Courtyard Carolina Beach Oceanfront

8/10 Good

"I've stayed at the Courtyard hotel multiple times because I love that all the rooms are oceanfront. The hotel was at full capacity, only one elevator was working, and we waited a long time for it; this time, they didn't have enough staff to clean the rooms."
