Residence Inn Myrtle Beach Oceanfront

Stayed at this property Thursday - Monday. First, I will start off with the positives. Location is great, on the southern end of the ***** near the airport. So, the area is quiet which I liked. Don’t listen to anyone saying it’s a bad neighborhood. We walked to two restaurants nearby and didn’t feel unsafe. There are some nice homes around there! Property is a newer one. We had an oceanfront studio room and we had our dogs with us. Room was a great size with a large balcony, kitchenette with a full sized fridge. Bathroom was large with a walk-in shower stall. We were on the 6th floor but the way the building is designed, it felt a lot higher than the 6th floor. Great view of the ocean. Bed was comfortable. All the staff we encountered were very nice. Pool area was very nice with a two-tiered pool. Pool is also partially covered so it stays in the shade. There was also a small splash area for kids. Very large grassy area to walk your dogs. Gas fire pits you can turn on yourself (timer) to enjoy a drink or have a conversation. Free daily hot breakfast. Complimentary Beach towels for guests (they give you a claim card for a towel) they will hold your claim card until you turn in the used towel. Either you can get a fresh towel or get your claim card back. I actually liked this idea because it almost guarantees you a towel! The lobby, outside common and pool areas were always kept very clean. Literally you’re just steps to the beach. My favorite part! Now, for the items that need to be mentioned for guests and feedback to the property in general…the parking garage is VERY tight. So please be very careful driving in it. If you have a very large vehicle, the garage may not be able to accommodate that, so you may want to call ahead about an alternative parking arrangement. I have an Infiniti QX60, and it was a tight fit for an SUV of that size. I would say anything larger, may be a problem. This isn’t the hotels fault. Clearly, they built the garage to accommodate as much as possible with the limited amount of space they had (property is rather narrow). The interior hallway carpet has seen its better days. Definitely time to replace it. But the 4 nights I was there I didn’t see anyone vacuum the hallway. Just doing that would go a long way. Yes, there’s sand everywhere and that’s to be expected. But the hallways just generally looked a little neglected. Cleanliness of the room was good upon first inspection. But as time went on you start to notice little things. With that being said, you need to remember oceanfront hotels really take a beating. So definitely allow a little grace. But the bathroom shower stall looks like it hasn’t been “deep cleaned” in a while; there were some pink and black mold spots wherever there was caulk. That can easily be remedied with spraying some bleach from time to time. The pool deck is small. Not many places to layout in the sun if that’s what you’re wanting. It wouldn’t hurt if they expanded the pool deck i

Stayed one night (Aug 10–11) and was billed for two. At check-in, I was told my room was canceled without a phone call-only an email-while we were driving in. The room I was given had someone else’s name on the TV and dirty sheets with a large footprint. Cleanliness and organization were far below Marriott standards. If you expect quality service, skip this property.

Arrived late Friday night to find sand in both beds as if sheets werent changed from previous guests. Since housekeeping wad gone for the day, we were told to come to the front desk if we wanted new sheets to remake our beds. Just gross and bad business.

Peaceful My one night stay was wonderful. Everyone was so nice and polite. The room was super clean. I would stay here over and over again.

We enjoyed our stay! We will be back in the future. Great for families, well stocked kitchen, full size refrigerator, walk out to the beach, friendly staff and very clean. 10/10

Really nice property quite nice view and staff is very pleasant and helpful
