Really comfortable room - two good beds. More clothes hangers than in many an expensive hotel room. Spacious and warm. Great for a family visiting the Outer Banks. Pool is across from the car park - looked inviting but we were only there for one night. Would have stayed longer if we had had the time.

Comfort zone

Please bear with me as this will be a long review because this place deserves it!!! We were on the 7:30 ferry over to Ocracoke and I get a text ( the hotel had tried to call, I didn't hear it due to the noise from the ferry engine) from the mgr at the hotel and I called her back right away. She was calling to let us know about the conditions on the island and what was going on at the hotel. She told us that there was some over  wash on the roads and that if we wanted to we could cancel without penalty and that they had already notified Booking.com to allow this to happen if we wanted to cancel. We called her back once we got to Ocracoke to get clarification of what was going on and we told her that we were on the ferry at the time of the call and could she please tell us what was going on again. She once again explained to us what was going on and we told her we had just literally just got off the ferry and she told us that we needed to get on one of the next to ferries to Hatteras or we may be get stuck on Ocracoke so we decided wth lets go and roll with the punches. We get to the Inn and get checked in and were given a room with a view of the ocean who was quite angry but beautiful at the same time. The housekeepers helped us with our things which was a pleasant surprise. We got settled in and went to lunch at Diamond Shoals that Robin ( Mgr) had recommended and it did not disappoint. We later made out way to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse.  
The room was comfortable, we had a King room with a sofa. the shampoo/conditioner and bodywash is located on the wall on the bathtub ( Carnival Cruise lines does this also, so it wasn't weird to me). The coffee pot was located on a shelf underneath the microwave and above the fridge. We never lacked for space in this room and had a beautiful view.
Checkout was a breeze and if I have a chance to go back I will. I live in a tourist area so I know to visit in the off season.

Lighthouse Crawl

Inn appeared welcoming from outside. We found the inside not as comfortable.  Toilet and mirror dirty. Deadbolt was discovered to be faulty late in the evening. No one present to bring concerns to…communication through a kiosk. Bed was comfy enough and that was the central purpose.  Busy season so we were unable to move elsewhere during this two night stay.  We will not frequent this Inn again

Lack of attention

I stayed here for five days initially when I got there, the place was clean. However, I did not have housekeeping come to the room one time while staying there. Also, they have a self-serve kiosk upfront very impersonal, which is fine because I came in at 2 AM. Over priced paid what I would pay to stay at the Hampton Inn but I guess that’s what you get for staying at the Outer Banks. It’s not a bad hotel, but way over priced.

Dont expect Housekeeping while you stay here

Not as advertised. Specifically asked for handicapped accessible room and received a confirmation. The rooms are NOT handicapped accessible. In addition they advertise breakfast-again NO breakfast, not even coffee.  The rooms were clean and comfortable and we made it work but would not have chosen this hotel if we had known those details.  

Not as advertised

This hotel has the most comfortable mattress that I have ever slept on. My husband and I enjoyed our stay.Staff was proffessional and pleasant.The hotel and area have a laid back yet proffessional vibe. We absolutely loved the fact that we could see the sunrise from our hotel room window,since we stayed on the second floor. We will definitely be staying here again.

Comfortable beds

Not sure what some of these reviews are about- but we just stayed at the Hatteras Island Inn and it was absolutely fine. Its not a 4 star hotel, its a basic motel.  For the price, it is clean, modern and what one would expect. The carpets were not gross, the TV was nice, the bathroom was clean, the linens were new and clean, the AC worked, it didn't smell, the bed and pillows were comfortable.  The pool is nice, too... its close to the beach and the staff was helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who just needs an affordable place to sleep while they enjoy Hatteras.  Bonus is you can walk over to Diamond Shoals for a really good breakfast, lunch or dinner!

Its absolutely fine...

Get the second floor if you want clean; first has suffered too many surges. I booked at the end of April for a June 3rd stay. I called twice in the month of May with questions, trying to determine the details of the property. People answering were vague and I should have seen the red flag and canceled then. Pictures make it look luxurious and possibly worth the $329 I was charged. Deceptive. It claims to be 600 feet from the beach but no water in sight. It's a very basic motor lodge, which I discovered only after I arrived. Two days before when I arrived in North Carolina, I had called again, having seen the pricing was way lower for my night. The person said wait till I arrive to sort it out. (It was one day too late for canceling by that time.) When I arrived and saw what I would get for $371 after tax, I felt cheated. The price was currently $149 for my room. No one on site had any power to rectify. In fact, you checked in with someone remotely. I was given an email address and that person politely wrote back that if I sent my reservation and check-in info he would look into it. Never heard back so yesterday I called a phone number from his email. Fortunately it was legit, but I got the news that too bad I booked that price. BEWARE!

Clean and basic; luxury price

We made the reservation last minute based on what we saw on-line. We also didn’t know there was a storm on the way and they could have told us we could be stuck on the island is we booked there. Disadvantage of being out of town. The room was awful, wasn’t close to the pictures on-line and we were worried about getting trapped on the island so we left without spending the night. We both felt ripped-off by this hotel. My pictured are of the actual room. We felt like they took advantage of us as we were from out of town. It looks like we would have been stuck there for a few days if we stayed. I would hesitate to stay in this area unless you have a clear window on weather and avoid this hotel.

What an awful place and they could have told us we may be stuck there when we made the reservation.

A fine reasonable choice, worth the money.  I liked the Keurig machine, with a good selection of coffees and a tea.  The beds were comfortable, the refrigerator and microwave worked fine.  Everything in order, just about what you would expect.  Good location.
