Wow!

This place definitely exceeded expectations with the price. Rooms seem to be recently renovated. I’d absolutely Recommend this place to anyone traveling to the area.

If I could give this place zero stars I would. The rooms are disgusting and look nothing like they look on the pictures online. The room they gave me had mold on the lampshade, paint chipping off the walls, broken outlet covers with exposed outlets. I asked the front desk person if I could cancel my reservation that I only reserved only an hour and a half before I got there, and he told me that I could cancel but he would charge me $800 if I did. I still didn't stay in the room. I left immediately. I booked through Expedia and after one month of discussion with Expedia they refunded my money. Expedia was never able to get ahold of the hotel for approval of my refund so they refunded me on their own. This is a shady, dirty place.

I’m sure I’m one of the last to stay here. Looks like it getting ready to be bulldozed like the others in the area.

This is a buy by the hour style hotel. We booked for two nights and left after 10 minutes because the room was filthy. People were smoking in their rooms even though it clearly stated no smoking. The room was so unsafe. There was a small latch between to the other hotel room but worse of all the door did not fully lock. When we locked the deadbolt there is a separation between the door and wall so big you could see that the deadbolt barely went into the whole.

This is a scam because I paid more than $400 dollars and when I went to get my room they had everything closed, meaning I lost almost $500. This is a robbery that this property did to me.

Horror of all Horrors. Fraudelenr

The room was deceiving from the pics sent . No office. Was manned by a hotel across the street that smelled of weed. Only access to the office was to ring a bell. Brown sheets and stained sheets on one bed. You would Not dare want to touch the microwave or rusty thing called an oven. Rotted wood for a desk. A latch hook keeping you and the next room separate . Ocean view was a glimpse of the ocean across the street between two nicer hotels. The cord to the air unit was wrapped around with tape and looked like it had stuff growing on it. I left and did not feel safe . No refund because it was booked through hotels.com the room was priced at $196. Fraudulent .

DO NOT STAY HERE! My partner and I are college professors who needed a cheap place to stay in Myrtle Beach for one night. The Anchor Motel was cheap - until they did not refund our $100 deposit. When I called to complain they said that we had left bloodstains in the bedsheets that they couldn't get out which is simply not true. My partner also saw a bed bug on the floor and we both had bites after our stay here and had to bug bomb our bedroom at home. A cheap place to stay but not worth it!

Drop ancor elsewhere!

The room was filthy, and the place overall is well worn! The old saying holds true "you get what you pay for",but i didn't expect to find a half smoked joint in the drawer while looking for the tv remote. I told the staff and it was shrugged off as no big deal!

Disgusting hotel. The rooms were dirty & the bedsheets were wet & stained when we checked in. There were roaches in the microwave. The floor was dirty with a look of haven’t been swept. The balcony was so nasty with residue of cigarettes. It smelled disgusting, the stove & refrigerator were disgusting as well. As soon as we checked in, we checked out. We had to get another hotel & they did not want to refund us. Very unsafe & unsanitary, would NOT recommend. The staff were useless.

Paid almost 400 for a room. Due to it being late. But absolutely under no circumstances should this property charge anything close to that. The linens had other peoples hair on it. There was a roach, the counters were peeling up, and the oven burners literally were disgusting and made of foil. It’s extremely loud outside. And our Balcony door wouldn’t even shut. If you have no place else to stay just sleep in your car.
