We had a queen suite which was very nice but in the back corner so no table and chairs out front like some of the other rooms had but overall, the room was very nice. Two bathrooms, a sitting area, etc. The manager was great and recommended some local restaurants. They give you free cookies and $6 credit at the coffee shop, but we forgot to get our coffee! A bummer maybe they will honor it the next time we are in Beaufort!

Nice convenient location to walk to dinner and around town. Also very close drive to the National Cemetery where we go to visit my Dad every year. A bit pricy for the hotel but we've enjoyed City Loft for a few years now on our annual visit to Beaufort.
