This hotel is on RT 17. It is handy to downtown Charleston, several decent restaurants and stores. Everything that we need on a five day vacation/school visit is at our fingertips and the price is reasonable.

Excellent place to stay!
We have stayed in this same hotel for 3 trips to Charleston. It has an excellent location with short trips to both downtown and Folly. The rooms are very spacious and extremely clean. We look forward to our next trip back.

Great Beds!!!
The Best Western Sweetgrass Inn is about 3 miles from downtown Charleston, SC. It is an older 2-story building that has some renovations but still shows its age. Breakfast is minimal but adequate. The best things about the hotel are the mattresses. They are new in 2013 and are great. We has the best sleep of the entire trip while staying at the Best Western Sweetgrass Inn.

Bessinger's BBQ is very close. The barbeque meats are outstanding. Unfortunately, the the rest of the fare is only average.

Nice hotel for one or two nights
Very Friendly staff, specially the lady that was in the breakfastlounge. Room was clean and beds were allright. We drove up to Charleston, parked the car near the vistors centre in the public parking garage and took the trolley ride.
