Found in a good central location, easy to find, lots of parking options. A little play structure is located outside good for younger children. We were disappointed with the cleanliness of our room. Easy check in and easy check out. Staff were friendly. Sufficient for a one night stay.

The hosts were very friendly. The area is very close to Canatara beach and waterfront area next to the US border. It is also close to a mall for shopping. The room was big enough. Only issue was the window air conditioner which was a bit loud and air was not cool enough.

Expired fire extinguisher!!!
The in-room fire extinguisher was last serviced in 2019!!! 5 years ago!!! They are required by law to service them yearly. The kitchen suite floor was not washed. Something was spilled on it and it was sticky when walked on. No extra blankets or pillows. I think they thought we would steal them so they reluctantly gave us a few extras.

I let hotel management know that our refrigerator was not working and she had it replaced within a couple of hours. The bathroom was recently remodeled, so that was especially nice. We are a family of 5 so having three queens in the room was great.

At our overnight stay within the Gables Inn we enjoyed our overall stay. The rooms were newly updated (we had 2) the beds were comfortable and there was lots of room for activites indoors. The only downfall with the Gables inn is that it’s broadcasted their is a pool for swimming and to our surprise when we arrived it looked like the pool had been closed for many years and instead built a small jungle gym next to it meaning it should have been removed from the ad. The lady working the front desk was friendly and answered any questions we had.

Perfectly fine for just me for a night. Yeah, it’s not a Hilton, but NO bugs, mattress fine. Door deadbolt didn’t work, and there’s no other interior chain, but I’m a guy, so I was fine with just the door handle lock. May be more nervous if I were female (but then I’d just ask to change rooms - I’m sure plenty of others have a working deadbolt). Would stay again.

We had no heat! They had a problem with people having the heat on and the air conditioning. So they shut off the heat and had a space heater in there instead. But it was in the closet not plugged in and running. Since we didnt get there till 1030pm we didn't know, so we had no heat till we talked to someone in the morning. Then we plugged the space heater in the bathroom and it took 1.5 hours to warm up just the bathroom enough to have a shower. In the bedroom we kept our coats on to watch tv. The staff was nice and tried to accommodate but that was a BIG inconvenience since it was only 3 degree outside. The place was clean and had the fridge and microwave but no coffee
