Check-in and out was quick and painless, facilities were warm and inviting, the beds felt great, some stiffness but still soft enough to sink into a little bit. The lodge has some historic feel to it and is pretty much smack dab in the middle of everything, walkable distance to pretty much everything in the town. If I had to pick a gripe it would be parking but everyone knows parking is at a premium on an island, and there is enough available.

Terrible service, dirty.
The room they gave us was never cleaned from previous people. The second room the wave us was occupied. The final room was one of the cheapest rooms available. In the morning i tried to get a price adjustment for the difference in price and they said there was nothing they could do. Said we had to deal with hotels.com.

Ok- a lot of stuff didn’t work including the refrigerator and we had to throw away all our food . A bit far from the city and have to walk on the road because there is no side walks

Weekend Getaway
Wife and I spent the weekend for our 31st Anniversary. Off season and quiet but that’s the way I planned it. Staff was friendly, courteous and efficient. Will be back this summer during the tourist season when the island will be hopping. Recommend Blackbeards Lodge to any and all
