The John Yancey Inn is an awesome place to stay if your going to the obx! Right on the beach, the staff is more than friendly, and the rooms and bathrooms are kept clean. Right across the road there are several restaurants and attractions for everyone. Great place to stay in the outer banks!

My friends and I spent one night at the John Yancey over memorial day weekend and it was great! I don't know where else you can get an oceanfront hotel for such an affordable price. The room was clean, well-maintained, and the staff was very helpful. I am definitely recommending this location to my friends.

The reviews I read were mixed on this place, but it was the only place I could find a room for under $200 on a Memorial Day weekend. The front desk clerk was very nice, and found a room for me that didn't have any stairs, which I can't do because my knees are bad. The room did however have... More

Well first let me say to get a great room upgrade go to the 4 season rooms or the sea building! They have remodeled those rooms and are really nice. The staff is great and go over and beyond to make your stay great. The beach there is great also. Will go back again.

We stayed on the second floor of the newly renovated Sea Building and have never been so close to the ocean! Bo, the guy who helped us when we called for reservations.... More

Just returned from a wonderful stay at the John Yancey hotel. The staff was very helpful, and the beach was beautiful. The property is in the midst of a big renovation to the ocean building, but I liked our 2nd floor room with great oceanviews. I enjoyed sunrise every monring on our balcony! I enjoy the independent inn atmosphere, and... More

I stayed at the John Yancey Oceanfront Inn with my family Jan 5th thru Jan 9th 2013. We were unable to obtain a room in the seaside building, because this building is currently under renovation. The staff went above and beyond upgrading us to the penthouse suite in their other oceanfront building. The suite was wonderful & the view of... More

The staff was very nice, but the room was falling apart. The walls were peeling and the bathtub had numerous chips in it. They had a power outage on Friday night. My kids were frightened, so we elected to leave and stay somewhere that had power. The staff member stated that they would take care of the charges. We only... More
