Stay overall very good. Not the first time we've stayed at the tides and each stay we had good experience. Although this stay, Don't know why music by pool area was blaring at 7am Saturday morning which was very aggravating. Called the front desk and they turned the music off.

Folly beach is gorgeous. The hotel lobby is great. If you have a pet, it seems like a great hotel. The rooms are not well kept. The bathrooms are not well maintained, and we found a bedbug in our room which, impressively, did not seem to alarm the staff.

First and last time staying at Tides! Very noisy! Many inconveniences such as only 1 working elevator that was programmed to stop on every floor for several hours a day causing long delays getting to and from your room. No prior notice of parking lot getting resurfaced which cause parking issues, making getting around the property with your pet difficult, and the tar odor was horrible. The room looked clean but had been heavily deodorized which was concerning and affected our sinuses. The 2 stars are for location and friendliness of staff only!
