Staff is amazing and super helpful and friendly. Location is very central and very walkable. Parking is easy, was plentiful the weekend we visited. Beds were super comfortable, slept very soundly. The room was a bit dated, but quaint and again very comfortable bed. There was a dripping sound outside our window, we saw that the AC units dripped onto each other so there was nothing to be done about it during our stay, but whenever the room above us had it on, it dripped on our unit and made a sound - we had to use a white noise machine. We could also hear every noise in the hallway, including kids running up and down the hallway which was fine and didn't happen when we were sleeping but the walls seem thin. Overall good value for the location and friendly staff!!
Great hotel walking distance to restaurants and shopping. Breakfast was very nice for continental and the ladies at the front desk were so helpful and nice
The location of this place was great! Very close to everything. Within walking distance to public beach access and all the good restaurants! The Staff was great! The facilities are a little dated, but so what. Old school vibes!
My husband and I like everything about St. Simons Inn. We always stay here. The decor is charming. The staff are personable and welcoming. The location is perfect.

I always stay at this inn. I feel safe and secure. Staff is friendly and helpful. Rooms could use a bit of updating but its always clean and comfortable.
My stay was good. Room was very clean. The parking is tricky. Park on ground floor beneath the hotel. Vey tight parking. There was noises coming from pool area after pool closing hour of 10 pm which wasn't to bothersome. Walking distance to restaurants and the pier.
I had amazing time here. The staff was friendly and everything was in walking distance. This was my first time coming here. I really enjoyed myself and I will definitely be coming back
Last minute decision to visit Saint Simons Island for our anniversary. We didn’t get to stay long, but the accommodations were excellent and we enjoyed our time there. Would definitely stay there again.
Once I saw the build-up on my shower head, it was a little difficult to get comfortable about the cleanliness. I did bring it to their attention, they and I tried to clean it but it actually needed to be replaced. At some point, you have to replace stuff. Also, I didn't get my room cleaned, so my trash cans were never emptied. However, the inn overall was well maintained. When you have to tell your kids, don't wash your face in the shower, that's not a place you would stay at again. My shower head was full of grime! It was pretty gross.
