Short walk from hotel
You can walk and do anything from the hotel and the people at the desk are very helpful. The manager is very friendly and was very helpful to our husbands - she found a golf course and booked them a tee time.

Only needs one thing.
The hotel was awesome! Great location, close to everything. Clean, comfortable rooms. And had a fridge, which is super important as Charleston at this time of year is boiling hot and humid. We kept it stocked with bottles of water and gatorade. The only thing the room needed was a microwave to reheat leftovers from the spectacular restaurants. I would highly recommend this hotel to others.

Traveling with 2 yo
Satisfying stay!
Had fridge problem on first night, but were quick to replace it. Location is ideal, just across the street from Fig, best restaurant for nightime dining and across the street from Jestine's, best for breakfast and lunch. Rooms and beds are not big, but even the finest in Charleston are rather small due to not being allowed to tear down old buildings for rennovations. You won't be disappointed. The staff is friendly, professional and accomodating. Everthing was cl3ean and the bathrooms were especially large and well appointed.
