Big room, small wardrobe
Wonderful room. Fireplace nice touch. However, there was no closet space. One small wardrobe, not big enough to accommodate our clothes.

Disappointed
Prepaid booking but upon arrival, they tried to charge me for the entire balance again (not including the expected incidentals). Did not give me a room key, so when I couldn’t get into the room, I had to go back downstairs and ask for a key. The gentleman questioned me, saying he gave me a key. I assured him he did not. The following day, the room keys wouldn’t work. We playfully questioned if the hotel was haunted, to which the staff said, “yes, people say their items have moved to the other side of the room at night.” They also said, “that’s the price you pay for staying in Charleston.” Needless to say, we did an early check out and didn’t stay the second (paid for) night.

Short and sweet!
A quick turnaround, in and out of CHS, visiting the International African American Museum. The team was very accommodating, super friendly and helpful. Thank you! The location is very convenient and everything I wanted was within a 10-15 minute walking distance. I didn’t get to stay long enough to enjoy all the amenities of the Inn, but will definitely be back for a longer stay, the next time I’m in Charleston.

The front desk receptionist wasn’t very welcoming. No Southern Charm here. Didn’t tell us you had to request that your room is cleaned daily. When we did ask it was met with an attitude. The TVs only have a couple of channels. Couldn’t watch Sunday night football. Rooms are large and attractive but the need to add lamps. It’s extremely dark. I would pick a different hotel on my next trip.

Large, spacious rooms, super quiet.
The hotel itself is very well maintained and the rooms were extremely spacious and well appointed with high ceilings. Location is nice, right across from a major super market - but slightly outside of main downtown area (easy 7 min walk). A few things to mention: We found it odd that there was little activity in the main lobby - often times there was no one at the front desk or any other staff for that matter. There were also a couple nights we came in past midnight and again no one at the front desk, with open access through the main entrance. It was also eerily quiet, they could definitely use some light background music just to set some ambiance or mood. We didn’t use housekeeping for our entire stay so upon requesting toilet paper & coffee pods, we were asked to pick it up at the front desk ourselves which as a hotel guest was a first. Overall would recommend this hotel as we had a lovely stay.
