Nothing fancy, but comfortable and great location.
Great location! Within a short walk of beach, lighthouse, and many shops and restaurants. There is nothing fancy about this hotel, but it is comfortable.
Good stay. Just had one incident with someone taking a fall on the sidewalk a few feet from the pool (other side of fence) because there was a place cut out there that had not been filled in. That was tragic as it was near the end of the trip and we had to get some first aid items to wrap the ankle. Hope action is taken. It was reported.
Ocean Inn is in a great location for access to all that St. Simon’s has to offer. Our room was spacious with a great view. While very comfortable, decor and fixtures could use updating for a more current and functional look.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Hotel is in the perfect area. Lots to do within walking distance. Pool was good. Room was dated and definitely needed some love but it was fine for a weekend.
Rooms had an old charm, location was excellent, staff very friendly. The breakfast bar could do with another waffle iron as the line tends to get long but overall great experience
All was great, except there was never anyone at the front desk to check in or out at our stay. Had to wait 15 mins for someone to come front desk to check in. Was not anyone at front desk when tried to check out, so left my key on the desk and left.
It is in a great location within easy walking distance of many attractions. While the facility was very clean, it is beginning to show its age with some repairs apparently underway? Also our television would not come on without getting assistance from the front desk. Also the coffee maker was not working on several occasions.
Hotel is outdated, dirt in the floor, poor television functionality, no coffee in rooms, sheets are too small for the bed, continental breakfast was inadequate, and parking was limited to small vehicles. Was my first and last time staying there.
