Had a great time here. Nice clean room. Service and host were fantastic. The owner is new and very keen to make sure you have an enjoyable stay
We were very glad we stayed here. Clean and comfortable. The bed was so nice that l hated to get up.
Beds smelled clean and fairly comfortable. Parking lot was well lit area was quiet. Staff was friendly. Rooms were dingy with age. Couldn't find a working ice machine. Ease in proximity to 95. I stopped here on my way to Washington D.C. from Florida. Picture were tbe next morning after my stay. I arrived at 1 am too tired for anything but sleep.
Nice environment clean rooms being remodeled stop in for a stay you will enjoy.
Clean and perfectly adequate. For a budget hotel, this place gets it right :)
Very good value. Close to interstate. Was on a road and stopped off here. Friendly staff. Fast food available near by
Enjoyed the stay. The place needs a face lift and some TLC and you couldn't tell em nothing. Great staff was well
Nice clean rooms. First time we have been to South Carolina and the staff were friendly ! And its inexpensive
If I could give this more than 5 stars, I 100% would. This is my favorite place to stay at. The owners are very friendly! Anytime I travel and I’m at South of the Border I always stay at this motel. It’s right next to the attraction/shops but it’s 1 minute down the road on a quiet street. Rooms are cozy and comfortable. I stay here any opportunity I get. The owners are so welcoming they remember me from past times my daughter and I stayed. My daughter loves them, and they enjoy seeing her and even taking little walks around the building with her! If anyone I know travels to this area I will always recommend! Can’t thank them enough for everything they do!

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
