Top Nags Head Hotel Reviews

Dolphin Oceanfront Motel

Dolphin Oceanfront Motel

8/10 Good
"The location of the hotel is excellent and was one of the things we liked the most\. The atmosphere is very quiet and relaxed, and you have a lot of freedom without anyone bothering you\. The staff was also very friendly, and the hotel is truly pet\-friendly, which was a big plus for us since we were traveling with our dogs\. On the other hand, the cleanliness was disappointing\. The bathroom had a strong urine smell, and some of the towels were already dirty even though we had not used them, which was unpleasant\. Another thing that could be improved is the TV, as it would be nice to have streaming options such as Netflix\. Overall, we really liked the location, the peaceful atmosphere, and how welcoming they were with our dogs, but I do think they need to pay much more attention to the cleanliness of the rooms\."
