Ratings and reviews
1.5 / 5.0
I did read the reviews so I knew not to expect much. The beach was beautiful. The room needs a fresh coat of paint. Stains all over the walls. Evening front desk person could smile. Definitely seemed he did not want to be there. Elevator didn't work.
2.0 / 5.0
Room was comfortable and clean. Sinks water pressure was poor. Shower was fine. Had to change rooms since TV not working.walls very thin. Can hear conversations. Everything was quiet until the weekend when kids were screaming and playing in the hall. Parking was first come and very difficult to find a space. Breakfast was ok. Mainly cereal and bagels. Don’t think I would ever stat during busy season.

I paid for the hotel and it has been taken out of my account now they don’t have a record of our check-in so we are sort of screwed at the moment, sitting here in the lobby trying to figure out what to do
2.0 / 5.0
Great accessible beach location, but most rooms did not appear to have a beach view. Nice size room, with several restaurants within easy walking distance. The hotel is a reasonable driving time into Charleston.
The only negative was other guest were loud, slamming doors and appearing to stomp instead of walk through the central hallway.

Enjoyed the motel.close to restaurants and beach. very nice.

The hotel was in a great location, right on the beach and strip (shopping areas and restaurants). The only con: walls are thin. Could hear kids making noise throughout the night. Couldn't sleep!

It was a quick two night stay for a family getaway. The area was nice and the weather was even better!
1.0 / 5.0
The women working the front desk were kind, and that is truly the only positive thing I can say about my experience at this property. The room looked tidy enough, but upon further examination I found soap scum coating the tub and shower walls, there were a few sticky rings on different tabletop & counter surfaces, and the floor turned the bottom of my while socks a filthy blackish gray. The bedding felt like sleeping between sheets of cheap paper towels, and the mattress was the worst I’ve ever had to sleep on. The water that came from the sink and shower had a stench, as did the ice from the machine. The vending machines were out of everything, and only offered sugary sodas and energy drinks. An option to purchase water would have been nice, although I imagine they’d be sold out and unstocked as well. Luckily I only had to stay for a single night before joining the rest of my group at an Airbnb on the island.

The location is in a great location that is walking distance to all the amenities. The staff is very friendly. Overall the property and rooms are fine but just could use some TLC and a tad bit more attention to cleanliness. Despite this, I recommend the property and would stay here again.
2.5 / 5.0
The only complaint or negative mark I could possibly give would be on lack of parking. With that exception it was a 10 out of 10.
2.0 / 5.0
If you are on a hen weekend this is the perfect stay for you. Not for a couple who like the peace and quiet though. Property was ok but next to some loud bars although to be fair things seemed to close quite early. Beach was quite densely populated and this was out of season so suspect it is rammed any other time. Hotel was fine, breakfast was mediocre. service ok although had to yell at housekeeping to stop them coming in our room before we checked out! Won’t be coming back.
2.0 / 5.0
It's a good place. Convenient to the beach. A pretty small community, not a lot to do other than the beach. The rooms don't have windows facing out, only to the inside hallway
0.5 / 5.0
The staff at check in were beyond rude. Actually rolled her eyes at me and became confrontational. They don't like IHG members as it "isn't use friendly to the hotel staff user". The cleaning supplies/dirty linens/trash all left in the open area at all times. Tub didn't drain. Lobby smelled horrible at all times. Charges for parking in a gravel lot that's 2 blocks away.

I loved it. It was my first time staying there but it was amazing. I'll stay again

Room was on first floor where balcony opened to a full bar patio from the restaurant next door. Tables were literally on the other side of balcony rail and they said they would have live music playing until 10pm.
Stains on curtains, sheets and mirror.

We truly enjoyed our time at the palms. It was quiet and very convenient. We could walk to multiple restaurants and had wonderful beach access. The only part that I was a little bummed about was the continental breakfast. We will definitely stay again though!
2.5 / 5.0
Perfect hotel right on the beach. They offer rooms with no windows outside (listed as interior room I think) so just be careful when booking to make sure you book a room with outside windows. The bars and restaurants right next door are fantastic. 5 stars, will definitely be back!

This beach front property was worth the money. The staff were helpful, and the breakfast was reasonable. There were plenty of good restaurants in walking distance.

Well, first the parking was not thought through at all, the door going into the hotel room. You could not hardly get open the door going out to the balcony I could not even get open just needed a lot of TLC too high for that price point in that condition.
4.0 / 5.0
The property is conveniently located, easy to find, and does offer beach front access and a convenient outdoor bar but few other amenities. The king room was adequate and comfortable but not lavish. Very little parking on-site; most parking is in gravel lots across the street and behind other buildings.

In Isle of Palms for the weekend and stayed at the Palms. Very comfortable hotel close to everything in IOP. We will definitely look to stay here again in the future.

The stay was okay… it wasn’t a “bad place” but parking in Charleston is now owned by the city of Charleston right. So that would be good to know before staying in a room for longer than a day. You are going to definitely pay for parking over night and if it’s multiple nights that gets pretty dang expensive.

Great breakfast! The rooms are small and the bathrooms are so small that you have to close the door to move around. We were there during a tropical storm and the front desk clerk didn’t even upgrade us into an oceanfront room, when almost the whole place was vacant! And you have to pay for parking! Which is completely ridiculous! We’re not playing Monopoly here! But it felt like it! Beds are great and air conditioning is old and takes a day to cool the room… and it says your 3 minutes walking distance to the pier, which is close but you can’t even access the pier because it’s a private pier for their guests only and you have to have a code for the gate! We will not be staying here again!

Overall we enjoyed our time at the Palms. Check in was a little frustrating as we arrived just before shift change and received little information on where to park as the lot was full. When i finally parked and tried to get to the room our keys were not programmed. The “new” attendant at front desk was busy and left my family waiting on the street to get in the building. Eventually got in and once we got situated most things were ok. Ice machine was broken but found one on another floor. This was a hassle because my key wouldn’t let me get to another floor via elevator.

Staff rude and unhelpful. Awful unloading situation. Only 1 elevator.

Great location at a reasonable price. Bathroom Room decor & bedding were nice. Only negative was there was no hand/bar soap, which was a bit strange.
