AC not able to keep room cool, meaning neither of us slept well for either of our nights. At checkout, didn't even ask about our stay. Once told about the AC, made no attempt to offer any accommodation or even address the issue other than to make a snotty comment. Luckily Charleston itself was nice. Will come back, but NOT HERE!

The employees are great and they make all of the difference! The hotel is still in a pretty bad neighborhood. We were able to park down the street in public parking near the bus depot. I am sure that if you could secure safe parking, or better valet parking, your guests would enjoy that very much! There are some safety issues on the street!
