I love the place and its prime location. I thought I had selected an ocean front; which the view was good, it wasn’t what I expected from the picture online. More of a side view room. That’s the only reason I didn’t give it a 5-star rating

Pro's: ocean view is pretty much ocean front. The downstairs restaurant is very nice. The hotel is beautiful Cons: I stayed in 1023, the room was dirty, the walls were dirty, there was old cup rings on the table from a soda, brown stuff under the toilet ( feces) ( I just cleaned it up I didn't feel like dealing with housekeeping) eyelash on the floor, all the tables were dusty and dirty, this is supposed to be a two bed suite, They use the dining room as a second bedroom and did not put a television in there. This place is very outdated and like I said the walls are dirty I had to sleep the floor It was still hair on the floor it was hair in the bed.. this hotel will go down as a no-go and I've always stayed at nice hotels in Myrtle Beach this one took the cake, the only one that was filthy. I sent the message they didn't reply, I clean my room but I was waiting on the review email so I can put all of this. Do not stay in 1023 until they properly clean it and put a television in the " so called " suite! I still can't believe both bathrooms were dirty!!

Staff was courteous. Room shows its age, minimal guest items eg no plastic or glass cups in the room, very old and stained coffeemaker, rust in bathroom, drapes hard to close due to rusty rods. Just an older resort not at its prime on a beautiful beach location. Don’t think we’ll be back.
