Sarah
Stayed there with my sister for a couple of days. It is an older and smaller property than some of the surrounding places, but the room was clean and comfortable. Really loved having the balcony overlooking the beach. Pool was nice. The biggest inconvenience was no elevator, which was only an issue when taking luggage to the room. Overall, it was a good place to stay for the price.
Teresa
What I DID NOT like was… I stayed in room 403 and on our balcony there is 1 huge flood light for the entire building and it’s hooked from our balcony and lights it up. Insects are attracted to the light, so not only are you blinded by it, you have bugs flying everywhere and its super bright on the balcony. Sitting on a balcony, ocean front at night, listening to the ocean i. The dark is our favorite thing to do. If it’s yours, DO NOT rent room 403. Other than that, the room was wonderful and the beds are extremely comfortable and as far as I could tell, this flood light did not affect any other room
David
Staff was friendly, property right on the beach. Only real problem was the TV not working
amber
It was good, will be staying again
Sarah
This is our favorite hotel. No frills so don’t expect the Ritz when you come here but it’s clean, right on the beach and if you book the studio you literally have front porch beach and pool access. Staff is always friendly and helpful, everything always works besides the ice machine is a little slow and outdated and the little convenient store attached is handy. Our trip was unfortunately impacted by about 3 days worth of the “renourishment” project closing the beach and beach access for the hotel, but that is not the hotels fault and is just part of life.
Joanne
This hotel is not a fancy hi rise type of hotel but it’s quite nice! All rooms face the ocean, and the rooms are very nice, clean, comfortable beds. The staff was also very nice. We loved staying there and would go back again, but would ask for a room on the second floor instead of the top floor because we didn’t know there isn’t an elevator until we got there!
Tammy
We traveled with a dog and we informed only when we got there that we had to be on the fourth floor because we had a dog and not of the first floor which is the room we booked because we had 5 people. Also was informed the day we got there that the beach access for closed because of work. Particularly booked this hotel because it was on the beach and was only informed that day that the beach was closed and we had to walk several blocks to get on the beach. We wouldn’t know about this hotel if that was the case. Also, the room was kind of dirty with stains on the sheets. We then just took them off because asking to get them changed was a hassle. We tried to contact Experian to get somewhat of a refund because this was just ridiculous But they just gave us a $75 credit which doesn’t really help me because I don’t know if I’d book again through Experian.
Tina
All in all my family had a good time. The place is okay. Maybe needs some updates on certain things and we definitely liked having our room changed from the 4th floor to the 2nd. We liked that our dog was welcome and we liked the location.
Meagan
Did not interact with staff much but when checking in/out, staff were nice. The room was clean upon arrival. However, the floors were very moist as if they had just mopped. Otherwise, I have no complaints. Parking is convenient, on the same side of the street. However, there are only stairs, no elevator, so I recommend only booking if all guests are able to comfortably walk up stairs.
Ranae
It was clean enough but ice machine is on its last leg and the rooms definitely need update. Whoever painted the walls and ceiling needs fired !!
Gina
Garden City Inn was very nice and a big plus we could bring our fur baby with us. Nice Ocean front rooms. Anytime we asked for anything they were very courteous and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Not exactly as expected… did love that the pool was right outside our door and great area though smaller than pictured. Beach view was nice! The room was not too clean. Grounds weren’t either. Air didn’t work very well. We only stayed one night, but had a kitchen with a lot of pans and utensils.
Dawn
Nice property but older. Rooms were ok, comfortable beds and great view of the ocean.
No safe in room, which would be a benefit, but overall comfortable.

