    The staff was very helpful

    I planned a last minute one night trip to tybee and found a decent room at Desoto. The staff was nice and helpful. The shared spaces seems well kept. The only issue I had was the cleanliness of the room. My initial inspection of the room revealed that they do not clean under the mattresses (crumbs, hair, etc. under mattress) and they did not clean the bathroom well (still had hair and used rags/soap from the previous tenant in the shower). I think the house keeping just changed the sheets and emptied the trash bins and called it a day. I would say it was a relatively nice room for a last minute trip and reasonably priced compared to other hotels, but... you get what you pay for. Regardless, if I pay 200+ for one night... I would at least expect the bathroom to LOOK clean and there not be filth under the mattresses. Overall decent hotel to stay at considering budget and time frame, but the house keeping needs a little work.

    Unfortunately the beach access was not available because of erosion on the way down to the beach but not any fault of the hotel. We had to access the beach a block down the road. Breakfast was above average but the coffee was good. I would rate 4 out of 5 for the price paid and amenities. Keep in mind, the Tybee Island is a tourist destination and will never be reasonably priced during tourist season.. still a good place to stay.

    But the main reason we went was a success. The Perseides meteor shower was awesome. :)

    Worst hotel I ever stayed at, I don’t recommend at all. Cleanliness was not apart of this hotel’s agenda at all. Grim , filth , dirt and visible dust built up on the air conditioning unit. They didn’t even try to clean the room. And have the nerve to charge over $300 a night. I hope this place goes out of business.

    Being just a short walk away from the beach. Parking was a nightmare. We drove a full size truck with 4 doors. The parking area is small and the parking spots seem smaller. Nearly each time we left and came back it was all We could do to squeeze into a parking spot.

    This was a very clean hotel and well maintained. The staff was very friendly and helpful. This hotel has free parking for their guests and it's right on the ocean. Their continental breakfasts were very good and lots to choose from.

    Great location - short walk to the beach, great swimming pool, and a block from a couple of fantastic restaurants! Room was clean, spacious and quiet. Staff was exceptional - especially Kirby? At the front desk. She gets our vote as Employee of the month! She was friendly, helpful and went way above and beyond.

    The staff were super nice. The water smelled very bad. Not enough water pressure to take a shower. Ten cable channels, nothing for kids to watch. Bad wall plugs, wouldn't hold the plugs in the wall. Was not happy, paid 630.00 for 2 nights. Would not go again.
