We enjoyed our stay overall, but they took 1 more hour than what they have posted to let us check in.

The Days Inn Mariner is in a good location close to the beach. Easy to get to. The pricing off season was good. A few restaurants nearby. McDonald's, Dairy Queen, Pizza Hut,Burger King, Five Guys. There are good full service restaurants close by also. Other amenities nearby Walgreens, CVS, Harris Teeter. Movie Theater. The location is near the Wright Brother National Memorial.

The continental breakfast was worth it. My only complaint is the room smelled like smoke. The hotel allows smoking in their rooms for an additional fee. If you do not smoke like me you run the chance of smelling smoke during your stay. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. I had to borrow odor neutralizer as the regular store in the area were closed because it was later Thanksgiving Day so I couldn't buy Frebreze. The front desk offered to move me to another room if I couldn't get rid of the smoky smells. If you book your room directly they will charge you a $1.13 a day fee.

Has outdoor pool

In a pinch I may stay here again but, this place wouldn't be my first choice in this area.

Have been going to this hotel since 1977. It is not the fanciest but it is consistent. Has had many upgrades, linens, breakfast (waffles), afternoon popcorn/snacks, tea/coffee available all day. This is one of a few hotels that offer kitchen/suites and is available by the day. Also reservations can be cancelled if necessary (unlike private home reservations). Perfect view, nice staff.

Rooms were clean, but slightly musty (attributed this to the beach more than anything). Nice continental breakfast, friendly helpful staff. Will ask for ground floor room next time since the steps are no placed conveniently for upper floors. Beds were more comfortable than most hotels that I have stayed in. I didn't wake up stiff like I do at most hotels.
