Booked two rooms here for me, my wife and a friend for a trip to the Darlington area. Stayed overnight here in Hartsville, as it seemed like one of the nicer hotels in the outer Darlington area, without going out of our way into Florence (were traveling from the north).
The check in process was quick and friendly. The front desk was helpful in recommending some restaurants in town. The rooms here were large and clean. The beds were big and soft (a bit too soft for my taste, but that's just me). I was on the 2nd floor of the hotel, in a back room, which unfortunately turned out to be within earshot of the pool. There were teenagers partying around the pool well into the night (probably wouldn't have bothered me so much except I had a bit of a cold and went to bed early). Not sure what event was going on that weekend at the hotel, but it seemed to be a lot of partiers. Saw quite a few people lugging in cases of beer, and there were beercans in the 1st floor public bathroom.
My wife likes to have a fridge and microwave in the room. Our room did not have either, but my friend (who I booked the exact same room type for) did have one on a rolling cart. Maybe our was just rolled out for some reason. So, if you want a fridge and microwave, you might want to ask when you book.
Breakfast didn't look too appetizing and was crowded. We opted to go find something in town. Found a little local place called Carolina Lunch. It served a GREAT breakfast (if their business was on Tripadvisor, I'd review it, too).
