Polynesian Hotel / Bahama Motel

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 16 Jul 2011 rated 4 out of 10.

This hotel is typical of hotels of it's star level. Staff was polite in spite of a minor incident where hotel maintenance used poor procedure by barging into our room in the late evening. Avoid what happened to us by opening your balcony door carefully. To the downstairs guests, it sounds like moving furniture around.

Positives: Central to restaurants and stores in the area.

Negatives: Hotel staff barged into our room without proper procedure or warning.

Office personnel somewhat unfriendly, room was not very clean upon arrival and was not stocked with necessary supplies. Advertised as a Golf and Beach Resort, saw no signs of golf. Maid service very slack in doing their jobs. Room was supposed to be oceanfront, instead it was pool front with no privacy at all and other's staying at hotel very loud and noisy till 2 or 3 in the morning.

Positives: Close access to beach.

Negatives: Not very clean, inadequate maid service, access to room difficult due to locks on doors.

Not what we expected at all. I have been to myrtle beach several times, & I know that there are several older properties there, which is fine with us. But the room that we were originally supposed to get on the 3rd floor was not available. The room that we were given on the 4th floor was atrocious. There were cigarette burn marks all over the bathroom sink, the furniture was peeling & falling apart. The appliances were quite old and the microwave looked to be a fire hazard. Given 2 rooms on the fifth (top floor) to see if we wanted one of them. One was quite similar to the first one, but the other was somewhat better. They were both as far away from the elevator as they could possibly be. So every trip out meant trekking up and down steps. We made reservations to avoid the hassles that we encountered because we knew that we would be arriving late at night and didn't want to go from hotel to hotel searching for a room. The following morning when the maid service came and knocked on the door, my husband went to open the door and the handle came off in his hand. Par for the course we figured. We weren't given any information on where things were located at the hotel (the pools, laundry facilities, ice machine, etc). Will not stay there again.

Positives: Decent location and oceanfront.

Negatives: Apparently there is a floor given to undesirables who live short term at the hotel which was where the first room we were given was located.

Positives: The location was wonderful!

Negatives: The indoor pool, very hot and run down.

As soon as we entered the room the stinch was horrible. The sheets were not clean and the bed was full of stains. The<BR/>TV sparked and almost caught on fire in the first ten minutes. Just an overall horrible experience.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: Everything.

Overall this hotel was what<BR/>I expected. A less expensive place for college kids to stay on spring break, it was nice being right on the beach. The hotel was not perfect or new but not dirty or unsafe. The carpet in the hall on the bottom level was always wet. Overall its a good place to stay on a budget.

Positives: It was on the beach.

Negatives: The hotel was older and not so clean.
