Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Had a mix of good and bad reviews on Google but new management has made a huge change. Rooms are cleaner and it doesn't attract the crowd it used to. Worth checking out if your looking for a budget hotel.

The view was nice and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The hotel representatives were very pleasant in helping you with what you need. The breakfast bar was nice and the bar. They had a variety of drinks for visitors. I also like how they had it marked off for our protection while work was being done outside the building.

Working in the area after hurricane Florence and this was the only hotel available in my price range. Found a much better place nearby for the same money and checked out after two nights. I won't be back

Non smoking room smelt of smoke and damp. Door was just about hanging on its hinges. Burn holes in bed counterpane. Disused pool looked less inviting than a southern swamp full of gators. How do these places stay open? Are they ever inspected? I actually put the table against the door when I went to bed. I wouldn't suggest you stay here.

Non Smoking room smelled like smoke, cigarette burn holes in the bed sheet, sticky bathroom floor, hair in the bath sink................... with so many doubts, I acturally slept on top of the bed comforter. Owned and operated by a foreign culture who appeared completely uninterested with consumer satisfaction

Needed a place to stay late at night so I figured, how bad can it be. It was bad. After a five dollar up charge for non smoking room, the room still smelled of mildew, cigarette holes in everything, all faucets corroded, remote didn't work. There actually wasn't anything positive about this place, except the long broken pool had a bunch of huge bullfrog that were interesting to look at for a couple of minutes! This place should be looked at by new bern health dept.

I don't know how they stay in business . We live nearby and wouldn't put our dogs up there. We drive by regularly..there are few cars, occasionally people sitting in front of a room smoking, drinking, looking as run down as the building and grounds. The pool in front, well, looks like it's been a long, long time since it's seen anything but rain water. I have seen welfare hotels in ghettos that looked better. Once I had to drop off a patient of the office I work at there. Had no idea what a dummy I was being. The patient told me to not get out of the car and look the doors. Not safe!
