    I love the house and the location. It was very clean, and the host was kind and helpful. The game room was a nice addition. My son and I enjoyed playing mini pool. The backyard was surprisingly huge and fenced in, so I trusted my son to play back there. It's pet friendly as long as you pay a cleaning fee for the animal hair, but at Wrightsville Beach, we saw a sign saying no dogs allowed on the beach. Just keep that in mind. We had a great time there, and I would definitely book it again.

    Location was good, near all the places I needed to go. The breakfast was good; I didn't get to try the waffles because someone was apparently making a stack and there was a line, which I didn't have time for, but the eggs and sausage were good. I was very glad to find a nice hotel that was pet friendly and near the campus. The also had a nice dog-walking area.
