2-Star Hotels in Isle of Palms

We stayed in an oceanfront room on the second floor. The room was very clean. The bed was super comfortable as were the pillows. The walk in shower and large vanity in the bathroom were definitely a plus. Also the shower head had great flow. The beach was a few steps away. The front desk personnel, Diane & Brandi, were both personable and hospitable. The continental breakfast was as expected with cereals, fruits and packaged choices along with coffee and juice. All vending machines we used and the ice machine worked fine. There are only a few parking spaces underneath the hotel but no worries, as they have an overflow parking lot right across the street. They describe the pool as a dipping pool and that was what it is which was fine for us. There are 2 very good restaurants across the street from the hotel that we tried. Acme Lowcountry Kitchen for dinner and Sea Biscuit Cafe for breakfast. Other places around the hotel as well featuring food and drink. Now for the not so good...the glass sliding door to the balcony was extremely hard to open. It did not slide. You had to jerk at the door to get it open enough to slip thru. You do share the balcony with the room next door. The curtains have nothing to help close them. We had to re-hook the curtains after pulling and pulling to close them. The concrete corridors need to be redone as they are peeling and cracked. The bar next door has live music Wednesday - Sunday. Live yes, good, no! The loudness would have been okay if the singing were good. If you are a hotel ”snob” then this is not your place to stay. If you are looking for a comfy place to rest your head in between your enjoying the beach, sights and cuisine then I highly recommend the Seaside Inn! Thank you to Diane & Brandi!

I was super pleased with our stay! We got a very reasonable price on our stay so I was a little nervous to see the place and I was so very happy we chose to stay here! The staff was great, the hotel was clean, and the location couldn’t have been better! The only complaint we had was the elevator took forever and was not air conditioned so we used the steps which the stairwells are also not air conditioned. They had maintenance people painting rooms and doors keeping the place looking nice so they definitely care about the look and they guests so hopefully they can help this in the near future… I looked at a crazy about of places before we booked and I read reviews on every single one so I hope to help someone else with reassurance that this is a great place to stay! 5 stars!
