The Inn at Southport

I was in Room #1. The bedroom was spacious, well-lit, clean, simply and tastefully decorated. TV worked well. The climate control was not very clear but the room was comfortable enough. I had a good sleep. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS ROOM OR THIS MOTEL FOR PEOPLE WITH MOBILITY ISSUES OR RELATED DISABILITIES. There is no front desk and I never saw any staff during my stay (@29 hours overnight). Communication is, apparently, entirely by text. if you don't have a smart phone you're out of luck. I phoned and Emailed from home a few days ahead of time and did get helpful responses, plus a handwritten welcome message when I arrived. On arrival I fortunately found a vacant parallel parking space in front of my room. However, I dared not move my car from the space because it's not reserved for my room, and parking seems to be at a premium. I saw no handicapped spaces indicated anywhere on the premises. In front of my room, there is a roughly 9-10" step up from the parking pavement to the walk in front of the room, and I had to reposition my car close enough that I could boost myself up to the walk. I saw no other steps, no ramp, no handrails anywhere. The bathroom is clean but tiny. (Photo misleads.) The toilet is in a recess about 24" wide. I could use it standing, but I was afraid to sit on it because there were no handgrips or other assistance for standing. Shower @ 24x30" -- I passed on using it. Not friendly for disabled people. My mistake. Won't repeat.

The staff came out to greet us and give us our code so that we could get into our room although we will only spent one night it was very quiet and very convenient for our travels

Well situated location w/responsive staff. However, it is an older property which needs extra care, reeks of ****, has zero amenities & frankly I suspect the owner is allowing it to go to seed. It could be a great property w/some TLC & added staff, likewise the check in @ 4 & checkout @ 10 are the worst I’ve seen

Awesome stay The staff here was extremely organized and friendly. I had an issue with the toilet in my room and at 3:00 am helped me with this. They also assisted me in getting a unit with more room for us. Love this place.

Great location convenient to eateries and pubs. Communication was excellent with easy check in. The room was very clean, bright, and cozy.

Absolutely loved my stay at the Inn and visiting the surrounding area/ beaches. Exactly what I needed. Very cute, safe, clean, and convenient. True to pictures. Owner super helpful, polite and responsive. Southport is a cozy, inviting and relaxing little waterfront town. Looking forward to staying here again. My only issue, the shower (and bathroom) is very small, hard to wash my hair, couldn't really shave my legs. But still got the job done.
