Walls are thin and we could hear what was happening in the adjacent room. The guests in the room adjoining were fighting and we were concerned that one person was being assaulted. We reported the event to the front desk but no action was taken. We checked out and moved to another hotel.

The guy that worked at the reception was in a horrible mood. Was not friendly and welcoming at all. It felt like we were a problem for him. The room was very neat, we loved that.

The parking was confusing A little disappointed in that The elevator was shady Older hotel you could tell a little water damage I saw a little hole to the outside by the bottom of the door which is why people in other reviews may have had bugs I don’t think it was bad though You can’t beat the beach being right there and the options for food in the area I liked it was walkable The beds weren’t bad decently comfortable The hotel was clean but worn Would probably stay again if we could have a beach room or one with windows Didn’t like our room by the elevator with a window to see literally everyone who would have used the elevator

Nice room and Price
Great accessible beach location, but most rooms did not appear to have a beach view. Nice size room, with several restaurants within easy walking distance. The hotel is a reasonable driving time into Charleston. The only negative was other guest were loud, slamming doors and appearing to stomp instead of walk through the central hallway.
