The 149-room La Quinta Inn
& Suites Myrtle Beach at 48th Avenue is a pet-friendly budget hotel near the beach. Standard Rooms have chain decor and come with flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers, and light-wood
furniture while Executive Rooms have perks such as mini-fridges, microwaves, and wet
bars. Parking, Wi-Fi, and hot breakfast are free and there's a seasonal pool, a small fitness room, and a big business center. While rooms are pleasant enough, there have been past complaints of noise in rooms, primarily emanating from the hallways.
Scene
Chain hotel with bright, friendly atmosphere but average decor
A friendly and upbeat atmosphere permeates La Quinta Inn & Suites Myrtle Beach at 48th Avenue, starting in the lobby, where there's free coffee, tea, and newspapers. The tile-floored space is decorated with potted
plants and there's a flat-screen TV. The breakfast area sits in a sunken area below the lobby and has red patterned carpeting, wooden tables, and large windows that let in natural
light. Another flat-screen TV hangs on the wall and the serving area has black countertops and a gray tile backsplash. All common areas
have low ceilings, which makes the spaces feel smaller than they are. The property has facilities for business travelers, but like most properties in the area, it's more squarely targeted at the Myrtle Beach vacationer market.
Location
On a busy street within walking distance of area attractions, shops, restaurants, and the beach
The La Quinta Inn & Suites Myrtle
Beach at 48th Avenue is on a busy street, within walking distance of plenty of restaurants along with local attractions, including the
beach, Pine Lakes Golf Course, and mini-golf at Treasure Island. Ripley’s Aquarium, Myrtlewood
Golf Club, and the Myrtle Beach Convention Center are all under a five-minute drive from the hotel, while the Tanger Outlets, Broadway at the Beach, and Myrtle Beach International
Airport take closer to 10 minutes. Barefoot Landing and House of Blues Myrtle Beach are 15-minutes from
the hotel by car.
Rooms
Plain, basic rooms with chain decor and air-conditioning, some with microwaves and mini-fridges
Rooms are basic and have air-conditioning and chain decor. Blue-and-cream patterned carpet coordinates with tan bed runners and
drapes and blue lamps add color to the spaces. Flat-screen TVs sit on light-wood dressers and there are blue couches
and armchairs in most units. The hotel's signature Simmons Bright Morning pillowtop beds receive mediocre reviews. Unlike Standard Rooms, which just come with coffeemakers, Executive Rooms have
microwaves, wet bars, and mini-fridges. Bathrooms are plain save for the cheery orange-and-white-striped shower
curtains and all come with hairdryers. Some units have double sinks. While rooms overall get positive reviews, some guests have complained of loud pet and hallway noise.
Features
Seasonal outdoor pool, fitness center, business facilities including free Wi-Fi, and free hot breakfast
La Quinta serves a free hot breakfast featuring waffles,
cereal, pastries, fruit, and coffee. A nice outdoor pool is open seasonally with tables, white
lounge chairs, and green umbrellas, but it is small. There's also a small fitness center with cardio and weight machines and a spacious business room with a computer, a printer, and tan and green couches. The
Bright Side Market includes a variety of snacks and drinks, and there is free
Wi-Fi and parking. Coin-operated laundry facilities are also available.
