Hotels near North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher – Kure Beach

"The AC leaked water on the balcony, which was littered with cigarette butts. The bathtub in our room wasn't clean, and a flooding issue forced some guests to be relocated; our floor smelled like raw sewage. Only an apology was offered. The bathrooms in the lobby also smelled like sewage. This hotel was not worth the price.2016-08-15"
