Holiday Inn Express Nags Head Oceanfront by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"The weather did not cooperate the week we stayed here due to a Nor'easter parked off of the coast of New York. But, the views from our oceanside room were spectacular (if 6-8 ft. waves thrill you). Room was clean, water was hot, and breakfast was good."
