Good stay, convenient location, great price
This was a pleasant stay in a convenient location. It was Oceanside and walking distance to all that IOP has to offer, which is great. The reason for choosing this place was that it was dog friendly. They have an included continental breakfast with offerings such as “make your own pancakes”, fruit, juice, cereal and hard boiled eggs (but nowhere to sit, so you have to take it back to your room). The room was comfortable, but the bathroom could use an update. Also there was no carpet, it had tile which made it feel cold. However, maybe we were given this room because we had a dog…so if that was the case it’s understandable. Now, it’s located very close to a bar/concert venue, so if you’re not a fan of loud music, this place it’s kind of loud. However, we were treated to a “free” concert next door from one of the balconies…so we didn’t mind. We would stay there again for its location, and price.

The elevator was broken our entire visit of 4 days. We had to drat our bags and do 3 flights of stairs with all of our luggage and everytime we left the property. Also, our second night the fire alarm went off and the building was evacuated while the fire department checked out the building. We never received any word on what the problem was or anything.. never addressed. Very poor customer service.

My friend and I stayed here for 4 nights this week. The staff was nice, however the room smelt like mold and old corn, to the point where I developed a cough. The shower was overflowing, the smoke alarms literally went off from shower steam. Mold behind the bed. Stains on the sheets. Location was great but this hotel honestly felt so dirty.

I had a great time at Isle of Palms. Seaside Inn was a perfect spot just to rest at night. There are walkable restaurants and pubs on the street, making it easily accessible. It is also right on the beach and I loved being able to go for walks. The staff were terrific and accommodating all the time. Unfortunately, there were a couple of things, like the fire alarm going off twice in one day about three hours apart because of a shower(apparently). Also, the elevator was not working, and only on the day I left were people working on it. There are visible maintenance issues, when looking closely, but overall I enjoyed my stay.

The pictures posted online are very misleading. The entire property needs updating. The microwave in the room did not work. The fridge leaked overnight and soaked some of my belongings. There are no curtains on the windows, and the mini blinds do not block the hall lights. One of the pictures posted online is of a sun deck with lounge chairs. There are no chairs only two older picnic tables. I don’t typically complain, but this was truly disappointing.

No worth it.
The room was too small. The beds were old and very uncomfortable. When we arrived there were no signs telling us where to park to check in. They don’t have on site parking. We won’t stay here again. The window didn’t have curtains, we couldn’t keep the light out of the room. It was hard to sleep.
