Nice place to stay! I would get a room

Everything was great besides the room we was connected to called when we was going through a family emergency and just getting good news from MUSC no tv no radio on just happiness and they ruined the moment but staff was nice enough to just let us know we enjoyed our stay and the staff was kind...would stay again.

Great staff

We had to stay in Charleston because of a medical emergency and the staff were so kind and helpful. We had to extend our stay twice and they allowed us to remain in the same rooms for over 10 days. I will always be grateful for their kindness to us during this horrible time.

Love your working cat employee!

Little bit dated. Outside halls with only stairs to upper levels. Clean. Decent but not exciting hotel breakfast. Best feature was the friendly outside rescue cat. (Ear tipped.)

My new favorite hotel!

I will DEFINITELY be coming back! Location, location! Only 10 miles to the beach, easy drive. Close to lots of restaurants, grocery stores, etc. The staff goes above and beyond, I was very impressed! So friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious! I was, however, disappointed that the pool was not open. Other that, I highly recommend and WILL BE BACK.
Double beds, ohhh, so soft! Clean, soft linens!
The biggest Smart TV I’ve seen in a hotel.

I stayed a week at the property and it was a great experience. Staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was convenient and good for going off to work early in the morning. Convenient location to dining and where I needed to go. Also, the laundry area was well worth it too. I would definitely stay again
