The room was nice, but having a king size bed in a room with no other room to move around, it needed more space inside the room. You couldn't walk around the room itself, the room was to small for a king sized bed. I wouldn't stay in that room again, other than that it was good, because we are older, we stay in the hotel room more than others. So, it wasn't to our standards.

Newly renovated and super nice!!! Great amenities, in walking distance of many restaurants and shops. Right on the boardwalk. Nice rocking chairs outside of the room. Highly enjoyed our trip and we were very pleased with the accommodations. Will stay again.

Great place with updated, clean rooms. We loved all the little touches. We came early, so I wish there was a place to change, but all the outdoor spaces were great. Convenient to many things!

Awesome place nothing but friendly people around here and great atmosphere. However there just isnt any office which gives off an unprotected or no help feeling. No one to really call if you wish to discuss an issue or anything. Just wish there was an office staff it is a hotel otherwise lovely expirence. Great area i do recommend to others just maybe not in busy seasons. Love the rooms decor and amenities will definitely consider staying again.

Beautiful Retro Beach Hotel.

Ive traveled extensively for work and play, so the franchise hotels get a little boring. I was in Carolina Beach NC, and this little place pops onto my screen. I liked the colors and the theme, so I booked it for a couple of nights. Pulling in and parking, I immediately felt like I was back in my childhood at one of those places that dotted the beach everywhere. Entering the room, I found a brand new renovation complete with higher end fixtures. The fridge and microwave were completely retro. The beds are quite comfortable and thebroom was clean. The location is perfect as it sits right on the Boardwalk. I was able to park and walk everywhere i wanted to go including work. This will not be the last time I stay there. The staff is equally as awesome. I checked in online and they sent me thebdoor code. Received good morning texts asking how my stay was, and giving tips on where to eat and things to do. Again thoroughly awesome. Do yourself a favor and check out this little gem.

We live a small motel and have been bring our kids to CB for MANY years (they’re now grown)-the boardwalk inn was beautifully remodeled and so close to the boardwalk to the arcade and restaurants…and the beach! Having the dog run was perfect for a quick bathroom break for our pup and all the different sitting areas meant you could spread out…we lived sitting in our rocking chairs on the porch (we were in #6 so we were second floor at the end so no one was walking by so Milo could sit out there with us. They had the grand opening while we were there and there was food and drink and everyone was friendly and nice! Don’t pass this one up-it’s affordable and convenient to everything!
