We enjoyed a very clean room with an awesome shower. The balcony view of the beach was exactly what we hoped it would be. Direct access to the beach, a nice pool, with lounge chairs. A couple bbq grills and a covered area to retreat from the sun while taking in the ocean. All staff were friendly and accommodating. Most bang for the buck!

Didn't like the bathroom mirror in room 102. Too low. Bathroom faucet splashed water when facing it. The television was a problem getting it to turn on without un plugging it and putting the plug in. Don't know what cable provider they had but it was terrible. It wouldn't show the info of the channels.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The property is in a great location right on the beach and convenient to Garden Cith and Myrtle Beach attractions. The ground floor rooms are the best with a small kitchen and full size refrigerator and you can walk right out onto thepool beach area. The furnishings are basic with two low quality queen beds and a pull out sofa. My bigest and only real issue is the WiFi it is absolutely unusable, othe guest said the same. They need a serios equipment and link upgrade to be usable. The have consumer grade equipment and what appears to bea home user or very low capacity internet link. If ypu want to stay here do not count on having WIFI internet.

The property is old. Has been updated. But still needs more. Maid service never made both beds. Only one. Had to get coffee cups and toilet paper. No instructions on how to operate tv. Needs smart tvs added. Bathroom shower redone. But shower head and faucet just stuck in wall. Our beds were comfortable.
