"Absolutely one of my favorite winter discoveries!!"


Absolutely one of my favorite winter discoveries!! The place was affordable(in December) and ridiculously close to the ocean. Well appointed rooms that could use some TLC if you looked too close. The beds were clean and comfortable and the heater worked well. The bathroom was very clean. The staff I met were very friendly and helpful! I will definitely go back!

My wife and I received professional and courteous staff assistance from the front desk as well as the housekeeper. The rooms were very clean and neatly groomed, and the price was very affordable as well. We would recommend this place of business for your future adventures to this area.

"Perfect spot for us!"


The staff was so friendly! That’s always a win! The room was clean and super cute when we arrived. We were on the second floor and our view was awesome! This is one of the few places that allow dogs! Our French bulldog Dexter was able to join the family trip. One of the best things for this mom was the broom/dust pan I the room for our use. The beach came back to the room a few times! Great place!

For a, here we go vacation. We could not have found a better place. Not a pet person, so was worried about hair and smells like I’ve experienced before. As clean and fresh as you could ask. Ask about the stairs but well worth it!!

"The desk clerks were all very nice and helpful"


It's a small place, four floors high with only 36 rooms and no elevator, but it's clean, well maintained and fairly newly refurbished with comfortable beds and no carpeting which is good, as it sits right on the beach and all rooms overlook the ocean. A well cared for pool and pool deck are right there also overlooking the beach. The desk clerks were all very nice and helpful. There is a small store attached to the street side of the building and numerous restaurants nearby.

"Personable"


Hey y’all! I have stayed at Garden City Inn several times. Every time has been a pleasure. I’m a senior and a lot of guest fall in this category. Any one is welcome, young, old, canine and anything in between. I have to say- each experience was unique but with the same outcome. Satisfaction. The rooms are clean, the staff go out of their way to meet your needs and management are friendly and accommodating. You will not be disappointed with your stay.

"Great Place"


We loved our visit. The staff was friendly, the room was as close as you could get to the ocean, the parking was easy, the beds and pillows and shower were great. The toilet handle was very loose and there was a cup of water on the counter and some water stains on the ceiling, but such minor things for the great price, atmosphere, and convenience. The little store on site was perfect and I personally preferred no elevator. It's a hidden gem for anyone who doesn't need frills but likes the oceanfront, pool, and a small, quiet, safe hotel to relax in with your pet.

"This location was perfect; right on the beach."


This location was perfect; right on the beach. The pool was crystal clear, a variety of seating for shade or sun. The mattress and bedding appeared to be brand new and quite comfortable! The staff were very helpful especially Tiffany. Towels were plentiful and new. The kitchenette could have been stocked better, but we managed. There were pots and pans, spatula, paper coffee cups, 1 glass, 1 fork, small coffee maker and plenty of coffee grounds and sweeteners. Every person(staff and visitors) we spoke to was friendly and the atmosphere was happy and helpful. Oh, and the price? Excellent! Thank you.

"We loved this little hotel!"


We loved this little hotel! The staff was so friendly and helpful, especially Judy! Our room was on the 3rd floor and was recently renovated. The beds and pillows were comfortable. I don't understand why so many people are complaining about minor things. Sure they are understaffed right now. Every buisness is. But these people are busting their butts to get rooms cleaned! The hotel is SMACK DAB ON THE BEACH! The pool deck is wonderful. No, there is no elevator, but honestly, no big deal. The hotel is only 4 stories tall. We loved everything about our stay and will definitely see those gracious, friendly people again!

"Absolutely wonderful place to stay"


What an absolutely wonderful place to stay. We showed up in a big truck (as in an 18 wheeler without the trailer) and he made room for us to park it, then he gave us a ride down to the beachwear shop to get what we needed and came back and picked us up. I would recommend this quaint little facility to anyone who asks.

"Happy!!"


To be honest we had stopped eating at Fatz when they drastically changed their menu a while back. Thankfully they've brought back some of those items and we went back to relish in familiar foods. There's only one more thing they could do and that's bring back the Onyum burger, dads favorite. But he settles for the calabash shrimp platter until then. The staff has been friendly every visit so far and the restaurant is clean. Even with these times we're in we don't have fears of eating at Fatz.

We checked in late afternoon. The lady that checked us in was absolutely wonderful! So very kind and friendly! The room was great. Great price as well. Very clean and quiet! All rooms were oceanfront with a balcony, full size fridge, microwave, and coffeemaker. There was also a nice pool, covered gazebo with comfy couch and chairs, 2 large gas grills, dining tables around the pool area, and another seating area with couch and chairs. I would highly recommend this place!!
