“Average hotel...Good location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2010

Checked in on the way down to Myrtle Beach. Good location right off of the interstate. Hotel is very nice from the outside. Pool was good, kids liked it. The corridors and room smelt musty, not sure they run the ac in the corridors which would help remove that smell. Room was nice, bedding was fine, as well as the pillows. Bathroom toilet wasn't bolted down on side so if you leaned, it tipped. Bathroom could use an update since the wallpaper was peeling and the caulking was horrible. Breakfast was fine, with a lot of options.

“Medicore”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 August 2010

person found this review helpful

The location was great, right off 95 with tons of nearby resturants. We enjoyed the mcrowave and fridge and things seemed pretty clean. However, in both beds there were stray hairs that where not ours. I was hoping they were from the maids but I was kind of grossed out and thought maybe they didn't change the sheets. Other downfalls were our remote control didn't work and we had no internet connection even though the hotel offers free wi-fi. The beds felt comfortable but we all had a terrible nights sleep for whatever reason and woke often and couldn't fall back to sleep. We ended up leaving the hotel at 5:30 b/c we were all awake even though we planned to leave at about 8 so we didn't get enough sleep and missed out on the breakfast, especially the cinnamon rolls! Overall hotel was OK, and I ended up staying for free with my Priority Club points so that made it worthwhile. I would consider staying again if it was free or cheap but there seem to be a lot of hotels in the area so if there were other hotels avail at a similar price I would try those.

“Much better than last year!”

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay this time. Last, year, we were not so fortunate. However, I do have one request: Please increase your choice of fruit to eat for breakfast. You only had bananas. Do consider apples, oranges, cantaloupes, water melon, and grapes..or even a fruit salad. That would be so awesome!

“Average Hotel, Great Staff!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 November 2009

I was very impressed with the staff at this hotel. Forgive me for forgetting your name, but to the evening manager who was working the evening of 11/09 - thank you so much for all of your help! I had a ton of boxes delivered to the hotel for a week of field sampling and you were nice enough to have it set up in my room so I wouldn't have to drag everything up myself. It was nice to be greeted by a friendly face after a long day of traveling!

The hotel was pretty average, not as bad as others have described it. There were a few downsides to the room (the toilet was a little stained, a few hairs here and there, the alarm clock didn't work, internet connection wasn't the best) but it was good enough for a night's sleep. Checkout in the morning was also a bit slow - they couldn't print my reciept for some reason but when I called later and asked that it be faxed to my office they sent it to me almost immediately.

“Nasty and Roach infested!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2009

My husband, my 5 year old son and I stayed at this hotel on the way o back from Disney. We checked in about 9:30p. We figured the Holiday Inn should be a great place, well, we were wrong! The room we got was on the 1st floor it was disgusting! The shower had pubic hairs in it, behind the back of the toliet their was a red fluid that looked like it had been there for a while. The room smelled like trash! There was mold in the closet and the sink wasn't clean. There were white stains on the top of the green comforters. I was going to just suck all this up and let it go afterall we were tired......but that's when I saw roaches crawling on the bed that my Husband was laying in. That was it for me! I called the front desk to let them know..the clerk acted like she was so surprised that the hotel had roaches, she told me to come and get another room. I really wanted to leave but like I said we were tired....we got the second room...this room was a bit clener however, there were still white stains on the green comforter, the air conditioner wasn't working well, there were stains on the leather chair, and when I turned on the light in the bathroom there was a mix of roaches and ants that scattered! I was distgusted! We took all of our bags to the car, as we didn't want to risk bringing any if those roaches coming home with us. I was so freaked out that I couldn't even sleep, I woke my husband and my son up at 5am so that we can leave! The only good thing about this whole bad experince was that the clerk reversed the charge on my credit card and we didn't have to pay. I was surprised that the fee was $109 for one night. That was a joke! Who's suppossed to pay $109 to stay in a filthy roach motel.......ill! I've never felt so disgusted...........I would never stay here again!
