Very enjoyable stay, Breakfast was awesome , everything was as it should be and expected always a great stay here , always try to stay here then anywhere in Havelock .
friendly staff and quiet atmosphere. easy to get to and was near everything we needed. the restaurant in front of the hotel was walkable and delicious! i got to check in hours early and that was so helpful in our plans. room was clean and comfy beds.
All staff was friendly and helpful. TV remote did not work properly but that is really the only issue to bring up. Room was clean and hotel was overall very clean. Breakfast was also good.
The hotel was clean, staff friendly and helpful, and our room had everything we needed. Oh, and breakfast was delicious, hot and ready, nice and early! We only stayed one night, but we'll definitely be back here next time we visit our daughter.
I booked through Expedia and I was told when I arrived that it would have been better to book through their site directly as I would have saved on the daily room rate. I was also told that as someone who booked on a 3rd party site, I was not considered priority to receive one of the better rooms. That did not make sense since I paid more.
The room I received was musty. As soon as we opened the door, the musty smell hit us. There were scented plugins but it did not mask the musk smell well. You can also tell that the room was dated as the walls had empty areas where picture frames or mirrors might have been. The carpet was ripped up in different areas of the room. The TV was old. The sink area in the kitchenette had warped cabinets and countertop. The cabinet where the TV sat on also smelled like musk. I mean, as soon as you open a drawer or cabinet door, the smell just hit you; it was so strong.
We were there while it rained. The hotel did not advertise that we would have a concert of frogs croaking all night. This let us know that the room was not sound proof at all. We could hear everything outside our room.
The pool is nice but there are no lights available at night. The pool is advertised to close around 9 or 10pm. Why not turn on the lights in the pool area? We tried to find the light switch with no luck.
Would I stay here again? No and that is just due to the property itself. It is dated and bordering as a motel rather than a hotel. The staff was great!
Routine upkeep . Dead bolt on the door did not work. Ac unit very noisy had to turn off to sleep. Chair for desk are looks like it was totn up by a wild animal
Very outdated, barking dogs on 3rd floor all night long. Refrigerator was broken, tile shower shelves broken. Tv was from 25 yrs ago. Stained carpet, stained pull out bed.

At first glance the room, lobby, pool area were very nice. The breakfast was fulfilling. I appreciated the complimentary water bottles. The bed was lumpy, the AC was extremely loud, and there was a yappy dog.
