The people that run it are super nice family, rooms are cozy. Beds are on the soft side if you like a firm mattress. Everything is close and the pier is in walking distance.

I took my family on Spring break based on the reviews from Hotels.com/Google. We were there for 4 days. These were my pros and cons. PROS: Great location. Great view of the beach from our balcony. We could just walk right across to the beach and pier. Great customer service. Check in was easy and they usually will call and confirm your stay on the day of. That was a nice touch. He called me by name when I walked in the front door. Nice touch. The hotel is close to other areas for shopping and dining, and is along the strip. The AC/ Heater worked great. The room smelled really clean and sanitized, but the bleach was a bit too strong. CONS: They have no elevators there so walking up 4 flights of stairs with luggage....with kids was exhausting. No breakfast service. The pool is at the front of the hotel, so there's no privacy if youre swimming. People off the street can just look in the pool. No laundry service. Didn't like the fact I could hear noise from off the streets with cars, people talking etc. There was no blackout curtains, so it was way too bright in the room. On the balcony, they have carpeting that had missing pieces. Overall, it was a good stay because with the kitchenette, we were able to make our own breakfast and enjoy our family time, even though the weather was unpredictable there; some days were cold and windy, and my allergies were not happy with that at all. But we made the trip fun regardless!

a Good little motel. The rooms were kind of small for my family of 3, but we were not there to hang out in the room. Room had a kitchenette, with a full size fridge, which was a surprise. The location was great and had a few of the ocean. And for the price, we were very happy.

Quick trip to the beach- this is a small family owned hotel. The staff was awesome! The bathroom was a bit dated but everything worked and this was a nice location with some street noise but a easy walk to the beqch

What a lovely little spot at the beach! Service was wonderful. The room was very clean. The location was perfect for beach, dining, shopping, and boardwalk. We will definitely stay there again. Kudos to the family run business.

This hotel is so cute! The local was excellent. We were getting in late and the family made sure we had access to our key. They went above and beyond! We will be visiting again!!

My son and I stayed at the Darlington Inn while we were in town for a Coastal Carolina football game weekend. We couldn't have been more pleased. The room was immaculately clean (as was the bathroom) and there were extra blankets left out for us. The internet hummed and the TV reception was crystal clear. When we got back to the room after the game, we were delighted to find out that we had several delivery options with local eateries. That came in very handy since we were rain-soaked from the game and not presentable to go out. The balcony had an ocean view and even though it rained, it was still nice to just sit out there and chill. We'll definitely be back with the whole family sometime in the future.
