Construction noise all around. Not their fault. Nice place. Difficult to park but paid a lot for privilege.

The hotel is right on the beach for those who want to be able to walk out the door and stroll on the sand. The room was very nice and spacious. My only criticism is that it was a bit noisy. Also, it would be nice to at least have a Keurig and UHT milk instead of the truly awful coffee and powdered “creamer” that was offered. For the cost of the room, it doesn’t seem like a lot to ask!
I called prior to my arrival and spoke to Dana the General Manager and he helped me out with all my questions and my special request. I will only come back to this hotel when I come to SC.
The property was in a perfect location, close to the boardwalk and the wharf. The room and everything was very clean with comfortable beds. I don't think there should be a charge for parking since its kind of a disaster. I would definitely stay there again!!

Brand new hotel but yet lamp didn’t work at night stand and the shower head was corroded with hard water. Also house keeping who didn’t speak any English walked in our room twice unannounced not even a knock while we were changing clothes. The dryer apparently was broken so our towels were wet.
Stayed here for my 40th birthday with my boyfriend. You can't go wrong because it's literally right across from the Ocean which is amazing and the Boardwalk is right there with so much to do and so many restaurants in walking distance. Theres also a Bowling alley and Karaoke bar in walking distance even the walk downtown isn't too bad we did it two nights in a row. You can people watch from the 4th floor of the hotel and enjoy a drink up there. The room was small but clean. Wish we would have had a queen bed instead of 2 doubles but we still enjoyed and where comfortable. The staff was wonderful ,friendly and very helpful. We had a great trip and would stay here again.
Wonderful staff, check-in was smooth and very welcoming. They took the time to explain the lay of the hotel. Clean room, good beds and shower. We stayed for two nights (Friday-Sunday) and loved the balcony facing the beach and arcade!
The staff was top notch. Exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Our rooms were clean, atmosphere was beautiful. We happened to be going to the clam chowder cook off which was within 1 minute. I definitely would be back and highly recommend this hotel
