Run down. DIRTY!!!! Extremely loud band playing music until 11 pm. No ability find any peace and relaxation. Pictures of the resort online grossly misrepresented the state of the facilities and cleanliness ... borderline fraud. Will be following up with expedia for a refund.

Need updates really bad, old Emerson tvs, old tables, drop cords behind furniture, service not professional, rooms not very clean, Swimming pool, lazy river and elevators way to small for the size hotel it is. I took pics but it won't let me submit. If it was updated we'd probably give it another chance

My daughters and I immediately requested a change of room bc our initial room was uninhabitable; very dirty and smelly. The front desk staff member understood and moved us immediately. That room was better but still lacked freshness. We went out and purchased Lysol spray and wipes. Additionally, there was loud banging and police activity at about 4 am that same morning. We felt unsafe and I called Expedia to explained everything and they agreed that I should check out and find another accommodation. Anyone staying here should be cautious. The website info and actual accommodations are not the same.

Buyer beware

Hotels.com has a poor rating system. Our stay was in filthy conditions. And as a consumer, we rely on reviews at a 7.5 rating. This stay was not truthful.

We had a great stay. The hotel was very clean and the amenities were nice. The beach was just a few short steps from the pool. It wasn’t dreadful walking and packing all the beach supplies back. I will definitely stay here again if I return to Myrtle Beach.

Rooms need a deep cleaning. Mold on lamp shades, air conditioning, walls. This was one of the worst places I have ever stayed at. Mold does not just show up overnight. We were told to keep ac at 70 due to moisture. Well I have stayed in many ocean front places and I have never seen such filth. Don’t waste your money on this place !!!!!😫😤

The staff and location were amazing. Ocean Annies bar is a blast. The room was old, and while currently a nonsmoking room, the smell of stale cigarettes was very strong. It wasn’t the cleanest room either. There was dust bunnies caught in the texture on the walls and ceiling as well as the ceiling fan. The elevators were also consistently down.

Do not book

We immediately asked for a refund after walking the property and seeing the room. The furniture was falling apart, the property had a bad smell and the pictures advertised looked nothing like what it is like in person. Would not even put our bags down when we got to the room.

The room needed a lot of maintenance. Paint job was terrible. The nightstand and chest of drawers were dirty and sticky. The sink didn’t look like it had even been wiped before our stay. Housekeeping never came (4 night stay). I called for towels one morning, and upon returning from the beach 7 hours later, no towels. I went to get some from reception, they didn’t have washcloths but said they’d send some right up. 4 hours later we called AGAIN, and finally 1.5 hours later someone brought washcloths. Parking building across the street was super tight and creepy.
