I was able to get the room for a very good price so I was nervous that it would be kind of crappy and rundown but it was just the opposite. The room was very clean, spacious, and renovations were recently done which definitely gave it a newer, more modern feel. It was an ocean-facing room, but still quiet at night and really closeby to the SC pier/downtown SC, near lots of shops and restaurants which was very nice! Overall, very cute and cozy place and I liked that there were no overnight fee/incidentals (unless you happen to damage the room). The only thing I didn’t really like was that after 5/6 PM there is no one at the front desk office to help you out with anything.

The location of the hotel is very good. The hotel is clean and roomy. The hotel seems to be operated on minimum manpower. We never saw a person in the front desk, both check in and check out. We wanted to get some information, but with no person attending, we had to give up.

It looked like someone was laying on our bed before we entered and the door was ope. (Not properly locked). There were a lot of people outside of our room making noise too. Other than that it was comfortable and clean enough.

The check in process was horrible. The front office was closed before 3pm. The online system did not provide the necessary link to allow me to get access to the code for the room. I was on the phone with the reservation desk for over an hour before I was finally able to get into my room.