Casey
The staff members were not helpful and they were very rude.
Angela
Prices are fair, room has all you need. Right on the water! We will be back!
Carol
Great location, easy beach access, helpful staff. Kitchen could have used a few more utensils for cooking and eating
Cody
Great place to stay.
Trudi
Great little hotel! Loved our stay and will stay again.
David
The rooms were clean but there was no elevator to the 2nd floor and up. This needs to be in the description of the rooms. Handicap people should no book any room other than the 1st floor.
Carla
Great location and friendly staff. Pool area was fantastic!!!
Jerry
Right on the beach, views were great! Really nice clean pool as well. Only downside is there is not an elevator.
BARBARA
A nice, clean older beach hotel
Stacy
The room was not clean the air conditioner didn't work properly and it seems like no one is putting money back in to this motel would not recommend to anyone ,the beach view was beautiful and the pool was maintained but as for the re
Deborah
It was amazing. Full refrigerator, micro wave, coffee pot, cabinet for food stiorage. Small couch for 3, plus small table with 2 chairs. Execellent for a week stay. Oh yea step in shower. Down size no elevator but shalloiw size stairs. Ocean view perfect!!!! Close to basics
Alicia
Do not stay at Garden City Inn. The reviews and photos online do not accurately reflect the state of the property. The beds are hard and uncomfortable, the room was not clean, and upper management does not care about your experience. I cut my stay short due to the dirty conditions of the room (soap scum and dirt in the shower, hair on the floor and towels) and how uncomfortable the bed and sheets were. Upon checking out, I asked the employee at the front desk if it was possible for us to have a partial refund for Saturday since we would not be staying there. He was kind and apologetic and urged us the reach out to the GM as he could not make that call. I reached out to Susan the GM and explained the situation. 4 days later and I have yet to hear back from her. Do not waste your money here.

Carson
The room was horrible. Please don’t spend your money here. The first room the sink didn’t drain and It stunk. The staff moved us to another room and It constantly sweat the entire time. The floor and walls were always wet It looked like your room we as sauna and this would be every morning when we wake up and in the evenings when we got back to the room. For the price that’s ridiculous they do not allow refunds. If I could go back I would have spent more money to stay somewhere else. We considered sleeping in our car. This was by far the most disgusting place we have ever stayed the pictures look nice but are deceiving. The staff did their job so I can’t fault them, the location was good but very hard to enjoy due to the quality of the “hotel”
David
Clean room, can’t beat the ocean view.
Christopher
Stay Away. DONT GO. Sucks
Joe
Everything was good. Definitely will be coming back
Jennifer
Room stayed damp/wet our entire stay. We thought they had just mopped the room right before we checked in, but it stayed wet the entire weekend. Balcony and pool were nice and convenient location.
Sarah
While the facility could use some updating including the stuff in the rooms, dents on bed frames, paint chipped etc, we always love the no frills stay and having easy beachside access.
Danielle
Location was amazing
Justin
Clean polite service
Scott
Arrived early and were able to check in with a small additional fee. We also received a room upgrade at no additional cost. The staff was friendly and we are looking forward to staying there again.
Ronald
Called the property prior to booking about trailer parking. I was told I could park my trailer in the lot but upon arrival I was instantly told that I couldn't have a trailer there. I spoke to the lady at the desk and she basically told me that I was never told that. Anyways other than that its a nice place just poor communication during the booking.
Charles
good stay until the plumping backed up into all the rooms on the bottom floor. great it happened on our last night there. everyone on the bottom floor was mad
Cheryle
The room was clean and it has a walk in shower in the bathroom. They had a rubber mat for the shower which was good for safety. They had a refrigerator with a freezer not a mini fridge. All rooms look out on the beautiful pool and ocean with a balcony.The price was reasonable. We enjoyed our stay and will stay here again.
Becky
Nice location and pet friendly. Very helpful staff.
Gina
All rooms are oceanfront views. We were on 2nd floor. Perfect view of Garden City Beach. Sat in the loungers at pool facing ocean and walked in ocean a few feet away. Bed was comfortable. Lots of pillows. Water pressure in bathroom was excellent. Shower was wonderful. Lots of towels, but only give you one hand towel per room. Odd. Room was cleaned every day. Floor was a little sandy when we got in room and contined to be that way throughout stay and had to wipe bottom of feet everytime we got in bed. No biggie! They do have a washer and dryer on 1st floor. Our room had a microwave, coffee maker, and regular size fridge. Big Location is perfect, close to Highway 17 where everything to eat and do is located. Just minutes to Surfside Beach and Myrtle Beach. Price was affordable, but it is middle of May before the summer crowd. Loved our stay at this classic beach motel. Just what I was expecting. Would definitely stay here again!
Michael
Great location, right on the beach. Rooms were very clean and staff very nice and helpful.
Cody
Our stay was overall was great. The only improvement I could suggest would be improvement on the WiFi. It would constantly go in and out. We had to end up linking the smart tv to our mobile hotspot to be able to watch tv.
Pamela
We enjoyed out stay here. We had an ocean view room, which was so relaxing. The beds were very comfortable and the room was clean. Great place to stay!
Michaela
The husband and I came up there for weekend. They stay was great! We was on the beach! No dunes no board walk to go down! We rate this property as a 10! Not a whole lot rooms but it worked just for us two. It has a nice size pool and the grilling area was just big enough. The price was great as well!
Tracey
The staff was friendly. The rooms and property clean. The pool deck was large and well maintained. Beds comfortable. We will be back. !!
Sarah
This was a nice clean room , but it needed more lighting and we had trouble cutting on the shower.
Dawn
My room overlooked the pool and ocean. Was delightful to have my coffee watching the birds and waves.
Staff was top notch.
Room was older but bathrooms were updated. The bed was comfortable. I'd stay here again. Best endorsement I can give.

