The Inn at Southport

The room was comfortable and clean. The motel is classic 60/70's- drive up to the room . The owners have maintained the premises and tried to keep the nostalgia from the era.

Stayed in the suite. Very roomy and well appointed. Convenient location. They did a good job of modernizing an old motel.

I was in Room #1. The bedroom was spacious, well-lit, clean, simply and tastefully decorated. TV worked well. The climate control was not very clear but the room was comfortable enough. I had a good sleep. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS ROOM OR THIS MOTEL FOR PEOPLE WITH MOBILITY ISSUES OR RELATED DISABILITIES. There is no front desk and I never saw any staff during my stay (@29 hours overnight). Communication is, apparently, entirely by text. if you don't have a smart phone you're out of luck. I phoned and Emailed from home a few days ahead of time and did get helpful responses, plus a handwritten welcome message when I arrived. On arrival I fortunately found a vacant parallel parking space in front of my room. However, I dared not move my car from the space because it's not reserved for my room, and parking seems to be at a premium. I saw no handicapped spaces indicated anywhere on the premises. In front of my room, there is a roughly 9-10" step up from the parking pavement to the walk in front of the room, and I had to reposition my car close enough that I could boost myself up to the walk. I saw no other steps, no ramp, no handrails anywhere. The bathroom is clean but tiny. (Photo misleads.) The toilet is in a recess about 24" wide. I could use it standing, but I was afraid to sit on it because there were no handgrips or other assistance for standing. Shower @ 24x30" -- I passed on using it. Not friendly for disabled people. My mistake. Won't repeat.
