The Scarborough Inn offers a budget-friendly stay in Manteo with a convenient location and generally clean rooms. However, recent reviews highlight issues with inconsistent check-in procedures via a kiosk, occasional HVAC problems, and outdated room amenities. Despite these concerns, many guests appreciate the inn’s helpful owner and overall value, particularly for those seeking an affordable base for exploring the Outer Banks.
What a find in a tourist area: a warm, inviting, immaculate room with an exceptionally kind, generous host. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, the room was spacious and well lit, and the price was affordable. Add an eagle's nest, a beautiful sunrise, and a good all-around restaurant across the street and you're ready to explore the Outer Banks without spending all your budget on lodging. Del, we hope to see you next year!
Alright ...i am not the type to leave yall hanging for the price i would stay here again but this room needs some work. Number 4 has No fan in bathroom so you have to open the window the steam from the shower is too much for the nonfunctioning a/c but the window fails to remain open in the back while the window in the front is screwed shut. ? ......okay trying to sleep now a couple hours later than the original post but the ac isnt working and im frusterated because its cooler outside.. the staff screwed the window shut so now i have to stand guard at the open front door of our room while my kids and wife try to sleep. IS IT EVEN LEGAL TO LITERALLY SCREW THE WINDOWS SHUT??? The Fire chief of manteo may need to come check out this place. I hate to leave negative comments but i have to be honest with you so you dont make the mistake that i did. Room 4 has a BROKEN HVAC i have to GO TO SLEEP but the door is still open for ventilation...i am being bit by mosquitos. Okay ...now its morning and its nice and cool outside and tollerable inside....i dont regret staying here because its clean and has a good location. Other than the neglected HVAC described above. I WOULD STAY HERE AGAIN BUT IM BRINGING MY OWN AIRCONDITIONER.
Stayed one night at the Scarborough Inn. It was a pleasant experience. A simple but quaint room. Very clean, quiet, and a great location to wander around Manteo. Dill was very kind and suggested places around town to make our trip even better. I had read up on previous reviews before our trip but we still gave it a chance. They appear to have addressed the previous issues to make it better for future guests.
I stayed in this place about 5 years ago. Since then it's went down hill. The rooms are older without any updates. Front door on ours had a gap under the front door that you could put a finger under and there wasn't too much of a seal around the rest of the door. Could barely understand the person at the desk. The smell that came from there was so strong because of the background of the people, just took our breath away. Bed furniture doesn't match and are short and mattresses wasn't very comfortable. Will not stay here again.
The owner is very helpful and friendly and gave good tips on places to eat. The rooms were very clean. The bed was very comfortable and there was minimal noise at night considering we were right on the road side of the property. Thanks for your hospitality.
Thank you Scarborough Inn and Thank you Mr. Dill to take us in on such short notice! We stayed at the Scarborough Inn without doing our research and Mr. Dill and the Scarborough Inn more than exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed our first night so much that we decided to stay 4 days longer. The rooms were Exceptionally clean and we were treated great! Definitely worth coming back!
Dill and his wife were very nice, our stay was awesome. We had room number 3 " All hale praise Dale!" and it was a nice room with comfortable beds. My GF wanted to take the quilt home it was so comfortable, but we aren't into stealing stuff. Definitely would stay again. Dill you the man!!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Scarborough Inn. The room was quaint and very clean. It was a standard room, but lovely. The area was quiet and it's near to everything on OBX. The manager, Dill, was very helpful and friendly and accommodating. The rates were very inexpensive, although there wasn't a kitchenette, a microwave and fridge were provided. Thanks again Dill!!!
Dill is the man! He made our stay awesome! After my recent stay here, I have a new best friend by the name of Dill. Dill was awesome!! He literally attended to our every need, from efficiently booking the most appropriate rooms for us, to ensuring we had adequate parking for our boat, to personally escorting us to our very nice, clean, spacious rooms (#17 & 18), to accommodating an unexpected early checkout due to a bit of a family emergency, he could not have been more helpful! No more automated kiosk as mentioned in earlier reviews, but true customer service! Rooms were very clean and spacious. Even the grounds and landscaping was very well maintained. I’m an older fellow who has traveled quite a bit, and I appreciate nice comfortable lodging and good customer service and I feel that is exactly what The Scarborough Inn provided for me at a very economical price during my recent stay there. What more could you ask for? My fishing buddies and I will definitely be returning again in the near future.
Dill the owner was really nice! He had Great destination recommendations, and the rooms were clean and very comfortable! The location is Prime being in walking distance of restaurants, and shops, and is right off the interstate. The vintage vibe in the rooms are definitely my favorite part about this place, it has Stunning vintage antique furniture and decor. Would Highly recommend!!
