This is a very old hotel right next to the beach, our room was clean and comfortable however if you are barefoot you will feel sand on the floor. Parking was difficult when you leave because of the way it was done. Easy drive to the outer banks to see the Wright Brothers area. Good restaurants in the area.

It looks old given the name "colonial" Inn. Easy access from roads. Free parking right next to your room. Atlantic Ocean is right behind the property. So it was easier to walk to the beach. Person incharge checking in was polite and friendly. Summer here is very crowded but it was a peaceful room to rest and sleep. Price was much reasonable than other fancy options in the area.
