Sea Building 505

This room had a very good view of the ocean to the left but a huge sand dune blocked view to the right of porch deck bottom floor. If choosing a bottom floor in the Sea Building, keep this in mind.
We enjoyed being able to step off our porch onto the sand. The room setup was nice. Bathroom could have been cleaner. Baseboards were dirty. Sliding door to porch was difficult to open and close. Probably because of sand causing friction. Breakfast was good and served until 10 AM. Kill Devil Grill is right across the street and is really good. Location of hotel was good. I would definitely stay here again!

As a single mother traveling with my 3 children, this was the perfect place. 1 minute to the beach, pool or playground and 5 minutes to many food, shopping and sights. It was quiet, clean and the in room fridge/microwave was very convenient for a toddler who likes his milk warmed up for bed.

Overall, the place is dated but the rooms have all been updated. Our room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The breakfast was great. From previous reviews, it seems they have added to the breakfast. There were breakfast sandwiches, waffles, oats, muffins, bagels, boiled eggs, cereal, coffee, juices, milk. It was a great start to the day before heading to the beach.
We loved the gazebo area and ate several meals there. The access to the beach was perfect.
Parking is tight and one night after returning from dinner and mini golf, there were no spots in any of the lots. The staff ended up directing us to an area designated as no parking and allowed us to park assuring us that our vehicle would not be towed.
The only other issue would be the laundry room. There was only one working washer. It did make it difficult to try to wash clothes but we managed by often doing laundry late at night.
Overall, we would stay here again. It was family friendly. The staff were all so kind. The place was clean. The direct beach access was fantastic.
