Oceanfront Litchfield Inn

The beachfront location is outstanding with a beautiful setting by the ocean. The staff offers excellent and friendly service, making guests feel welcome and well taken care of.

I went through AAA auto to find a room near Brookhaven Gardens SC. This motel was very convenient and right on the beach. I signed up for a room that said it had an ocean view, at what I thought was a very reasonable rate, I think it was $140 per night AAA rate. I thought it was an off-season rate as school was not out yet. Good deal. I specified I could not climb stairs. When I got to the inn front desk I was shown on a map the room location, which was overlooking the pool and it was noisy with corn hole games, with an ocean view if you would look real hard out the corner of the window, and with stairs up to it. (I think I would call it "ocean ajacent"). I guess it was opposites day. There is an elevator on the property, but it is at the opposite end of the property, too far for me with bad knees. So the nice gentleman at the desk took the time to find me another room that would be more accommodating. Great, 5th floor in "the tower" with an ocean view and across from the elevator for just $80 more total. OK, too tired to argue the cost difference and incorrect description on their listing. The room had a great view, I loved sitting out on the porch watching the ocean and hearing the waves. It was a clean room, tile floor, furniture a little worn, nothing fancy, but fine. I enjoyed it very much. When I looked a my credit card bill today the bill was $428 total for two nights and yes I know tax is added, but still, ouch. Be aware.

The unit had significant mold which hadn’t been cleaned up in a long time including mold on the he bed frame, wooden lamp base on the night stand and the wall behind the bed. The manager stated they didn’t have any other openings even though they did on-line and only offered to have the room cleaned. The level of mold was not something someone could come in a quickly/safely resolve. This was at 9:00 pm after a long drive with a 4 yr old. As a result, I had to find another place to stay at 9:30 pm. It seemed like they didn’t care since the reservation was made through Trip Advisor.
