Location
The best thing about this place is the location. It has direct access to Folly Beach. The property itself could use some upgrades. The second elevator being broken makes for a long wait during busy times. Overall it's decent.

Great location, needs renovation
Pros: great location, friendly staff, coffee shop downstairs. Cons: hotel is dated, toilet took 5 minutes to fill up. Lobby deodorizer was overwhelming. Didn’t appreciate the extra tax and daily resort fee specially in the winter when it’s too cold to be in the outdoor pool. Only one elevator was working. No outlet by bedside table. Had to go out and buy a 5 ft extension cord.

Hotel is clean but showing signs of aging - some corrosion of door hinges, bathroom door sticks, torn shower curtain, loose sink faucet handle, one of two elevators not working. Time for renovations? However, the staff is super friendly and very helpful.

Anniversary Stay
Our stay was great, staff was super friendly and accommodating. The air freshener in the lobby area was very pungent and overpowering. TV could have had a bit more selection but other than those 2 items our stay was great and will stay again in the future.

Quick trip for daughters return to CofC
Quick overnight stay to bring my daughter back to CofC. Staff was amazing for a late check in, hotel was super clean and smelled amazing upon entry. My mom drinks tea at night and needed to heat up water and staff quickly accommodated by bringing up a microwave! So nice and friendly. Will definitely return.
