The hotel is very nice. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The rooms were super hot though. It was cold out so I think the heat was on in the building. We turned our A/C to the lowest possible setting but still felt like we were baking. Overall a nice place.

The staff was wonderful!! I felt very well taken care of. Valet was a great experience too, I called down 10 min before I would depart to have my car ready, they park them in a lift so it takes time. Also if you order room service, it adds a $20 delivery fee. That was something that was clearly stated on the menu, but I didn't realize that until I ordered, so heads up. Excellent sleeping quarters and very very convenient to all Charleston fun! Very happy with my stay!
