“Excellent Off-Season Value!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 February 2012
2
people found this review helpful

I stayed at the property across the street from the beach and paid $52 for a room with two queen beds, which I thought was an excellent value. Just about the whole hotel has been attractively redone. Although it seems to be an older property, the exterior of the whole property has been painted a sunny yellow and each room has two white rocking chairs outside the front door.

We stayed on the first floor, and were able to park right outside our front door. This location also gave us convenient access to the outdoor pool and the included continental breakfast at reception. The outdoor pool and lazy river is not heated (even the spa is cold) but there is an indoor pool at the beachfront property across the street that you can use. The reception/breakfast area is also being redone. They give you "tickets" for breakfast to prevent random people from just walking in. At breakfast there are: hot waffles, biscuits, cereal, egg patties, muffins, orange juice/coffee/tea, etc. You also have to provide a $5 cash room key deposit that is returned to you upon checkout.

I was very impressed with our room: Brand new carpeting and furniture; Large comfortable beds; A flat screen tv with plenty of stations AND a remote that had been sanitized (see picture). There are two doors to the room: one door opens onto the patio and the other door is accessible from the rear of the hotel. The bathroom is very well done with a new wood vanity and granite countertop.

The front desk staff were very nice and called us when we left behind items in the room after we had checked out. I would definitely stay here again. It was very clean and comfortable and an incredible value!

Thank you for providing future guests with such a helpful and detailed review! I appreciate your thoroughness and honesty in recommending us to others. In order to keep the property well-maintained, I am constantly making updates and undergoing renovations. I am, therefore, glad to see that you noticed and appreciated the work I have done on both the exterior and interior of the buildings. The high- quality furnishings, flat-screen TVs, and rocking chairs are all ways that I have sought to provide guests with the best experience possible. Next time you return, you can also enjoy the expansion of the lobby, as well as the addition of the business and fitness centers. Thank you again for your review... hopefully, we'll see you again soon!

“Beautiful views”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 February 2012

person found this review helpful

This hotel is literally right on the beach, and it was amazing to wake up to ocean views each morning! It's quite expensive normally but luckily we booked during a sale. My children loved it and the wife did too. The rooms were spacious and had everything we needed, so we would definitely stay again. Recommended.

“Beautiful beach views”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012

people found this review helpful

Wake up in the morning watching the sun rise. This was a nice hotel (make sure you differentiate between the beachfront property and the one across the street). When I first walked in the hallway seemed a bit old but the room itself was quite spacious with a beautiful view. The staff (although they do ask for a $5 room key deposit - I think they want to know when you check out and it is a way of getting you to come in and let them know). Bathroom was good - nice water pressure. Bed was comfortable. With an off season rate, the price was great for the location. The breakfast was average.

“Best stay on a beach... at off-season prices!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

people found this review helpful

Stayed in a 2-room suite on the beach with the ocean view out of my patio and an indoor heated pool across the hall. Full-size kitchen and 2 wide-screen flat T.V.s. Staff was great and proved it time and time again. Stayed for a full week and I needed to wash clothes before a day trip started. The on-site washer-dryers were closed untill 8:00 A.M. The night auditor came across the street from his office and opened up the laundry room at 5:oo A.M.! He was still smiling when he left. The owner happened to be at the front desk when I asked for directions to a city nearby. He offered me a full-size map for free which he annotated with a Hy-liter. They were very gracious for my entire stay. Price? $69.00/night! Staff cleaned room every day. It was kept clean. When I left, the staff printed my boarding passes and told the owner that I was leaveing. He came up front and shook my hand and wanted to know if I had any difficulties during my stay. He really wanted to know...

Of course, I wanted to know! I genuinely care that each guest has an exemplary experience; the reason my property is known for excellent customer service is because my staff and I share the desire to ensure that vacationers have a great time. We do everything we can- whether it is giving directions or printing your boarding passes- to make that happen. Thank you so much for your positive review; I appreciate that you are spreading the word about our property! See you next time!

“I'm going back this weekend!”

I spent the night here two weeks ago as I came to Myrtle Beach for an interview and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. The place was spotless and the people were super nice. Also, it had the best continental breakfast of any place I've ever been! I mean who has gravy and biscuits, sausage and eggs on a continental breakfast? These folks do! As my business in Myrtle Beach continues this weekend I will be staying there again!
