All of the workers at BW Seaside Inn were very friendly. The hotel was in a great location for walking to the stores and the waterfront. The room was nice and clean and had a great shower. Breakfast was good, especially the scones which are made in house. We didn't use the pool, but it looked nice.

This is a great hotel in an ideal location. The staff are so friendly and accomodating. They saw we had our bicycles and volunteered to keep them locked safely in their facility both nights. They already had our bikes waiting for us in their lobby area the morning we checked out! Breakfast (eggs, sausage, potatoes) in the morning was fresh & good. The pool area and equipment was clean. Everything on this property is well kept and well managed. We definitely will stay again when visiting Beaufort.

The breakfast was ery good. BW provided a good selection of breakfast foods and fruits. An added bonus was home baked cinnamon rolls, cookies at the front desk and other such treats. Understaffing did not allow for full service in guest rooms. We stayed 3 nights and had trash emptied in one occasion. Fresh towels were provided. All personnel were professional and pleasant ...always willing to be of service.
