I love Bar-Mel! It has been around for many years, so don't expect fancy, but the beds are comfortable and the rooms are clean. The staff is awesome. A young man named Mo helped me with the tv remote when I couldn't find the volume button. I must have had a senior moment! He was so kind and even gave me a big hug!

The Bel-Mar is a quaint throwback to a different time with a genuinely caring owner. Off the beaten path and nestled near the Sumter National Forest it's a peaceful place to stay. It's well cared for inn with spacious rooms that's a must stay if you're in the area.

New owner who is very friendly and making repairs to a property that was run down. Spacious room, bed was comfortable and the room very clean. Large selection of tv channels. Was better than I expected. Convenient and a reasonably priced if playing the savannah lakes golf courses.

The rooms are very spacious. Is the first time I’ve ever seen a hotel where the head of the bed adjust so you could sit up and read a book in bed without needing too many pillows. The staff of the property was extremely professional and polite and went out of the way to help you, this is the best spot to stay at go to Graves Mountain rock swap and dig Since it’s only 20 minutes away from the site, which is straight down the same road the hotels on.

You have to remember this is a mom and pop place and so for the price point this was a good place. We were there for the bluegrass festival and our other options were more expensive or much farther away. As such the place is in need of an update and did provide the necessities. It met our needs. McCormick is just a few miles down the road and we can recommend the Little Italy restaurant and the Huddle House.

This property was a horrendous place. Why would Expedia even allow this property on their system. I have been using this service for several years and I’m completely shocked they would even consider listing this place. When we arrived to the property with the gravel parking lot which is no big deal but there were people cooking on a fire on the ground. Not great but I understand trying to be economical. I stopped at the office and when I went inside the office was a complete wreck no one was there and the counter was covered in old receipts and other papers piled up and it was just badly cluttered. A young man came to the door and ask if I had a reservation. I said yrs he ask me to step outside and wait while he called is boss on a cell phone that the screen was so cracked he couldn’t see who he was dialing. I had a great deal of trouble understanding when talked. Because I have a very high level of sensitivity to tobacco smoke I had trouble standing close enough to him to carry on a conversation. After talking with Alice we decided to go somewhere else. The property did not look or feel safe. I had hoped to get a refund but I’m sure I will not.

Dirty, broken down and worn out everything. The AC clattered a death rattle and I barely slept - woke at 3:30 to the noise. Needs basic maintenance and a renovation. No top sheet, had to go back and ask manager for it. He launched into an explanation.
