Liked: Cleanliness
The hot water in the shower was limited at best. It also took 3 to 4 minutes before it would get up to the room. The hot water in the sink was nonexistent. I was not at all happy with the parking situation, as I have a heart condition and had to park two blocks away and carry my bags.

The room was very clean. Access to the pool was nice and the pool stayed open until 10 which was great! Parking was hard by to find close by! We left before breakfast was available because we had to catch the ferry to Fort Jackson.

Staff was friendly and accommodating to store bags before and after check-in/check-out. It was .8 mile from the Ferry, and 1.2 from Duval St. Most thibgs walkable if you are experienced in those distances. The Palms was great, great room, and pet friendly.

I'd give it 5 stars easily if our room wasn't next to pool which is VERY noisy! They also mounted the toilet directly up against the sink so you can barely sit on it. Breakfast was decent, but needs to start earlier in the morning. The room was VERY clean, had USB ports in the lamps & a mini fridge. The bed was super comfortable!
