Bay View Resort - Myrtle Beach

Convenient location-walking distance to Boardwalk

Have to park across street--hard to load and unload car in crowded area--at the same time several others are trying to--only 3 elevators so check in and check out was hard to get on an elevator--

Good location, facilities were well maintained, except for the fact that in one of our rooms the ac was out when we entered and the bed which had been made earlier, had been messed up after the cleaning crew had cleaned the room. That was a bit disturbing...but they remade the bed and fixed the ac withing 20 - 90 mins after checking in. All polite staff and all were trying to be very helpful. Too few elevators cannot accomodate all the residents when they want to use them...they need about two more lifts...

Too few elevators to accomodate everyone in the hotel...

The staff was nice and if you needed anything they were right there to get it for you! The ocean front of the hotel is kept very clean and the sidewalks and grass were very clean. Beautiful backyard! Great pools for the kids. Nice walk way to the beach and downtown. I liked the fact that you had to wear a bracelet in the pool area to let them know you were a guest and it kept all the daytrip beach goers away because they came around several times a day to make sure if you were in the pool area you were a guest there!

The elevator! They really need to get new elevators. Half the time we were there we were waiting on an elevator and usually no one was in them they were just slow and when we arrived 2 out of the 3 were stuck between floors.

I enjoy the Star Bucks Coffee on property. I like being able to walk a short distant to the 2nd Avenue Peer Restaurant. The food (seafood, steaks,chicken) is good and it was not too crowded. We also were able to pick up some soveniers at the peer. This was all very convenient.

The elevators are slow and frequently break down. We have stayed at the Bay View for the past several years. We have experienced this problem each year. On our most recent trip we stayed on the nineteenth floor.You don't want to worry about the elevators not working when your room is on the nineteenth floor. There was no hot pad provided in the kitchen. I would consider that an essential in a furnished condo. On the bed I slept in the pillows had apparently been washed(which is a good thing)and were mishapen and not full size any longer. I certainly did not feel as if I were staying in a luxury suite.

great location

No outdoor pool and the indoor pool was small

I loved the location of this resort. My room was facing the ocean and my husband and I loved it. This place is great for a beach front get-away. I loved the service, the front desk, and the people helping with the bags. We definitely would stay again and have recommended it to others.

Nice big oceanfront room with full size kitchen. When you asked for something, such as towels, linens, the hotel delivered the items quickly. Great location. They let us check in early, which was a big plus. Nice having a Starbucks on site, too.

This hotel needs more elevators. When this hotel was developed the engineers did not figure in enough elevators. We were on the 9th floor and we had to wait a long time to get an elevator going down to the ground floor. It would pass us several times and we had to wait about 20 minutes to get on the elevator.

Rate and location was great - wonderful view - size of suite plenty roomy -

set up of bathroom was aggravating - the rails on balcony (2nd floor) were too high and in way of the view - elevator was a pain and walking the stairs wasn't easy for my daughter who was in a cast at the time -

I liked the way everything works there.

On the beach

Sofa bed mattress needs replaced. rooms not sound proof. rowdy guests heard outside our room throughout night unsupervised young children throughout the hotel

We had an Awesome time and the kids did not miss a single day of swimming in the pool. Very family oriented resort.

Everything was great, except for the double bed my husband and I slept on, it was uncomfortable for two grown adults, one of us ended up sleeping on the sofa bed in the living room. Did not realize we booked 2 double beds instead of 2 queen beds for the entire family. The resort was packed, so there was no chance of changing accommondation.

The amenities I'm the location. The room was nice and spacious. Hotel staff very friendly!! Would recommend to others. Not your typical ocean side hotel and a little pricey. Not for a budget seeker....

Checking in was a breeze. The traffic to the hotel is like a rush hour traffic jam. Very busy resort.

Comfortable, great view of the ocean, inside pools/jacuzzi etc., clean

My room lights wouldn't work, except 4 the bathroom light. Heat/ac controlled the other room. The elevators take forever to come, had to take the stairs most of the take.

Great spot on the beach/boardwalk and great price.

Slow and few elevators. Street side of hotel has some less than desireable hotels which draw less than desireable people. However, they werent a bother, though we werent out after 10pm.

I loved everything. This was my first time & i'll be staying there again. The staff was very helpful & very nice.

The only thing I did not like was the parking deck. It was a little too far for someone to walk back to the motel by them selves. I did not feel comfortable doing that.
