    No lighting in room -- very dark. Bathroom smelled awful from the moment we checked in and did not improve. Very unsafe trying to get to our room "oceanside" after dark. Hotel does not respond to Booking.com messages or questions from the guests.

    Hotel does not respond to ANY booking.com messages -- We had asked questions about the pet policy and after no answer (3 messages over 2 weeks time), we tried to cancel the reservation. No response to that request either! We sent a total of 5 messages over 3 weeks, and Booking.com agents sent two messages to cancel. NOBODY RESPONDED TO THE BOOKING AGENTS AFTER ONE WEEK!!! The hotel finally responded to us THE DAY AFTER WE CHECKED OUT. Bathroom smelled like rotten eggs from the moment we checked in, we had to keep the door closed the entire stay. No actual lighting in room -- only one dim nightstand lamp btwn the beds -- that's it -- no other light source for the entire space. It was too dark to read, re-pack, or even see the carpet clearly. Property was fine, but has ZERO lighting to get to your room safely if you pay extra for "OceanView". We really liked The Beach House restaurant nextdoor -- they were great with our two little dogs and the food was better than expected. Excellent fish and chips and Low Country Boil. Breakfast was lovely -- small buffet, but everything my husband liked was on it.

    The rooms aren’t cleaned very well. There are many spider webs in the corners with little spiders. The vent covers & window sills are dirty and a lot of the walls need to be washed or painted. The pool is out of commission now too.

    Beautiful location with an oceanfront balcony. Amazing views & calming environment. Beds were comfortable, pillows were great, towels nice & soft. You don’t need to get in your car to enjoy the outdoors. Lots of good seating options. Great size room with many extras & great value for the price.

    We requested and received a non-smoking room which was important to us since cigarette smoke triggers migraines for me. The room was great but we could not go out on our balcony due to the people under us smoking on their balcony. It would be nice if they had an entire section reserved for non-smokers.

    The room was very clean and comfortable. Great location and a beautiful view of the beach.

    Walkways were not lighted. The pool was disgusting and gross. Green and black algae everywhere. Could not see bottom of the pool. No complimentary water or coffee. Water was $3.00 and coffee was $4.00. What was advertised was not true.

    Room was very comfortable and clean. Very large and a great view of the ocean.

    I'm not 100% convinced that house keeping changed the sheets. Fresh looking Blood spot on one of the pillows and the sheets had a fresh stain as well....

    Staff at restaurant could have been more friendly and could have had more wait staff. And I wish we had a better view of the beach for what we paid for the room.

    The fact that breakfast was included with our stay. And the peacefulness.
