I was scared when they gave me 109 . Got oceanfront for 3 days and was on the bottom floor by the pool so just days of people looking at you crazy or have to worry about personal items coming over. Door knob very loose so you have to work the key to get it to connect to open the door. No hot water for the shower but hot water in the sink. Public trash can sits right in front of the room door. No one would dump it the whole time I was there even called to front desk. Had to do it from my phone as the phone in the room was just for show and didnt work. Parking is very bad as people would block off spots with cones or you had people parking that wasnt even supposed to use it. First time being on the bottom at a place and didnt enjoy the room. Glad I had activities to do to keep me busy

It's a 2 star hotel for a reason. However, the overall stay was fine. All staff we encountered were super friendly & helpful. No bugs spotted (other reviews say otherwise) & the room stayed relatively cool. The elevator barley works, at one point we thought we were going to get stuck because the doors would only open a couple of inches then closed back immediately. Parking is open to the public, so it was difficult to find a spot. We walked as often as we could because once you leave your spot is gone. If you're like my family & only need a place to sleep & shower, it's sufficient & budget friendly.

When my expert advice would be not to go to the polynesian, if you ever decide to go on vacation, it is the worst experience I've ever had in my life. It ruined a complete vacation for me in my life that was supposed to be in our honeymoon, but it was so bad we ended up having to get another hotel on her birthday to celebrate both her birthday and our wedding and our anniversary because it sucked so bad at that hotel. This staff is nice and everything else, but the hotel is nothing like it seems they will tell you that they have a lazy river in a hot tub and everything else. The lazy river is a pool, a kiddie pool with a shroom in it and the hot tub half works and has no bubbles and the pool. Was disgusting, so pleased to you all do not go to the polynesian you will only get bad results and your wife will cuss, you like mine did.

We got stuck for 15 minutes on the elevator the pool and the inside pool and the hot tub was absolutely filthy was afraid for my children to swim. This was the worst place to stay at Myrtle Beach. We go to the beach and stay four times a year and I will never stay at this hotel again

The staff were very nice. The bed was clean. The floors were filthy. There was one outlet for the tv, coffee maker and microwave. We had to plug and unplug the coffee maker and microwave every time we used them because there wasn’t enough outlets to keep them both plugged in. The problem was the outlet also. It was loose in the wall and moved and sparked every time you plugged or unplugged anything. Mold on the ceiling in the bathroom. Message on the wall in the elevator to call the front desk if we needed anything. Problem was that the phone in the room didn’t have a phone line. It was useless. Had to use a code to get into the pool. Code wouldn’t work. I tried several times but could not get it opened. Another guest that was already inside the gate had to open it for me. Refrigerator worked good and the air conditioner worked good. Air conditioner was very loud. Cabinet that the refrigerator was in was old and wouldn’t stay shut, neither would the drawers in the cabinet. They provided parking was terrible. Not enough parking for all the guests. Had to walk a distance with all our luggage because there weren’t enough luggage carts. I believe I only saw 3 luggage carts. One of the carts was falling apart and has a flat tire. This place should be torn down and rebuilt. It is not safe. We left to return home early.

Parking here is scary the area isn’t the best but I guess for the price it makes sense. Its beach walkable so that was great and near the boardwalk so that was also nice. when it came to quiet hours there were people partying, smoking, and also having altercations it definitely got a bit scary after that so if you have little ones with you I wouldn’t book here just to save some money I would go spend a bit more money just to be in a safer area. It also smelled horrible just straight cigarettes and weed everywhere.

This was a very disappointing experience overall. While the condition of the room itself wasn’t the worst, the property is in serious need of renovation. The suite only had one TV, and the room closest to the patio had no lighting at all. Ther was and only two electrical outlets in the entire suite worked.

The hallways were in poor condition, with trash cans and mop buckets everywhere due to leaking AC units, which made the environment feel unsafe and unclean. The parking garage was extremely hazardous and honestly felt like a death trap.

Customer service was inconsistent. One of the nighttime security guards was very polite and helpful, but the other (a white male with glasses) was rude and dismissive when I asked a simple question about the vending machine—he rolled his eyes and seemed irritated.

Housekeeping was unacceptable. After giving the housekeeper our dirty towels and washcloths, we never received clean replacements. We were told there were none available, forcing us to purchase our own from Walmart. On the first day, we reported that the sheets and blankets were dirty (stained, ripped, and felt gritty), and although we were told they would be replaced, no one ever followed up—even after leaving a message at the front desk. We again had to go out and buy our own sheets.

The only positives about this stay were the outdoor pool and the hotel’s close access to the beach. Unfortunately, those were not enough to make up for the overall stay.

This hotel will meet your needs for your stay. It is in the perfect location on the beach and the access could not be easier to walk right out on the sand. It is definitely a dated building and could use some updating, however the room was clean, atmosphere was quiet, and all of the staff we encountered were friendly and went out of their way to help. The multiple pools were also well maintained. If you would prefer a more resort style stay or upgraded amenities, this may not be the place for you. However if you’re looking for a clean, safe, meet your needs type place, that is also directly ON THE BEACH, with indoor and outdoor pools in the heart of everything, you won’t be disappointed. Would stay again.

If you asked the staff any questions they show attitude and act like they don’t want to respond. Overall the experience staying there was a 0/10.
