I checked out the motels in Elizabeth City and found only two to my standards: the Holiday Inn Express and the Hampton Inn. The Hampton was quite a bit more expensive so I chose the Holiday Inn Express. It is located in the shadow of the now defunct and abandoned regional jail, but you wouldn't know it unless you were...

After a long day and not making it to where I wanted to be. Upon calling several hotels in this area I was meet with less than enthusiastic, frankly unfriendly staff until I called this property. Erin, was friendly,thoughtful and a delight to deal with. So I choose here. The property is ok, the rooms are a little dated (I... More

Holiday Inn Express in Elizabeth City NC is a good hotel for a short stay. Rooms are clean, instant hot water in shower. Very good breakfast with a friendly staff. The only reason property was not rated very good, no fridge or microwave in rooms. If you are looking for an extended stay hotel, while there are not many options... More

Driving over 12 hours to reach our Outer Banks Vacation home requires us to spend an overnight stay nearby so we can cross the bridge early Saturday morning (missing heavy traffic). We found this nearby hotel for Friday night and reserved three rooms. The hotel staff was very friendly, checked us in quickly, and our rooms were immaculate. There is... More

I arrived at 3:45pm to find out that the room wasn't ready. We waited a half hour in the lobby. Afterwhich we checked into a CLEAN room. Although I think it was overpriced... More

Staff were great so friendly, welcoming and helpful and gave a really good impression of the hotel that was maintained throughout the stay right up to check-out and it makes such a difference. We would certainly... More

We requested—and received—another room when the first one had a door that flapped and rattled every time somebody walked by. Both rooms had privacy locks that did not work. There was no comfortable seating or work area, just two small chairs at a small round table. A plus was 10 foot ceiling and two windows, but unfortunately the view was... More

The hallways were not a updated as we had hoped but the room was clean which is the most important feature for me. The bed was not as comfortable as other Holiday Inns that we have stayed at. Continental breakfast was nicely done. More

I'm used to staying at nice, more expensive hotels, but since this was a trip that was not planned or budgeted for, I went with this option. I didn't think about how this price of only $80/night would also attract some less than desirable patrons. From 11:30pm-1:30am, it sounded like someone was dribbling a basketball on our ceiling and running... More
