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.

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.

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

Super cute and quaint place to stay. Customer service was great. Downside was the bathroom was really tiny with no tub for my 5 year old, but that wasn’t a dealbreaker.

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.

I was in Room #1. The bedroom was spacious, well-lit, clean, simply and tastefully decorated. TV worked well. The climate control was not very clear but the room was comfortable enough. I had a good sleep. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS ROOM OR THIS MOTEL FOR PEOPLE WITH MOBILITY ISSUES OR RELATED DISABILITIES. There is no front desk and I never saw any staff during my stay (@29 hours overnight). Communication is, apparently, entirely by text. if you don't have a smart phone you're out of luck. I phoned and Emailed from home a few days ahead of time and did get helpful responses, plus a handwritten welcome message when I arrived. On arrival I fortunately found a vacant parallel parking space in front of my room. However, I dared not move my car from the space because it's not reserved for my room, and parking seems to be at a premium. I saw no handicapped spaces indicated anywhere on the premises. In front of my room, there is a roughly 9-10" step up from the parking pavement to the walk in front of the room, and I had to reposition my car close enough that I could boost myself up to the walk. I saw no other steps, no ramp, no handrails anywhere. The bathroom is clean but tiny. (Photo misleads.) The toilet is in a recess about 24" wide. I could use it standing, but I was afraid to sit on it because there were no handgrips or other assistance for standing. Shower @ 24x30" -- I passed on using it. Not friendly for disabled people. My mistake. Won't repeat.

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.

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.
