Country Inn & Suites By Carlson, Myrtle Beach at Waccamaw, SC

This hotel was great. Speedy check in\out, helpful staff, nice pool..cold though, great bed, and I loved how close the hotel was to everything. I do think u need more non starch selections at breakfast. We would absolutely stay here again.great value.

Athought I only stayed for one night, The hotel was good. I was comfortable, the rooms were clean and the breakfast was great!! The only thing that was bad was that next door is an adult place called Girls Girls Girls, which is innappropriate for children to see when staying at the hotel. I think that place should move out. Other than that, the hotel is very good.

This place is a dump, but before I talk about the hotel, I want to share the nightmarish customer service I received from [...] the hotel staff.[...] It started off poorly when there some error in transferring my reservation to the hotel. Apparently only part of my last name showed up in the computer and the front desk clerk couldn't find my reservation. She couldn't have been less concerned [...]. Once the reservation was straightened out, we got to the room and realized that it was not what I booked. The room was supposed to have two beds and a fold out couch; it only had the two beds. I had booked a two night stay, so with it already being late, we decided that we would stay the first night, and find a decent place for the second. So I took my proposition to front desk clerk[...] pleading with the apathetic front desk clerk to let me cancel the second night of our stay. This seemed like a very simple and reasonable request given that I had been given the wrong room [...].During my 3 hour battle, I was greeted with about as much concern and compassion as you would receive if you brought the wrong form to the DMV. It was so ridiculous that I wouldn't have been surprised if Ashton Kutcher jumped out from behind the counter to tell me I was being Punk'd. Finally by some miracle, the front desk begrudgingly agreed to refund the second night of our stay (probably just to shut me up) and I thought it was over. [...] I still have a couple of days until the refund is supposed to finally process, so I'll have to wait and see if that actually happens. [...]On to the hotel itself … as I mentioned, it is a dump. Scenic views include the bustling traffic of Hwy 501, a bum pushing a shopping cart around an abandoned shopping center and the neon lights of Fantails Adult Show Club. Parking becomes an issue at night due to overflow parking from the adjacent strip club and it was somewhat surprising that the rooms were not also offered at an hourly rate because of this convenient proximity. We had to park in a no parking area, because all of the acceptable parking was full. My initial feeling after the debacle with front desk was that we would wake up and the car would have been towed … it was not, this was most certainly the highlight of the stay. There was also constant muggy feeling, not just from the humidity in the hot July air, but from the very real feeling that you could be mugged or stabbed at any moment in the area surrounding the hotel's dimly lit parking lot. Honestly, a 1 star rating is far too high but unfortunately that is the lowest possible option. The customer service rating for the hotel [...] should definitely be a negative number.

The hotel was nice and clean the staff was very friendly and helpful it seemed they were not very prepared for the amount of guest since it was not only Easter weekend but spring break. They were under staffed for the breakfast bar and had no extra towels for the pool or rooms

I never stayed at a Country Inn and Suites until this one. I went to Myrtle Beach to go Christmas shopping. And they had a fireplace that was lit it was in the lobby just so beautiful. The lady that checked us in was very nice and helpful with places to eat and directions to all the malls and even gave me coupon books. I will be staying here every time we are in the Myrtle Beach area.The breakfast where you can make your own waffles and the country gravey bisc were very good. Did I mention they had there own library to pick out a book to read. Very cozy place.

We were in town for three nights for the bike rally. A great room for the price. After the first night, the hot water did not get very hot...just a little warm. Room was very clean and hotel staff friendly. I thought the continental breakfast could have had a little more variety, but overall, not bad.

Location was next to a "Gentlemen's club". Not a place I want my children to ask questions about. My wife was upset the entire weekend about this. Not a good time. Room was clean and I have stayed at other Country Inns, so I was disappointed by this location.

We enjoyed our stay. The rooms were very clean, and everyone was friendly and helpful.

The hotel was very peaceful and quiet. We had no complaints. I usually always have something to compain about because I am very picky. There is a nice front porch with a couple of rocking chairs and tables on both sides of it. It was great to be out in the chairs at night after we came in from the beach. The beach is only about ten minutes away and there are some great Clothing Outlets not far from the hotel. If you go to the beach check out the 2nd Ave. Pier. It has a restaurant,a small store, and restrooms on the second floor. You can also fish on the pier. There is a bar on the third floor which is really cool.

Upgraded when air conditioner did not work in first room. Breakfast selection was very poor and got worse each day. Opened an hour later on weekend which meant we could not use.
