, and the set up was a little odd. The bathroom has a toilet and the shower and the sink was on the other side of the wall in the little bit of common space. Very strange but it worked for us because we share the room with another couple fir the night. If I was staying multiple nights without or without friends that would bother me. The room was clean & there wasn't any visible damage, but a nice pretty new coat of paint on the walls would have done wonders. I liked that this place was reasonable but please keep in mind we went off season on a Friday night. I actually would come back just for ONE night because of the location to the beach & food establishments.

I just stayed for four nights and I must say I was very disappointed. Good about this hotel- location to the beach and very nice pool areaBad- Room was extremely small and smelled of cigarettes and mold. Dead fly squished on blind. Floor was gritty. No service to the room during the stay. I honestly say I felt very unclean and had to sanitize my items when I returned home. I will not return to this place when I visit Nags Head again.

Rooms are smaller than what they appear in the photos. Rooms are not as modern as what the pictures look like on their page or on booking.com. Bathroom was very small. Mildew in the water faucets in the shower. Broken tiles in the bathroom. Stained couch cushions. We were so cramped we ended up leaving 4 nights early and checking in at another motel. They are refusing to give me money back. Booking.con gave us 97 00 and thats it. We will never stay herr again.Also, they were drying sheets outside by throwing them over a bush.

The room smelled and looked clean. It was nothing like the pictures. No housekeeping except for a bag of clean towels outside the door each day. You must sweep your own floor. Had a two bed room. Parking is tight. Had 4 motorcycles park in the spot right outside our door. Bathroom extremely small with a very small shower. I am only 5', 100 lbs. Don't see how a large person could use it. Huge TV on the wall did not work the entire time we were there. Only saving grace is it is on the beach and close to the Nags Head Pier which has a great bar/cafe. Would not recommend.

Being the type of person I am, cleanliness & customer service is a must when staying somewhere. And reviews play a huge part in deciding where we stay- And the reviews for this motel were just horrendous. I thought to myself, there is no way the few good reviews are real when there is so many bad reviews. But, due to specific circumstances, we stayed at this motel, regardless of how hesitant and fearful I was because of the bad reviews. AND Im so glad we stayed!!!! With 100% honesty, this motel was amazing! It checked all of the boxes! I believe they've gone under new management, and they did some renovations in 2021. Remodeled! And it was their best decision!!! The building is old BUT everything in it is modern! It is clean and homey. The staff we did interact with, we're extremely nice and personable! The bed was comfortable, sheets and towels were clean (despite what the reviews said). Floors were clean, and there was no bugs at all!!! The whole room was clean. I was 100% comfortable for our entire trip. They make you aware that they do not come into your room during your stay. If you read the sign in the lobby, they inform you that they service your room before and after your stay. And that if you need anything in the meantime, to call and they will get you whatever you need. leave your trash outside the door, and they will pick it up! There is trash bags in the trash cans. They also brought clean towels to the room half way through our stay.The location is absolutely phenomenal, best location that I've at stayed yet. It is right on the beach with private beach access, and they have an amazing pool right in the middle. It's so close to everything that the Outer Banks has to offer. As hard as it may be, overlook the bad reviews & give this place a chance. I'm not sure if there's been some changes since the bad reviews, but the reviews are far far from accurate! Thank you Colonial Inn for such an amazing stay! (also we stayed in the standard king room with the kitchenette, it had a FULL size kitchen and plenty of room) oh and of course, you can bring your fur babies for only a small extra fee!!

the only reason I didn't leave 0 stars is because it wasn't an option , we checked into the hotel and the floors were so slick you would literally slide on the floor ,and every couch was wet . we had young children and 5 minutes they were filthy . we called the front office to try and get a refund but they wouldn't even return our call . we left and went to another resort . the parking for any additional vehicles is approximately 1/2 mile from the resort
