Top Santee Boulders Hotel Reviews

Carlton Oaks Lodge, an Ascend Collection Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was spacious and clean. The staff were friendly. On the down side, our window overlooked a sandy area where people practice putting. The air condition started smelling like rotten eggs (sulfur) in the late evening. I called the front desk and was told that that was normal because of the water pumps outside. The front desk was locked around 10:15 am when I went to refill my water bottle and ask for hot water for tea, and there was a note saying it wouldn’t be opening until 11 AM, which was checkout time. Nonetheless, the room sufficed and the bed was comfortable."

"Great hotel, and will definitely go back. But their bistro which serves breakfast was closed when we went to get breakfast and it was closed for everyone. That means they lose a star."
