Ended up not being able to check in due to front desk not caring about her job and waited in line for two hours. They also did not refund my reservation even though I'm pregnant and unable to stand in line for 3 hours waiting for someone who was going so ungodly slow that I was starving after my road trip to get to Myrtle Beach. Deposits are $100 cash only, though this didn't bother me because it is stated in the description of the hotel and was not a surprise upon arrival. However, many other guests were upset about this and also were demanding a refund for their reservations.

I traveled with kids ages 5 to 15. At furst I only booked 1 night because of the hundred bad reviews and its what I could afford that night. But after checking in we def wanted to stay a second night there. The staff was wonderful. Yes the 1 cleaning lady spoke little English and didnt understand us asking for towels for the 2nd stay but the front desk got us 2 extra sets of towels so no issues. There were no bugs in our room at all not even a fly. The pool was clean. Yes parking is crazy because its shared with another hotel but across the street is a whole parking lot for the hitel so again no issues and no complaints. We loved it and will def stay there again for future visits. Thank you for making our 2 day trip the best weve had out there....

Stay away

Horrible front desk service, has a cash only room deposit, only one room key which was a physical key. Was unfamiliar with the area and did not expect much with the price . However not only was the hotel and staff horrible most of the other guests were horrible. I would not stay here or anywhere near the area

I didn't stay here because of unexpected fee's. 190 for 2tonight's dog fee's. When I was told that I told them to cancel my room! we had to get another hotel because of our dog. and been trying to get a refund 🙄 😒...and when I was in the office the music at the pool was so loud!! and the place can use some attention!! It is not a Resort. It looked like a Regular hotel to me.
