Tried it a year ago an again last weekend. My stay was better,Rooms was clean an nice, staff was very helpful 90% of outside was clean out front an sides,good location across from Waffle House. They said it a new owner now
Lived here for a while and it's been the best experience I've had. The whole stay I have been safe, there's been no nonsense or trouble, the owners and staff are very nice, and the ambiance is very calm and tranquil even. I can say I have no complaints about the Guest Inn and I will continue to stay knowing it's the nicest place I know.
The owner is super and very friendly guy. He helped us during the Hurricane Helene time. We visited this hotel few year back and now it’s completely changed new owner has done super job. This time our stay was pleasant. Some other motels were not even able to provide room at least he gave shelter during hurricane’s aftermath.
I like the young lady that work there she was very professional polite and helpful. It made my stay even better. There was some things in the room that I can tell we're not cleaned or dusted properly.
It's ok. The maid is awesome and works hard. They are going to remodel. Owners are very nice. They allow pets. They also are cleaning up everything and arranging everything and also have new bedding new towels wash clothes and hand towels. Looking forward to the remodeling to start.
This was not a pleasure trip. Our home was damaged by Hurricane Helene and we needed shelter. The guest inn had been shut down for 4 days and was doing the best they could to service people. Moe and his staff did a marvelous job working with what resources they had available. We stayed 3 nights and 4 days Thank you Guest Inn, Mr. Moe, and staff.
The staff and ownership is incredibly friendly and accommodating. I've traveled extensively and rarely encountered a place like this. I work remotely and it was just perfect for the past week I stayed here. The Management are some of the nicest people I've encountered on the road and that I've met in the state of SC. I definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for something affordable and comfortable. The rooms are very clean and I slept great in a soft bed the past week.
Wonderful place to stay' we spent a week at the Gust House while we were looking for a House to purchase in Aiken. Nice quiet location, away from the noise of traffic. Very restful. Enjoyed having access to the country club's pool, tennis courts and dining room. Wonderful Pub to have a drink at!
