I see most of these reviews are from years ago or from people who have only ever stayed in the "family-size" suites. SPOILER ALERT: the rooms are effing tiny, like small to where they're trying to pander to the weird, hipster niche crowd who are into that tiny house garbage. The beds are cheap mattresses on creaky metal frames, there's nowhere to store anything and the sinks will run over due to being paired with a comparatively large faucet. And they have the gall to charge over a hundred dollars a night during the off-season?

The location was exactly what we were looking for and we were very pleased that it didn’t have any type of bugs, but the room was not very clean and the bathroom was a little too snug. If I was a large person I would have been extremely uncomfortable staying here. For the price it was our best option and overall it was ok despite the compromises on cleanliness and size.It is a motel so we were expecting it to be smaller, but other than the bathroom setup the rest of the room wasn’t a bad size. To use the toilet you have to sit with your feet in the shower, and to shower the door has to stay open because there is not enough room to change or dry off. The door wouldn’t stay shut anyway because it needed trimmed to fit the threshold. If you are a bigger person, I’d probably recommend looking elsewhere - unless you don’t plan on using the bathroom or showering.As for cleanliness the room had a few dings and tiny stains. The floor was gross and the shower wasn’t the cleanest. I made sure to wear sandals the whole time we were there (especially in the shower). The shower curtain had terrible stains all over, particularly along the bottom and in some spots there was mold.Safety: Didn’t really have to worry - we stayed during the offseason (mid October). We were the only ones there most of the weekend. I thought it was more convenient and safer that they had individual door codes instead of key cards/key entries.

Check in was very easy, Sent and email and then a text to confirm our room and a pass code for the door as it's keyless entry.We were in room 20 1st room bottom floor near the office. King size bed, sheets had some minor stains on them but stains none the less. The bathroom was small but doable, my only real reason for 3 stars is the sheets and our bathroom curtain had mold/mildew on it.No bugs or creepy crawlies, smelled clean and was quite cozy and tidy. Not a noisy area and close to everything on Tybee including the beach.Stayed Sat-Tues and Overall me and my wife were happy especially for the price we really can't complain. Could be a few things to keep up on and this place would be 5 stars no problem.Rooms: This is an older family run motel on the lower end of the price spectrum in the area, that being said we were comfy and felt safe.Iron/Ironing boardKitchenette (Microwave, Small refrigerator, K-Cup Coffee maker)Minimal clothing storageTV with basic local cable

Charming little no frills retro motel with the easiest check in. They just texted us the code and we went straight in. Walking distance from the beach. Affordable and adorable. We will be returning.

My friends and I stayed at the Royal Island looking for a room for the night. We met a lady that is local and she recommended several places to stay and this motel was one of them. We went back to see if there was anything available for the night and lucky for us.. there was a room open. The ladies at the front desk were so friendly and wonderful to work with, and our room was sooo cute! Great location - 5 minute walk to the beach and 5 minute drive to shopping area and places to eat!!After checking out, we all felt like we’ve lived there our entireHIGHLY RECOMMEND- definitely a 5⭐️Rooms: LOVED THE RETRO VIBES!!!Nearby activities: Shopping center 5 minutes from you!Safety: Never had to worry about anything!Walkability: Easy access to everything! Crosswalks everywhere!Food & drinks: Several great restaurants there! 5 minutes from where you are!

I'm pretty dissapointed in learning this place has such great reviews yet I can't seem to relate to any of them. The service was nice but the cleanliness of the room itself was nasty. On first glance, it's all neat and tidy but the more I looked and walked around I wanted to leave. The couch has random stains and when I pulled out the mattress in it, there seemed to be blood or cigarette stains on it. There was also a handful of crumbs on and IN the mattress itself. The fridge had a weird smell emitting from it, the bathroom door didn't close, and the shower also had mystery stains on the tile.

This was our first time to the area, we found this hotel on Google. I was sceptical at first based on the type and age of motel, I would normally pick a recognized brand of hotel to stay. However we were VERY happy with this place, we'd definitely stay again! The thing we enjoyed most about the entire island is that there is no "name brand" anything on the island. All restaurants and hotel/motels are locally owned small businesses, this place is no different. This is a small, old school motel. I'm guessing it was built in the 50s. It's clean and comfortable, service is AWESOME! Be aware that the rooms are small, but they were nice. It felt like a blast from the past to me, really enjoyed our stay both here and the entire island. We didn't use the outdoor pool but it looked very nice and clean. It's a fun place!Nearby activities: Beach and a ton of fun shops and restaurants. A laid back fun place.Walkability: You could walk most anywhere on the island. Beach is 5 minutes or less.

The room was clean. The only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars is the room was really small. Bathroom sink was tiny. No room to really put anything.

I really enjoyed staying. The room was fresh and tidy, and clean. The beds were really comfortable and all the linens and towels were clean and fluffy. Thanks for a great stay near a childhood home!

We stayed here after going through multiple searches on VRBO/AirBnb, and not finding anything reasonably priced.When your room is ready they send a code for your room via text. They’ll call you and verify you received the text. We had no problems at all with communication with staff, and both ladies we spoke with were very nice and accommodating to whatever we needed!Rooms are super cute and updated to a retro vibe. We stayed in two separate rooms during our stay due to adding an extra night. Only negative about the rooms we noticed were the large gaps around the main door (both rooms), like they needed to be resealed.Parking lot is TIGHT. If you have a big car you’ll have to back out of the spot to allow your passengers to get in and out.I would definitely stay here again if we came to Tybee!
