Awesome stay
The staff here was extremely organized and friendly. I had an issue with the toilet in my room and at 3:00 am helped me with this. They also assisted me in getting a unit with more room for us. Love this place.

Well situated location w/responsive staff. However, it is an older property which needs extra care, reeks of weed, has zero amenities & frankly I suspect the owner is allowing it to go to seed. It could be a great property w/some TLC & added staff, likewise the check in @ 4 & checkout @ 10 are the worst I’ve seen

Great spot, walkable to everything. Will be back.
Really friendly staff with clear and useful communication. They had good recommendations for restaurants and places to see. Super convenient location and a great price for a last minute, holiday weekend trip. They had bikes to borrow and water for us in the fridge after a hot hot day. This was a pretty no-frills room but had everything we needed and the staff is definitely going the extra mile to make sure you’re happy.

Absolutely loved my stay at the Inn and visiting the surrounding area/ beaches. Exactly what I needed. Very cute, safe, clean, and convenient. True to pictures. Owner super helpful, polite and responsive. Southport is a cozy, inviting and relaxing little waterfront town. Looking forward to staying here again. My only issue, the shower (and bathroom) is very small, hard to wash my hair, couldn't really shave my legs. But still got the job done.

This is a very comfortable property in the main part of this small town. It seems that the owner made a recent and very considerable investment to update the rooms and the results are outstanding. The room was spotless and very comfortable. They have a contactless check in procedure and it worked flawlessly. Would recommend.

Cute little retro motel with a lot of personal touches. A handwritten note.. a text from the hotel to make sure everything was ok and asking if we needed anything. The aroma 360 in the room was also a nice touch. The inn was walking distance from everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Cute and clean retro motel
The Inn at Southport is a great little motel well situated in historic downtown Southport. Shops, restaurants and waterfront are all within walking distance. The marina to catch a ferry to Bald Head Island was only a few short miles. The motel was exceptionally clean and smelled wonderful! The staff was extraordinary, checking in with us via text to see if we needed anything. It was such a personal touch you don't get with big hotels. Every night they had a mini "bon-file" going, which is perfect for roasting marshmallows! The traffic was a bit noisy at night, but we took an extra white noise maker which blocked out most of the traffic sounds. We would totally stay here again, and it's perfect for a short weekend stay or a longer visit if coming to one of the fun festivals! Nice visit and motel stay all the way around!
