Not worth what we paid
We were not that impressed with our stay at Seaside Inn. Our room was rather small and not well maintained. There was rust around the bathroom door frame, the paint job was horrible - in the shower it dripped down the ceramic & over metal fixtures. Smoke alarm went off daily when taking a shower. We were frustrated that we asked at check-in if we could switch rooms because some of the side rooms had more open, clearer views of the beach. Ours was directly across from a building blocking the view significantly. We were told they were fully booked and didn't have anything at the moment since it was a Sat when we checked in. They told us to check back the next day. Even on Sun they still said they didn't have anything but would call us if someone checked out. They did call once but the room offered was one with a view even more blocked than where we were. Later that evening though, we could see that many of the rooms were available because cleaning would leave blinds open with the lights on so at night it was obvious no one was in the rooms. Also many of those rooms were updated significantly over ours. They had nicer furniture and remodeled bathrooms with glass doors. So they simply weren't moving us because they must have been a different price point. But honestly, the hotel was half empty the last night we stayed (Sat, Sun, Mon) so they could have upgraded us if they'd wanted to so we would have been more satisfied. Will likely not return here. Elevator wasn't working.

The area and accessibility of the beach were wonderful! We walked to restaurants to eat and souvenir shops too. Quick easy drive to Charleston. It is an older hotel, and i understand being next to the beach does come with certain caveats. But our room definitely had a musty smell and our flat sheets were damp, they blamed the "humidity " , but none of the other bedding was damp just the flat sheet. All in all it wasn't terrible I'm glad we had this opportunity to stay on the beach, the area is lovely!

The place is quaint but not modern. I needed to work online and the WiFi was adequate. However, there was no desk to work from and no chair. Had to sit in bed to work on my computer. The elevator was out of order and the steps were hard for me with my bad hip. Luckily we were only staying for two nights. Good restaurants within walking distance. Right on the beach.

Charged $10/day to park. This was not listed when I booked. Room was old, worn out, and dirty. Shower wouldn't drain. Had to demand we be moved to a different room rather than wait until the next day for the repair man. The a/c didn't work properly in the second room. Floor and bathrooms dirty. Shower in second room was uneven and water gathered on opposite end from shower head. Outside is even worse. Old a/c units lying in the parking area and empty boxes from new units strewn around, along with a pile of random trash. Horrible, horrible, horrible. You should be ashamed of yourself, charging $130/ni for that joke of an oceanfront hotel!

The hotel was amazing. Right on Ocean Blvd, the main strip, walking distance to everything. The room was very nice, and the view was breathtaking from the hotel to the beach. I'll definitely stay here every time I come to Isle of Palms 🌴🏖️🌊🌬️🌴.

This property needs a MAJOR update. The room smelled like mold as soon as we walked in and everything was really outdated and falling apart. The walls were peeling and chunks of wall were missing! A lamp fell apart, the water in the shower would puddle in a corner, the toilet handle had to be held the entire time or else it wouldn't flush, and this place had one of the WORST parking situations. The hotel charges you for parking and there's NOWHERE to park! You end up having to pay to park somewhere else. The staff were extremely friendly, so I guess that's something. Not worth it at all and would not recommend.
