Although this hotel is reasonably priced in the immediate Aberdeen, Pinehurst, Southern Pines area, it is run down and in need of a good updating. Our room was dark, dirty looking, and had an unpleasant odor. The furniture is run down with just about every piece either chipped, warped, or wobbly. The mattresses hurt the shoulders, backs, and necks of my two daughters and wife. As a military family moving out of state, we stayed for a week as the daily dog fee of $20 was what we could afford, so we bought a candle to provide a better scent. To put it in perspective, the Hampton Inn wanted $189 per night as opposed to $110 for this BW. The shower had great pressure, but the caulking and tile is well worn and disgusting looking. The TV is tiny at 27 inches. The AC unit smells of mildew, maybe that's what caused the odor. There's no carpet, so you get a feel of staying at a crungy beach cottage. We've stayed at BWs before and this one leaves a lot to be desired. The breakfast area is very clean, but the same few items offered daily leaves you wanting to go elsewhere. The coffee is good, free all day long, and the pool is nice as is the pay as you go laundry facility. The only reason we opted to stay here was the lower cost, so you get what you pay for. The hotel's location is good, close to all shopping, but making a left turn out of the parking lot onto route 1 is dangerous in the morning and late afternoon. A plus is plenty of parking and a lot of space for trailers. less