Kimberly
Loved being right on the beach. It would be nice to have a mirror and a sink outside of the bathroom.
Ronald
It is not a hotel for two handicap people who had declined to the third floor. We had to wait over 10 minutes for a tenant to come to the front desk to check in.
Frank
Well worth the money
Kem
Clerk was not welcoming or personable at check-in at all. When asked for recommendations for dinner, he gave minimum answer with no directions or specifications. Television in room was inoperable. No volume and remote had no way to adjust. Housekeeping staff was very friendly. We had called ahead to state we were travelling with an elderly dog. The room we were assigned was situated on the third floor (no elevator) which was not convenient to addressing our pet's needs during our stay. Minimal pet comfort area. It's a shame as this property could be reconfigured as a unique retro boutique hotel with a little upgrade and investment. All rooms overlook the beach.
Amy
The room and amenities were perfect for all our needs. The staff was very helpful and kind. A lovely comfy place to stay.
Steven
The hotel has no elevators when you want it you have to walk for or fly the stairs to get to your room with your suitcases horrible front desk nasty won't give you any help terrible place don't go there
Robin
Nice place with beach view and pool
Kayla
You could not ask for a better location as far as walking out front to the beach! Pool was nice! Staff were super friendly! Only negative thing I could say would be the outside of the building it's self could use some love.. new paint , new locking system maybe! But all employees seemed to be keeping the grounds pretty clean.
Carolyn
I have stayed here last year and that room was clean. I stayed this year and stayed in room 301 which wasn’t that clean. The toilet flap was broke and the toilet bowl wasn’t that clean and the shower had black hair in the drain. Has a great balcony view though and The Salty Pickle is the next building over for some great food and a bar. I would stay again even though this trip wasn’t as clean as before.
George
Our favorite place. Very consistent from one year to the next.
Danny
Our room was overlooking the beach with a great view of the beach and the beautiful sunrises! The staff was very accomodating!!
Michael
We very much enjoyed looking out at the ocean from our room. And we were able to practically walk straight out onto the beach from our room.
Hattie
room overlooked beach. Ceiling fell in on the shower. Unable to shower the morning we left.
Suzannah
The staff was great except for one who was rude the entire stay. Because my flight was late at night I ask if my luggage could be held at the front desk so I could enjoy my last day on the beach. I was told this was no problem. The following day at my check out I was told no by the extremely rude employee which put me in a bad situation with no back up plan.
Courtney
Staff was amazing and helpful.

