Comfy studio and conveniently located to shopping and a short walk to public beach access. Nice place to stay and pet friendly. Had a nice time and appreciated the engagement with the host prior to and during my stay.

Very clean and comfortable, just across the Virginia Dare Trail from the Glidden Beach access. The king size bed was quite comfortable, and the small loveseat was adequate for watching TV on rainy afternoons and evenings. The kitchen was small with the basic tools needed for a weeklong trip for two people. The Dunes restaurant is basically right next door, and the outlet mall is just across the highway. The communication was clear, friendly, and proactive. I was particularly grateful for that when we inadvertently locked ourselves out and Lisa came right away to let us in. This is perfect for a stay in Nags Head, and I look forward to a return visit!

PROs - Location, location, location. Off the main drag, but without road noise, and walkable to public beach access, Jeanette's Pier, restaurants and shops. Fairly clean, and convenient having a kitchenette and some dishes. Helpful that the TV swivels for viewing from the dinette and from the bed (since you can't really watch it from the couch). Great that we were able to bring our pup, and there was a small grassy area out back. The mattress was comfy. Complementary gift certificate for 1/2 dozen Duck Donuts was a nice touch.
CONs - NO Soundproofing to speak of. If there is a tenant in the upstairs rental, You Will Hear Everything. Every footstep, discussion, television show...and loudly. Our dog was concerned, thinking strangers were trying to break in (much barking ensued). Very little sleep while they were there (first night). Apartment clean and appeared to be fairly recently updated, but the place had an underlying scent - worn and tired, like damp basement and old ashtrays. The bedspread has seen better days. Modestly appointed kitchenette; dishes were sparse and there was little mismatched cutlery. Had trouble navigating the Roku and a message to the host went unanswered, but we finally saw instructions on the back of the channel guide and figured it out.
All in all, a decent stay for the price, like going to a roadside motel from the 70s that has had a cosmetic makeover. It's okay, but we won't be back.
