There was no toilet paper in the room. There were smaller bath towels and very rough ones at that. No clean towels the second day. Room wasn't cleaned the next day. There was shampoo but no conditioner. Toilet seat was loose. The ceiling above the bathtub was coming down in one corner. Couldn't call the front desk to let them know of any problems. The attendant was apparently taking a shower when we were trying to check-in, late afternoon. There was someone else's ear bud, that was apparently left behind, laying on top of the plastic bag for the ice bucket and the ice machine didn't work. The outside of the building looked like we were in a ghost town and it looked very unsafe outside. Not the most pleasant place to stay and will never do it again. First time working with Expedia and most likely the last time.

I agree with others comments. The property is older, but it appears to be family owned and well cared for. Room very clean and staff pleasant. It is basic, no frills and I slept well.

You get what you pay for
For an overnight stay it was convienient in location, bed was surprising comfortable. It is an older type motel but served its purpose. Toilet didn't flush at first n had to jiggle the flap inside to work. Shower was great! You get what you pay for. you want fringe...pay more but this did work for us this time

The property was fine, the rooms were clean, and the staff was nice. My only issue was the door to the bathroom did not shut easily it had to be forced shut or forced open to use it and with small children it wasn't easy for them to open or shut completely. Other than that I had no issues with the property.

Room was clean and bed was very comfortable. AC was great and kept the room super cool. Only concern was cleanliness of office. There were some bugs as you walk in which can scare you into thinking the rooms will be the same but the rooms were great. Area seems a little sketchy since it’s hidden but there are a lot of shops and dining options nearby. Overall a great stay and you can’t beat it for the price. Staff was very friendly too you can tell they appreciate the business.

Meets Basic Needs.
It’s a cheaply priced hotel in Tarboro, NC. Room was comfortable and quiet. Plenty of food options nearby. Air worked fine, water pressure was good. No complaints from me on the stay. Those expecting a Hilton or Marriott are foolish.

It was OK
The stray was ok. When I arrived my fire alarm in the room was beeping. The hotel clerk came into my room push the button to make it stop by 6 o'clock the next morning it was beeping again in which case woke me up. Along with the trash truck emptying the dumpster at 5:30 in the morning. So it was ok for a night. Did not stay the serving like plan bc of the noise

Rt. 64 via Tarboro is an expedient way to get to the Outer Banks. Do not judge a book by its cover as to this property! The onsite Office Manager cares about this place! Clean room, very comfortable mattress, sports complex and golf course with practice facility, and many dining options nearby.

Nice place, no frills, good value for the price
OK, it’s not a four star hotel. But then again, it’s cheap and the A/C works, so what do you expect for 50 bucks? Plus the TV works, they have a dorm fridge and the shower is great! (no kidding, strong water pressure just like I want). Bed was OK, not great but not terrible, no mice or spiders or crabs to ruin your day, and lots of safe parking. If you’re trying to save money, this place is just fine and you can keep most of your per diem. Recommended.
