Keys didn’t work when I got to the room. When I went back, they changed rooms which was okay. New room had no AC going so very warm. Took awhile to get cool. Not a very friendly check out staff. Probably won’t stay again.

Relaxing Stay

We stayed at this hotel for one week, from check in to check out was an excellent experience. Every single one of the staff we encountered were extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast was always timely, delicious and staff member cleaning up or helping guest as needed. The only thing that I say could be corrected was the door/card reader entrance to the pool area was not working all week and they ran out of bottled water in the shop area for over 3 days but always had complimentary water with fresh fruit available….along with fresh popcorn and cookies midafternoon. Keep up the good work!

Pros: On the Peninsula /downtown Nice Staff Cold A/C Adult canned beverages available in the lobby Has a pool Cons: -Front driveway scrapes car bottoms and then I had to warn every Uber driver. -Door to pool broken and was usually held open, sucking out the A/C for first floor hallway near rooms -Mold in bathroom -Crumbling stucco on bath walls -No bath fan/ventilation -Gross looking marks on walls and ceiling which could easily be cleaned or touched up w/paint -Very dirty knobs to bedside lamps as well as to exit door on 1st floor -Large stain on carpet near room bathroom. -I know it happens, but after a long day, we noticed a roach in the room around midnight and slept w/the lights on -I paid about $800 w/fees and taxes (including $15/night parking) for 3 nights for this and wish I could have spent that $$ elsewhere. I have pics & will upload if allowed.

We had some frustrating experiences at this hotel. The picture of the suite shows a two room suite, which is what we expected. When we arrived we were told that is only 1 room in the hotel and the other suites were just larger rooms which was very difficult with 2 young children. The receptionist was totally unhelpful in problem solving this or looking for adjoining rooms. Then the pool was closed for half our trip because it rained and rain apparently throws off the chemicals in the pool. Very disappointing as it seems to rain a lot in Charleston in the summer. If the parking lot fills up, the garage parking situation is tough. It adds about 10 minutes to every trip out. The room itself was clean and fairly updated. Breakfast was good. It is far from many of the tourist attractions compared to other hotels so given all the cons we would not stay again.

There was garbage piled up in the hallway by the elevators at check in at 5pm. There is a condemned building next door. There is a 15 dollar charge for parking, but there may not be a parking spot. There is black mold in the bathroom and a poorly repaired tub. The doors of the rooms and the bathroom looklike there was a flood on the 3rd floor and the whole place stunk like mold or trash as soon as you left the lobby. Never again.
