Fully realizing that being on the beach comes at a premium, at $400 a night you would think that some great service and amenities would help us be forgiving of the towel bar falling out of the wall, no amenities except water and a couple bins of cereal, parking still charged. At that rate you would think they could at least update the facility. Don’t recommend.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Loved the beach front access, however all of the walking surfaces outside from the rooms were quite slippery and in need of repair. The parking garage was difficult to use and not gated. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. There were plenty of clean towels available and the bedding was clean. But the bathroom needs to be updated and made to be safe. Shower leaked all over the bathroom floor and there were no non-skid strips or rails for a slippery tile shower. Toilet seat and sink were loose. Staff were nice and helpful.

Great location with on-site parking and walking distance from the ocean, shopping, and great restaurants. Unfortunately, the property seems to need a good bit of maintenance.

I liked that there was unlimited free water bottles and extra towels were very easy to access. The pancakes at breakfast were delicious. Don’t bother with ‘partial ocean view’. Try for something on the 1st floor for best access to the ocean.

The room I stayed in was horrible. Room 310. I realize the hotel is on the beach and have stayed at other at other such accommodations elsewhere but the overwhelming smell of stagnant sea salt was horrible. The floors did not feel clean so we wore flip flops the whole time in the room. The bathroom layout is a joke. The tiles shower looked disgusting so again we wore flip flops. The curtain was not long enough so our bathroom floor was flooded every day. The shower does not have a place to put your shampoos and soaps so that was part of the flood issue. Have to open the current to grab soap, shampoo, conditioner. Finally the toilet paper holder fell off the wall during our stay. The good I have to give is this place is in a great location for a quiet get away. If the owners want help making this place all it can be please reach out.

Never go back

The air conditioner did not eliminate any humidity in the room so when we were getting ready for bed we noticed the bedding was damp and cold. We could not sleep under the covers and the front office was closed up for the night. Next day had new bedding replaced and by bedtime the sheets were damp and cold again. Room had a funky musky odor. Room looked like the last time it was renovated 20 years ago.

Location was great! Right on the ocean. 20 minutes from Charleston. Price was reasonable. Staff were very good- although, we had little interaction with them. They responded quickly to our one request. Thursday night was quiet, but Friday night was loud outside in the street due to a show at a nearby restaurant. Facility was older and in need of repair in some spots, but our room was clean and in working order. Would definitely stay there again.
