We had to stay at Best Western Plus Emerald Isle unexpectedly when our flight was changed by the airline. They (Harmony at the front desk was so kind!) accommodated an early check-in, the room was spacious and comfortable, and when we had to leave very early in the morning, they arranged for a taxi, and gave us a grab and go breakfast bag. We were very glad we chose this hotel.

Our checkin host was very polite, welcoming and attentive, and gave us very useful information about restaurants and the hotel services. The property is a bit dated and the AC could have been turned on before our check in to make the room more comfortable upon arrival but these were very minor things.

The staff went above and beyond to be helpful and friendly. I have not experienced this kind of service in a long time. Although the facilities were a little worn, I would absolutely stay here again because of the staff.

The breakast was served in a seperate building. So be prepared to get wet when it rains. Very inconvenient. For the price point you would think the general manager would have the brains to not force paying guests to walk out of the building just to have breakfast. Horrible set up.

I recently stayed at hotel and wanted to share my fantastic experience. Your hotel truly stood out for several reasons:
1. **Late Check-In:** We appreciated the flexibility of your late check-in policy, which made our arrival stress-free.
2. **Kids' Amenities:** My children were thrilled to receive toys upon arrival. This thoughtful gesture made them very happy and added a special touch to our stay.
3. **Breakfast Quality:** The breakfast was neat, clean, and delicious. We enjoyed the variety and quality of the offerings.
Thank you for providing such an outstanding experience. We look forward to visiting again in the future.
