Called at the last moment for my husband and my anniversary. The staff was friendly and helpful and found us a king room. Don't let the outer appearance fool you. Yes, it is an older motel. Yes, on the outside it is weather beaten. But inside it is spotlessly clean with high quality linens and a shower that is to... More

Only problem we encountered was the toilet acted like it was going overflow. Reported it to P.K. or front desk and she had it taken care of right away. The location is within walking distance of...

Made reservations for easter weekend and was unable to go. I called on Monday and canceled the reservation which was for Friday and Saturday. The motel charged me 1 nights stay stating they had a 10 day cancellation policy. I have never heard of anywhere having a 10 day cancellation policy. I was really looking forward to trying this motel... More

My wife and I stay at the Oceanview Inn mainly because of the location. The motel sits directly behind the Bogue Inlet Fishing Pier. Besides that, it is a nice motel and the personel are friendly and will try to accomadate you in any way they can. The rooms are clean and have coffee makers, microwaves and refridgerators in the...

This place is overpriced, charging what they do for one night. When walked into room you are overcome by a stench. There were cobwebs in the bathroom, and coffee left in the coffee pot. I would never go back.

This place is totally misrepresented in pictures. It is an old rundown motel where the owner put in new headboards and dressers, the carpet was nasty and the bathroom had rusty tubs. I was scheduled to stay 3 nights and when I got there it was all I could do to stay one...I proceeded to checkout the next AM and... More

This place charged luxury room rates for a second-rate motel, all because it has an "ocean view." Unfortunately the ocean is a block or so away & you can just see it from the 2nd floor. The staff was friendly, but that is the only good thing I could see about the place. It is a very old building &... More

We stayed here over the weekend for a girl's get away. The staff was soooooooo friendly, we really appreciate their tips on where to eat at! (Jordan's has really good seafood!) The hotel itself was nice. On the outside, it's a very simple motel. It's not a hike nor a long walk, but you do have to cross a parking... More
