We totally lucked out with this stay - the property overall was great as was the staff. Rooms were amply sized and well furnished, housekeeping was on their game each day, and the lobby and rooftop were great spots to grab a drink and enjoy some people watching. We would definitely stay here again. One caveat: it’s well located downtown, so expect some bachelorette parties returning from a night out at 2 am.

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.

Liked: Cleanliness
this was a lovely hotel in an absolutely perfect location… Some things were sort of dated, but the staff was very friendly… The front desk staff was not very informed but they were very nice… The concierge was never there… The maid/housekeeping staff was absolutely lovely and a throwback to a bike era The food up on the roof deck was mediocre… But the setting very nice. I didn’t eat in the restaurant or drink at the bar.

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!
