It was a short stay 1-2 days. The staff was very helpful, pleasant. Avis, Jerry, Trenton, and the kitchen breakfast staff are the best. You ask for something they did their best. The room Was clean and nice. But the shower tub was small, rounded, and tight at the bottom, which made it hard to stand and unsafe, very slippery, and also had no shelf to place your soap or shampoo. Also, the exhaust in the bathroom was dirty and didn't work. But overall a good stay, free parking and free decent breakfast.

We recently stayed here (2 suites with several family members for a short weekend vacation), and overall had a very nice time. Free onsite parking with a short Uber ride to downtown. Carpets in the rooms definitely need to be cleaned though - when I took my shoes off the carpet floor felt sticky (rooms 211 and 216). Nice outdoor pool, fun for the kids. The gentleman at the front desk was very kind and helpful, as was the lady at the breakfast area. Breakfast was pretty good but waffle maker is way, way outdated and really makes sub-par waffles which are not crispy at all - please do everyone a favor and invest in a new waffle maker Thanks a lot.

Great hotel, and an amazing value better than the hotel and the value is an associate that goes by the name of Trinton Porter. He genuinely embodies the spirit to serve and made all the difference this morning when I woke up at 5 o’clock, had no coffee in my room. I went down to the front desk and Trinton Took the matters into his own hand and solve the problem by finding an unoccupied room and Using the coffee maker, surprised and delighted me with two fresh brewed cups of coffee. Thank you, Trinton for going above and beyond to ensure the genuine care and comfort of your guests, you made a big difference as I was in a major car accident on way to hotel and couldn’t sleep. Thank you

I was worried about staying here after reading reviews but completely disagree! It was super clean- spotless! It even smelled fresh and clean throughout! We would definitely stay here again.

We stayed in early September. It was wonderful, as always. Dominique at the Front Desk was especially helpful regarding hotel services, and restaurant and sites suggestions. She has a terrific personality.

This hostel has good clean rooms in a two story elevator hotel. Check in was efficient and professional. Free on-site parking is helpful. Close proximity to downtown Charleston was nice too. Breakfast was understaffed for the number of guests the day in was there. Definitely recommend a car if staying at this hotel. I wasn't there long enough comment on the kitchen appliances or wares.

This hotel was perfect for us because it’s pet friendly. We booked last minute, and the staff still made it easy and accommodated us without any hassle. The studio was exactly what we needed, the bed was very comfortable, Free breakfast

I let the property know of my plans to propose to my girlfriend prior to arrival. The staff went above and beyond to upgrade our room, consistently check accommodations, provide a more than welcoming atmosphere, and importantly, maintain the element of surprise. Ted is a shining example of what a property manager should be. His kindness and hospitality is clearly a standard set for the team at this property and a steadfast reminder of why I am a Titanium Elite Member. As we have returned home, I find myself recapping the incredible hotel stay more than some of the events of our trip. Should we ever return to Charleston, (and we will) we will be staying at this property hands down. Cheers to Ted and the entire staff for making such a incredible stay and for all that you have done to make our engagement special!
