Ok, but.....
My wife and I booked a room at the inn, #5 The Betty White room. Our first 24 hours we didn't have any hot water. The problem was taken care late afternoon second day. The inn is old but in good clean condition, however the floor, walls and ceiling are wood plank and you will hear every step your neighbor takes as well as their conversations. There are blinds on the windows but they do little to block out light. We bought cheap towels and blankets at Walmart to make it a little darker our second night. Very close to down town so everything is pretty much within walking distance. Parking is on the street.

The inn was tucked away just off the main drag of Folly beach but felt quiet and secluded regardless. I was able to easily walk to the convention center on the beach each morning. The staff was kind and welcoming and I loved the almost hostel feel of the common area with breakfast and drinks available. The room was small, cozy and comfortable. I would certainly stay again. A unique stay at the beach!

Very clean room - bit noisy (outside noise, bed noisy) - power outlets all used up, have to unplug something to charge phones etc. - bed mattress rolls you to outside of bed - great atmosphere and very friendly people.
