Bathrooms are in desperate need of updating and repair with holes in the walls and shower water goes all over the bathroom. The staff was very nice and bedroom was clean. Location in the beach is the best part

First, I did not receive a single reminder of this reservation, nor a confirmation email. Second, I wasn’t able to make it to Charleston for medical reasons yet was charged the full rate of missing the stay. Poor communication , inability for any type of flexibility and unfriendly customer support - rating of 1 out of 10, wish I could rate a 0.

We were disappointed in the hotel considering the price we paid. The room had rust stains in some areas and could have been dusted better. The addition parking lot across the road did have a sign but there were car parking in front of the sign both days.

"Ocean view" was not as we expected. Literally have to lean out the door to see the ocean. Property in good shape but definitely in need of some maintenance/TLC. Room itself and bathroom was great. BIGGEST complaint is I asked for a late checkout the day prior to departure. Night clerk said we could have a 1pm checkout. The next day the office called asking why we were still there. I explained that we had requested to late check out the night before. The front desk clerk said he did not have info that we had a late checkout, then accused us of making it up. I understand sometimes things aren't communicated between shifts, but I was very offended that he accused us of telling a lie.

There was a band at night right outside our room that played from 6 to 9. and packed up their gear until 11:30. We checked out early even though we had paid for additional day

Let's start with the pro's - walk out of your room, down a few steps and you're on the beach! Our room was clean and odor-free, as were the towels and bedding. The bathroom was simple but functional. A small coffee station was equipped with a Keurig coffee machine, a small microwave and a mini-fridge. Replacement coffee pods, waters and other necessities were freely available from the lobby. Off-street parking was available under the building, with the cost added to the bill at check-in. Don't underestimate this - the city parking ambassadors (as they are called) are very active in the streets outside! A complementary continental style breakfast is served daily in the lobby, which we enjoyed on the tables overlooking the beach. On the con's - be aware that only six of the rooms have full sea views and semi-private balconies, and these rooms have a premium price tag. All the other rooms have no sea view, or 'partial' sea views. We found our room to be a bit sparse - there was nowhere to sit apart from the bed (but then, you're there to sit on the beach, not in your room...). A simple piece of artwork on the wall would have given the room some character. Tiled floors seemed a bit austere and cold at first, but after we had dropped sandy clothes on the floor, we realized that carpets or mats would have been a big mistake! All in all, five minutes on the beach and a dip in the sea water, and one tends to overlook the minor imperfections of the stay!
