Suburban Studios at the University

Cheap, but disappointing. We switched rooms as soon as we walked into our intended rooms because the air conditioner that was in the wall has cracks all around it and light coming through from outside. There were dead roaches all around it and the whole room smelled overwhelmingly like bleach. We moved rooms, thankfully. The new room was better-ish, but all the furniture was either rusty or water damaged, including the lamps and fridge. The headboard lights didn't work, and there was a huge gap under the door which we had to cover up so, again, roaches didn't crawl under at night. Which, coming from NYC, we're used to roaches, but they were everywhere! This property needs an exterminator. Basically, the photos online look NOTHING like the actual rooms. Not sure how this place gets a 7/10..... The pool looked nice, but it rained, so I can't comment on the integrity of that part of the property.

Fine for an overnight in a pinch The staff was nice. Place was run down. Smelled of mold and sewer. Everything was leaking. Not the greatest accomodations.

The air conditioner in the room has a good inch of filth where the air comes out. I wipe things down with sanitizer when I stay places. Some places were filthy. Then, someone tried to enter the room when I was asleep. She was from housekeeping. When she was confronted, she blamed us because we did not have out the Do Not Disturb sign. She had knocked twice, but did not announce that she was from housekeeping. It scared me.

I have stayed there several times over the last 3 years times because it was cheap. Just business stuff. Just a place to spend the night. Up early the next day and out the door. Always just one night. Cheap yes. Beginning to really go down hill, imho. Lots of construction workers. Housekeepers nice. They require a photocopy of your drivers license that they retain. Why? I can only guess that they have a lot of damage, cancelled credit cards and theft. Certainly is loud. Lots of comings and goings and loud hallway guffawing late into night. Work hard party hard , I guess. But cheap. Finally reached my breaking point with the young male clerk who is a real piece of work. Canceled last two remaining reservations. They were nonrefundable, but dear God, I couldn't stay there again. Cheap has limits. There are lots of hotel rooms in the Myrtle Beach area, 90,000 I am told. My advice: find another place and pay more to get a room not as sketchy, loud, beat up and unfriendly. I would rather sleep in my car than stay there again. Much better for business travelers at Comfort Suites, half mile on left toward Myrtle Beach. A little bit more money, but a world of difference in staff, cleanliness, and quiet.

I liked the convenience of restaurants within walking distance. The facility was relatively clean with no bugs. Breakfast was ok most mornings. The rooms and facilities look like they’re been repaired multiple times. I could not get the coffee maker to work in the room.

The room was good. Only issue was it stunk of cigarette smoke
