We enjoyed our stay. The condo was real nice, some mold in shower they just need to clean better. It was on the beach and lots of dining options close by and a few shops. The parking is not great, we had a truck and do not recommend bringing a full size car very hard to park it.

The first room they gave to us was really dirty (the German cockroach dying on the bedroom floor wasn't a great sign, and the second one only marginally better, and a number of the lights in the room didn't work, it seemed like they weren't expecting off-season guests!

This place is on the beach with access to a neighboring pool. There is no smart TV, so any streaming for a movie must be done on personal electronic devices. The grounds need some landscaping clean up and signage would be helpful to find the paths/access to the beach or pool. The breakfast was good and had several options.

It’s been a while since I have experienced such a poor guest service and cleanliness during vacation. Hotel advertises as only beach front hotel in Tybee island. Which is not true . Plus we got a room facing busiest road in whole island . Carpets had stains , dish washer was filled with dirty dishes . Bathroom sink was clogged up in first night , there were potato chips in fold out bed in living room when we opened it up . No pillows or blankets for the kids . We booked the room for 4. On the first day of stay room service came and left extra towels and roll of toilet tissue on the kitchen counter. That was it. Did not come back the rest of the 5 day stay . We had to wash our own towels , take trash out and clean bathroom. It was just far from what I have experienced during any stay in a while . Not to mention customer service, upon check in I stood there for 15 minutes without being acknowledged with desk clerk talking to coworkers, clearly seeing me there standing waiting. Upon check out, different clerk was sitting down on her phone eating breakfast at one of the breakfast tables and just told me to lay the key down on the counter.

The room was not as expected in the picture when booked. It was much much smaller and just looked different. The couch and chairs had several stains, the carpet in the bedroom felt and smelled like it hasn’t ever been cleaned, I found several long hairs on the floor that were not mine. I had previously spoke to someone about early check in, however when we arrived 30 minutes before check in time at 4pm, the room was not ready, which was very inconvenient considering I had groceries in the car and I was under the impression I would be able to check in early. The young at the front did not tell me cleaning procedures for the suite and I would have been charged had I not asked someone else before check out. There is a sign that says heated pool, but the pool was absolutely freezing. The breakfast is ok, but the breakfast area is so small and all the guests are on top of eachother. I think I’ll just get a vacation rental next time. This wasn’t worth the $ I paid for 3 days.
