We loved this place! Room was clean and lovely, with a comfy bed and pull out and nice pots and pans. The location was great and the parking was a little terrifying to get my car in and out but if you’re not planning on driving around it was convenient. The hotel felt very safe and the staff was lovely.

This place was fantastic. It’s right near a busy and vibrant area. It had tall ceilings and anything you could need. The parking was strange at first but then it’s really cool. Self check in means no hassle and if you need anything they’re always quick to respond via text. 5 stars I’ll be sure to stay again the next time I’m in Charleston.

Extremely hard to find free parking around the parking lot. I don’t like the car carousel so that wasn’t an option for me! Other than that beautiful room when I stayed. Clean. Offers a Dyson hairdryer. Whole refrigerator. If there’s a sale, book it!