KELLI
I am astounded at the rudeness of the staff. I called days before our trip and added the pet deposit. Their website says pet friendly. When we checked in, they placed us in a room that doesn't allow pets. They then said we had to \"get rid\" of our pet in order to stay there. The desk attendant was on the phone with another person who was very loudly saying that it wasn't their problem, it was mine. So incredibly rude and uncalled for in a hospitality industry. We were told we had 30 minutes to leave or get rid of the pets. After driving 6 hours to be there and paying a pet fee in advance, none of this was acceptable. So we left the \"pet frendly\" hotel and found somewhere else to stay.
Jasmine
Amazing ocean front location.
Jeanette M
Even though the property was recently updated (2022), you can still see some evidence of it being an older property. Regardless, the view was perfect and the staff was very polite and accommodating.
Alan
I was ground floor and had a glass door to the pool deck with a great view of the ocean!
Camilla
Nice staff
Paul
Small room but adequate since we simply plan to sleep there. Good oceanfront view and a location with access to many of our favorite sites
Carolyn
It was a quick overnight trip for us. Convenient and well priced for our purposes.
Charles
Yes
Kelly
The space was very clean, they left plenty of towels and wash clothes, the laundry was easy accessible and $1 for wash $1 for dryer. The views were glorious. If you have hard time walking up stairs there’s no elevator. This is my new home whenever I’m in town. It’s small quaint and cute.

Renovated clean older hotel but in great condition staff friendly close to Murrells inlet and Myrtle beach can't beat the price

Garden city Inn was a great place to stay being right on the beach. Convenient to other amenities. Staff was courteous and helpful. Had a great time discovering the area.

Though the hotel is dated. The room was very clean, staff excellent, and balcony on
the beach no matter what room you had.

The room was clean, the staff was friendly. The only bad thing is there's no elevator. I did not realize this until I checked in, and they had no open rooms on the bottom floor, and was put on the third floor and with my health issues I couldn't enjoy going in and out to go to the beach as I would have liked to.

We did not get the warm fuzzies when checking in. The \"lobby\" is just a small room with no decoration, staff member was not outgoing or friendly. I was aware that there was no elevator, but the outside concrete steps on a cold rainy afternoon were not fun. Room was just ok. No toilet paper holder so we went old school and had to sit the toilet paper on the bathroom sink. The back cover was missing on the door lock which made it look run down. The $14 \"resort\" fee we were charged was funny. \"Resort\"??? The room rate was low, so I guess you get what you pay for.

I have stayed here before, and I knew the place was run down, but it was clean. This time it wasn't clean, sheets and blankets were stained, and the internet was in and out all weekend. I stayed on the top floor, and there are no elevators. Staff was preoccupied talking and joking with each other instead of checking me in promptly. The only perk was the ocean view.

Booked a balcony but got ground level by the pool. Staff was VERY sketchy we didn’t feel comfortable leaving personal belongings in the room while we left for the day. Felt like we were being watched!! Beds were on some kind of metal frame that moved and were very loud. Tried the pull out bed but that was rusted and chipping and the sheets were dirty and had rust all over them.
Karen
Great staff and location! The room was clean, spacious and had everything we needed.
Jeffrey
Staff was very nice. Room was clean, floors were not mopped. Beds firm but ok. Beautiful view. We were on 4th floor and NO elevator. That was a little difficult with bad knees but we made it through. Great location.

This place has a great price and is very clean. It’s right on the beach! Realize it is older and may not have the pizzaz of a new built hotel/condo.
Shane
The front desk guy was really nice. The room was just OK. The beds were awful like you couldn’t even roll over without it making a horrible scraping noise on the floor. There was also a stain on one of our beds. The bathroom was clean and the room was a good size. We tried to check in early but they said they charged a $25 fee which was never unheard of from me so we wasted time so we didn’t have to pay the fee overall great place would stay here again.
