Wonderful

Cute and well thought motel room. Attention to detail was apparent. Special thanks to Olivia, she always reponded very promplty to our concerns. I would rate this excellent, except there was no ice machine, and the air conditioning unit is extremely loud. Although, it is maybe to be expected for a motel room to have loud a.c.
My wife and I needed a weekend beach getaway and so we booked a 2 night stay at the Tower Circle OBX motel because reviews said the location was walking distance to the beach.
We were not disappointed! The Tower Circle OBX was a wonderful place to stay! The location is a quick 5 minute walk from the beach, parking is right on the premises and the location is also walking distance from restaurants and shops. The room was perfect for two and it appeared it had been recently renovated, so the bathroom and room furnishing were very nice.
While the physical furnishings of the room were wonderful I must give a shout- out to the great service we experienced by the owners of the motel. My wife forgot her hairdryer and the motel did not have one, but we texted the hotel owner and within 10 minutes someone was at the door delivering a hairdryer to our room! This was exceptional service and it was so greatly appreciated!!!
We had a wonderful time and highly recommend the Tower Circle - nothing fancy, but practical, friendly and great location. Will definitely plan on returning.
My wife and I loved our time here! The room was very clean and is a short walk to the beach.

Other than the terrible mattress it was a great place. The mattress forced us to the middle of the bed. It was encased in a plastic cover and the sheet kept slipping off. Since the main purpose of a motel room is to sleep - this was a challenge. I think the owners have remodeled recently - hopefully they will replace the mattress soon.
We would stay here again. The bed was very comfy, everything you needed was there coffee, refrigerator, microwave, TV , easy to get in to room, code was sent and instructions given. Was perfect for the two of us for the night.
This classic but newly renovated beach hotel was a very good stay for 3 of us(couple with grand). Close walk to beach, extra large room, clean. Any messages to owners were quickly answered. We loved this area of OBX….not so busy as the Nags Head area. Bed linens are soooo comfy😀
Clean room. Easy check-in. It's not overly expensive.

Hotel had a good location for what we need it. Pool only 2 people can fit in, service by the pool was only really for the young people I waited about an hour for the bartender to come and acknowledge and my kids (not a family friendly hotel) ask for extra pillow never got it the first day that I went to get towels for the pool they didn’t have enough. Parking terrible and sooooo small one night had to park at handicap space since all spaces had been taken.
Customer service was good but all for the price not worth it.
Very nice and clean! Recently renovated. Quiet, safe area with a 2 min walk to the beach. Conveniently located near the Cape and well-positioned for exploring all of Hatteras Island. Will definitely stay here again!
Pictures did not represent the true condition of the property. Run down motel. Shows age. Got the impression that at least one of the occupants was a full time resident.
Tower Circle OBX was convenient for us, close to where family was staying, to places to eat and easy access to the beach. It was bare-bones, but that is not a bad thing. We found the bed comfortable although the pillows were a bit skimpy. The shower and towels were great although it took awhile for hot water to reach the sink. Our coffee pot was not clean but I was fine with washing it. The chairs at the table were terribly uncomfortable as there was absolutely no padding on them. I would suggest some room darkening curtains over the windows as the shades left a gap for folks to peer in and the safety lights that are left on at night lit the room up like daylight. All in all, I would recommend the hotel to anyone staying a few nights.
