“Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 June 2012 NEW

My husband and I stayed at the Seaside over Memorial Day weekend. We will never stay here again. It was a complete dump. The balcony...what balcony? Its a crappy little plastic chair outside your room and people walk by constantly. Yeah no privacy. There was a constant wet spot on our hotel room floor which was disgusting. Also, the refrigerator had obviously not been cleaned. There were smudges all inside of it. I was completely grossed out the whole time we were staying at this dive. I have no idea what the reviewer below me "estes" is talking about. The bathrooms were certainly not something you would see out of a magazine. There was hair on the bathroom floor and on the lampshades. I would say the only upside to this awful place was they had a very comfortable bed. That is it. We brought our own comforter thank god because I know not to use hotel room comforters. There were stains all over it. UGH just thinking about this place makes me want to vomit.

Room Tip: Do not choose any room...go to a different hotel.

“Service = Above and Beyond!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2012 NEW

Mr. Hitchcock,
I take this opportunity to recognize one of your outstanding employees: Shauna! Yesterday I phoned the hotel to see about the possibility of having champagne delivered to a guest upon her arrival. Shauna was a pure professional handling my request. Her ability to say: "Yes" to my request was both refreshing and uncommon in today's service industry. Thank you for allowing your staff the ability to make a decision without the hassle of "jumping through hoops!" Shauna went well above and beyond my expectations and made my first impression of Seaside Inn a lasting one. My sincere thanks for making my mother's stay extra special. Katherine Boyet, Atlanta, GA

“Awesome location, small rooms, missing the little things you would expect.”

Cramped room and "balcony" which is really a chair outside of the door to your room on a shared balcony/path surrounding the hotel. We both got bruised up from hitting the bed when trying to come in and out of the room. Could have been better kept. Coffe maker was dirty with old coffee in it and no new packets. Remote didn't work. Dusty/dirty wardrobe. Beds were comfortable and the lounge porch was nice. Beach walks every morning make it nice.

“Absolutely a very pleasurable experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 May 2012

We had never been to Isle of Palms, or the Seaside Inn before. But we will definitely be back! The hotel was gorgeous, and the rooms were delicately decorative in island fashion. The bathroom was definitely something u would see in a magazine! The entire staff was accommodating and attentive to all our needs. The assistant general manager, Ms. Shauna Decker was the nicest most professional of them all. It was our anniversary and she took time out of her busy schedule to make us feel at home. Overall, this is the place u wanna be if You're staying in Isle of Palms!

“Had a great stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2012

My wife and I stayed for 4 nights in mid-April and had a great time. The location is terrific...on the beach and easy walking distance to some restaurants / bars. The room was a tad on the small side we were generally out and about most of the days so this wasn't an issue. The only negative is the parking...there are a limited number of spots right below the hotel....if those are full you have to park off premises. Other than that all was well. Would definitely stay there again.
