Holiday Inn Express

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 08 Jul 2008 rated 6 out of 10.

Price was great for the size of the rooms. Location was right in the middle of everything, short drive to all the sights. Pool was small, but cozy and rarely crowded.

Positives: Rooms were spacious for the price. Good location.

Negatives: All of the ice machines, on every floor, were broken. That is the only problem I encountered.

It was right on the highway which in one way was nice because it was close to the beach & attractions. But on the other hand it would take forever to get out of there, impossible to turn left onto the highway. Maid used my friends phone for 7 minutes while cleaning the room when she was roaming which cost her. 07 cents a minute. We were there for 4 nights, and by the vending machine there were beer cans there never picked up. Maybe one friendly person out of the whole crew. Pool was not kept up. I would not recommend to stay here.

Positives: It was right on the highway (literally) so it was close to attractions.

Negatives: The maid used my friends cell phone when cleaning the room. Hotel was not kept clean.

This was the worst hotel experience I have had in some time. Location is horrible, not in the heart of myrtle beach but on the outskirts. Have to drive everywhere and trying to get in and out of the hotel via highway 17 is impossible. There is no shuttle and to make matters worse at night, the hotel decides not to maintain proper lighting, so all of the entrance lights are out and you can't find the hotel. Rooms are nothing special and staff is very unfriendly. Do not stay at this hotel.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: Everything.

The staff at the front desk was friendly and helpful. However, they advertise online that there is a shuttle that travels to Broadway at the Beach and Barefoot Landing. This does not exist! It is hard to turn into the hotel. But they did have a nice breakfast buffet!

Positives: Our room was very clean.

Negatives: There is no shuttle as advertised and it is not close enough to the beach.

The front desk staff were great they helped me insured that I had a room because I was not able to check in on the original date planned but they took very good care of me and my guest. I was just disappointed with the room set up overall. I didn't like the fact that when we need fresh clean towels that their were none to be found. The note on the walls, tables telling the guest that the hotel was not up to standards did not set well with me and my guest. I have stayed at Holiday Inn Express in the past and this one was the worst I have ever seen.

Positives: The staff at the front desk for check in was expectation I was very pleased with them in that aspect. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful.

Negatives: The cleaning staff was horrible. I couldn't understand why at midnight there were no clean towels and we couldn't get any until the next morning.

This hotel is no longer a Holiday Inn Express. It hasn't met HIE criteria; and therefore, this hotel currently doesn't have a sign reflecting the hotel name. As you can imagine, no hotel sign caused at least an hour of delay in reaching the hotel.

Positives: Staff was extremely nice and understanding of travelers response to hotel change.

Negatives: It is no longer a Holiday Inn Express as of March 1, 2006.
