"Stayed for one night while in town to see The Lost Colony. The property is a vintage motor lodge. So the rooms show some wear and tear but the room was clean. The AC worked amazingly (which was a plus for me). The room I had was a small room but as a single traveler they may have put me in a smaller room."
