Spark by Hilton Hilton Head Island

swimming pool too small

We slept in everyday, so cleaning never managed to get in our room. The floor was filthy after the first day from sand and silt. The bathroom either didn’t have a fan or it was tied to one of the lights and was broken. The room was constantly humid and our swimsuits never really dried. The public areas were clean and well kept. There were a lot of families, most of whom were great. Eating breakfast to the sound of a girl being beat by her younger brother with a stick wasn’t fun on that one day though. The location was a two block walk from the beach and was quite close. Mostly what you’re paying for here is the location.

This hotel is exceptionally low quality. Bare minimum necessities for the room are not available. Everything is bolted down. The lock system and the doors do not work at times. During my visit, the system was completely down. You had to have an employee let you in the room, and you could not leave the room. There were no cups in the room for water, no ice holders or ice available for the rooms. Later in the evening, you could not find an employee to let you back in the room. Even with all the problems, and having to let patrons back into the room, the hotel only staffed one person. Person. It's a great location, but it functions more or like a low quality youth hostel in a hotel.

👎🏻We enjoyed the poolside view, but music plays 24/7; when the AC is running you can’t hear it, but when it turns off, it gets annoying if you’re a light sleeper 👎🏻 Breakfast is a bagel bar. It was good but not a lot of variety. Children and teens might not like much on the bar. 👍🏻 Rooms are clean and there’s a lot of storage space 👍🏻 Free parking and breakfast 👍🏻 Pool and elevators 👍🏻 Beds are comfy and linens are soft for great sleep

The location is decent. Like a 4 min drive to the public access to the beach. I forget what the beach is called but there is alot of free parking. The rooms are very normal hotel rooms, nothing special, the room was clean at least. The breakfast is very lackluster with only things like coffee, cereal, bagels & muffins. No actual hot food. The building must be very old, the elevator is super slow even to get to the next floor. So i took the stairs alot & they arent very pleasant either. Getting to & from your room just feels very inconvenient. All in all, wasnt bad, wasnt the best either.

Great property for families.
