Comfort Inn South Oceanfront, Nags Head

we had a ocean front room and my newly wed daughter spent her honeymoon there 4/10/2010.We all loved the peace and quite and the room allowed us to take our small dog oceanfront.That was important to us because most places want to put u in the back.We enjoyed our stay completly

We stayed at the Comfort Inn South last year for my b-day and we loved it! Yes it is older and needs repair. It was raining really bad one night and our window leaked, but they helped us with that problem. We had a great time and we will stay here again. Sounds like the people that gave negative reviews were just pissed off to begin with and then you see nothing positive about anything! If you want deluxe stay at the Ramada or Raddisson. If you want friendly and comfortable stay here! We'll be back and we can't wait! :-)

My teenage daughter and I, have just return from a weekend at the Comfort Inn South at Nags Head, NC. It was amazing! Their front desk associates were extremely nice, positive, smiling and helpful! They engaged a conversation with my teenage daughter Karen. That was so refreshing for her and made us feel very welcome. They talked about surfing and the staff made recommendations for clothing stores and local sport supply outlets. My mother made our reservation for two rooms for my family and I and I have requested an adjoining room so Karen could walk back and forth from each room. The hotel not just had my request but since they found out how much we love the ocean they upgraded us to an Oceanfront view room! Comfort Inn South's location is unbelievable! As we walk out from the hotel, we could literally walk into the ocean. We spent seven days at the hotel. The house keeping staff was excellent! The rooms were neatly clean and smelled wonderful every time we returned. We had the best Oceanfront Comfort experience in a while!

My husband and I, planned our OBX trip at the very last minute. We wanted to visit Nags Head, NC for the weekend and have a peacefull getaway. Having been there and knowing that most of the hotel rooms are over-priced I found Comfort Inn South from the choicehotels.com webpage to be very unexpensive. As soon as we got there we knew we made the right choice. This hotel was so surprisingly charming for an older Inn. The staff was amazing, friendly, and kind. They told us that the hotel was just remodeled and now we could enjoy a room with a brand new furniture and design. They even had recovered from November's storm and built a brand new deck !!! With all the amenities and comfort of a modern hotel room including a jacuzzi and ultra-comfortable bed we felt like we hit the lottery there. The weather was unbelievable, sunny and worm. The beach access was probably 30 seconds away from the hotel and we just couln't ask for more. Heather, the front desk associate, has lived on Nags Head and Hatteras Island for many years so her knowledge of the history and culture of the OBX along with the restaurant recommendations were much appreciated and we really enjoyed our conversations with her. She trully spoiled us with attention and pleasant conversations. My husband and I would recommend the Comfort Inn South as a romantic getaway, for those unfamiliar with the OBX or just looking for a different beach experience from the condo room scene. As a couple of Mariland, my husband and I were happy to be in this beautiful beach area and glad we found this charming inn.

What did I like? Price. What did I dislike? You name it. Building is old and in bad shape. Walking down the halls you could feel the cracks in the concrete floors under the carpet. The outside wall in the room I stayed in (708) was cracked at the floor and the paint was falling off. The bathtub was dirty, the shower had such low water pressure that I thought I would not get the shampoo out of my hair. The water temp. was warm at best. The "free" breakfast was not much. I could go on and on but you get the idea. When my brother and I got back from the free breakfast there was a bug crawling across his pillow. My brother and I agreed we would not stay there again and certainly would not take our families there.

For the price we paid for a room for 2 nights, we were VERY disappointed. The floor in the bathroom was sticky and dirty, as was the sink and tub. The carpet was also dirty. The ceiling looked like it could fall in at any moment. On the second day of my visit, I requested 2 extra washcloths. The RUDE lady at the front desk said there weren't any available and commented "Weren't there washcloths provided already?". Although the location of this hotel was good, I would NEVER recommend it to anyone.

I'm not very prissy but this was absolutely the worst hotel experience I have ever had. The condition of the physical building and rooms is appalling. It seems that there is no upkeep! The carpet in the room was just plain dirty. We found multiple large bugs in our bathroom and the drop ceiling in the bathroom was about to collapse - one of the ceiling tiles was full of water and dripping onto the toilet seat. Just disgusting! The room had large gaps in the walls around the windows and electrical outlets. The door to the room didn't open all of the way...and was not cut to match the door frame. I can't believe this hotel stays in business!

I know about the old saying "you get what you pay for", but now I know what it means "not to get what you pay for." My daughter and niece and I were taking a trip throughout the Outer Banks and needed to stay one night in Nags Head. If you have ever been to Nags Head, you know there are limited comerical places to stay, besides the many condos in the area. So, I guess if you are the only game in Town, you charge whatever you want. I paid over &170.00 for a double bed room that was not ocean front. The hotel was not clean, it was run down, smelly, the pool was almost large enough to get wet in. The doors would not shut, which ones you ask, almost all of them. Construction was going on the outdoor deck due to some hurricane that occured sometime in history. The elevators were slower than molasses in January. This place even made the Atlantic Ocean look bad. The staff was very nice, but who cares, I'll take less expensive rates over a cool staff person any day. If you want to run a run down and I mean a "run down" hotel, thats fine, just don't charge rates that are way beyond your capabilites. If you chose to stay at this place, when you pull up to unload, just get you a very sharpe stick and stick yourself somewhere and then it will be less painfull when the nice desk clerk drops the rate bomb on you.

I really enjoyed our stay due to the wonderful location, view and awesome front desk staff!! The hotel itself has been run down without the maintenance it needs. It does appear like it could fall into the ocean on one side if storm erosion continues. Such a shame since it is the best location on Nags Head shores. Did not see bugs, like others stated in reviews, did have one persistent fly in our room. Bed were good in our room (Room 617) but overall the room is run down, like the hotel. Clean enough, but needing paint and overall remodeling. If you get a good rate and are not used to the Marriott only - try a stay here for the location. We are sorry to leave today back to Las Vegas (home). If I would have read these reviews FIRST I wouldn't have stayed here. BUT I am glad I did stay here, it worked out well for us and we had a memorible stay and fun in the Outer Banks and on the beach. LOTS of dophins - hundreds we watched from the balcony room (oceanside room). Hope my review helps someone else make up their mind too.

So I'm going to describe this place in the order of events that happened. First of all, the luggage carts could barely make it to the room. They were ragged and about to fall apart. Also they would barely fit in the small elevators. The lady at check-in was very rude and not accommodating. The deck and pool were closed due to damage from the ocean. This damage occurred sometime late last year and the hotel still hasn’t fixed the deck and pool. The room we stayed in was around $150.00/night. When we arrived in the room it was in very poor shape. The door handle was loose and about to fall on the floor. The bathroom facet was detached from the countertop. The wall outlets were loose and would barely hold a plug into them. Water was leaking onto the bathroom ceiling tiles. The window area was very ragged looking with cracks and very bad workmanship. We also requested towels in the morning and the front desk said they didn't have any that were clean. My cousin rented the Neptune room for a wedding reception and there were flies all over the place. The coolers they provided for beverages did not have tops on them so the ice was melting. All in all, this place needs much improvement before I would ever even consider staying here again. I also wouldn't recommend using this place for a wedding or any other event. I have stayed at the Holiday Inn, Colony IV, and Ocean Reef many times and these places are much better than this Comfort Inn. For the price, this place was a rip off. As for the positive, the location is pretty good b/c it’s close to Oregon Inlet, Manteo, and all the stores on the Bypass (MP 10). Also the hot tub in the room was nice and worked well. One or two of the staff were nice, mainly the ones working in the morning. That’s about it for the positive.
