“Inexpensive, but poor service and run down.”

Poor condition, run down. Walls in poor condition. Constantly dripping shower. Shower head about 5 or 5 1/2 feet above the tub floor so I had to duck to rinse. DIfficult to control the room temperature. They didn't clean the room, make the beds or give us new towels after the first night. When I asked for new towels, the clerk promised she'd bring them personally very shortly, but she didn't. The staff was friendly, but the hotel needs renovation and the staff needs to improve customer service.

“Great for College Students or folks on a budget”

The room was worn but clean. We felt safe in the neighborhood. The hotel was close to everything we wanted to do. It was quiet at night so sleeping was good. We could walk to the beach. I'd use it again.

“Great hotel in transition”

We went to the El Dorado in the off season and had a great time. Please keep in mind that this hotel was purchased from a former owner who let it go downhill. The current owner is making much needed upgrades. The rooms were nice and spacious, far beyond expectations for what we paid. We had two large queen size beds, a couch, the typical hotel bathroom, and a full kitchen with the following: oven/stove, microwave, full size refrigerator, sink, counter top, silverware and pots and pans. The air conditioner above the refrigerator was fairly effective. The WiFi connection worked fine. The most unusual thing about the room is that there are no clocks anywhere. We kept our cell phones with us, so this wasn't too big of a deal, but it was strange. The room could do with some better ventilation. The room was kind of musty smelling. We always carry air fresheners with us, and that resolved the issue. Additionally, the comforters had seen the end of their days and need replaced, along with the other room furniture. Finally, the shower head was a little too low for me (I'm over six feet tall), so it was a little awkward taking a shower at times. I see a lot of promise in this hotel and believe once the family works on updating some things in the room, it will be even better. Overall, I would recommend this hotel as a great cost saver if you can deal with a few inconveniences, it's a great way to save your money for what it was intended to be used for - having fun in Myrtle Beach!

“The worst hotel ever seen”

This hotel is a rip-off, I booked the hotel based on the picture from this site, the hotel looks much worst. I tried to cancel the reservation as soon as I've seen the hotel but the manager refused. The hotel smells disgusting, in the rooms is a strong smell of dust. It is noisy, all the night, I couldn't stay in this hotel I paid it and stayed to a hotel. This hotel doesn't look not even as a motel, which it is. Once again watch out for this rip off.

“Not impressed”

Room smelled very musty and everything needed an update. The price was reasonable and we weren't in the room much so it worked for us. It also was right across from the beacj so that was a plus.

“OWNERS were awesome! Very accommodating.”

The El Dorado is being renovated and the rooms that are done are realy nice. The indoor pool and hot tub were clean. The motel is across the street from the beach, so very easy access! While it is on Ocean Blvd amongst other motels, it is in a quiet area and not walking distance to restaurants and shopping. We took our dog, so we got a rm that had not been renovated yet. It was comfortable (nice beds, table and chairs, couch) and we had a kitchen (microwave,new full size fridge, and old but adequate stove/oven). free WIFI available upon request.

Traveler's tip
If you want to save money on meals, I like getting a rm w/a kitchen. We ate 2-3 meals a day in our room, bought the food at Walmart, and saved a fortune! Free WIFI was nice as we were down there to relocate (looking for work and housing)
