Springmaid Beach Resort, Myrtle Beach

I really liked that this hotel was so family oriented and reasonably priced. Everyone was nice and friendly. Pools were clean. Rooms were clean. This was our first time staying here with our kids and we all loved it and can't wait to come back!

No internet signal, no cell signal and the phone in our room didn't work. This made simple things like making reservations, confirming appointments and researching the area very difficult. No ice machines in the entire hotel. I was told they were removed for sanitary reasons. Nice. Take a pile of bricks and put a bedsheet around them and you'll have an idea of how comfy the bed's are. For the money I was appalled. Go to Myrtle, sleep in your car and you'll fare better than this rat hole. I told management what I wrote here and the reply was "yeah, we get that alot here".

Springmaid was awful. I paid for a "Deluxe room", but they gave me "Standard". The room was tiny, and we had full sized beds, instead of queen. We had our "Do Not Disturb" card on the door, so that my 1 year old son could take his afternoon nap...well, Heavens to Betsy, the maid used her key card and barged on in....looked at me and asked when I was leaving. I told her, in 3 days, that we had just arrived. She kept asking why hadn't I already checked out. Also, the sheet they give you at check in plainly says: Quiet time from 11pm until 8 am...So, if someone could explain to me why people were allowed to run up and down the hallways, banging on doors, laughing loudly, slamming doors loudly, I'd love to know. Our stay there was truly, rotten. This was the most awful stay I've ever had at Myrtle Beach. This was my first, and my last stay at Springmaid. I do believe it is safe to say, I'll drive much further to stay somewhere much nicer, where you get the room you pay for and the staff is a little nicer. Also, there was a huge bug in the bathroom.

The Springmaid property is located on a strip of beach that is less populated and clean, and with a great pier only feet away. This being the upside, the "hotel" is in need of a lot of cleaning, updates, and repairs. The pools are clean but the lazy river is miniscule. Their are outdoor showers conveniently placed at the bridges form the beach to use on exit which is a great idea!! The staff seem to be helpful and polite, but have a lot to make up for because the facility is very old and seen better days. As stated above, their is an airport nearby, but we only heard the planes when we were outside, and it is a small airport, so not much traffic. The elevators are old and take forever and smell badly. The stairwells were cleaned, but when we first arrived their was a strong odor. We had cheerleaders here as well, but unfortunately they practiced and competed right off our balcony!! Overall, not sure whether we would stay here again, i really would have liked to have a more updated "hotel".

got a deal off Yuupon for an OCEANFRONT refurbished room..checked into our room Friday to find an old, dank, smelly, horribly decorated chipped furniture, nasty room...and the hotel clerk informed me all rooms are OCEANVIEW not FRONT..so our view from our tiny old balcony was of all the other guests and their rooms, not the ocean. the Elevator smelled so bad, I just could not bear another ride. The pictures on their website of the rooms looked NOTHING like our old 1970's room. and the place is old looking all over..beware..we immediately checked out and the front desk clerk did not even flinch or try to offer a better room.he Knew and had been through this before. we moved up the block to the Atlantic Grand, 5 stars compared to Springmaid. We were very happy.

The motel is located on the southern end of Myrtle, so its nice & quiet the planes overhead are not that noisy & very interesting to watch.The office staff is very nice Donna is GREAT at finding the best rate possible. The balconies are not private but you do have a good view of pier.We stayed here a week in Aug. & a week in Sept. but have decided not to stay here anymore. The rooms are getting run down, paint is chipping & peeling everuwhere, the room we stayed in had hardly any hot water, & in Aug. the air conditioner leaked so bad they brought a big fan in to dry carpet the last day we were there. It's ok if you just want a good room rate, but there are a lot of nicer places to stay.

This was are first stay at SpringMaid. Everything was great, We had two rooms both were very clean. HouseKeeping has hard Job keeping Motels clean on the Oceanfront but your staff does a Great Job. I seen where someone spilled something in the Elevator, I let the Front Desk know, and it was cleaned. You have Great Food at your Peir.

We have been coming to Springmaid for over 20 years and we have never had any of those problems that have been listed in revious reviews. The maid service has always been good for us. They clean every day and refresh linens and towels... A pool cleaning company cleans the pools every morning. But, a pool can get dirty during the day when people don't pick up after themselves. I have never seen roaches. There are bugs just because you are at the beach but never have we had them in our rooms. I have never heard of robberies. We were there from Saturday the 3rd until Thursday the 8th and we had a marvelolus time. No hotel is going to be free of trouble because people bring trouble with them... Springmaid has been a home away from home for us as we raised our children and now as we take time away from everyday life to enjoy the beach.....

How can "Well I was thinking about staying there" write a negative review when they did not stay there?

I was just about ready to book a room for our vacation when something said you should look at the reviews...I am glad I did. Won't be staying here.
