I didn’t feel safe driving in. Very small parking lot . Confusing layout, wasn’t sure where the lobby was. The room was rundown, small, and marginally clean. Lots of drunk loiterers in the parking area. The view out to Shem Creek was nice and we liked the boardwalk.

Great atmosphere! Walk anywhere! The restaurants and bars are located right in the parking block. Food is AMAZING at Water’s Edge! You can watch the boats come and go, paddlers and wildlife and listen to the live music from your balcony. Family atmosphere as well. So much to do and located right over the bridge from historic Charleston.

Thought a lot about writing a review, but as we know how much people plan for/look forward to a holiday & the cost we felt we should just so others are prepared and not disappointed! Positives: -The size of the room, decor and views over the Creek were all fabulous. Busy in the evenings & quiet in the mornings, when we saw dolphins & other wildlife. -Boardwalk is easily accessed from the hotel. -Good choice of restaurants on the Creek. -Pool was great. -Full sized fridge in room. -Breakfast was varied & good as takeout. Not so positive : -the room floor was very dirty(didn’t walk in bare feet because of it…not normally fussed) & the cupboards were also so dirty I had to wipe them out (also a first). -toilet rolls & replacement towels have to be collected from a cupboard at reception (again not a problem but very unusual for the price we paid), -cleaning the room was only after the 3rd day on request!!

This is a lodging for primarily young people who like noise. The bars next door and opposite play very loud music every day until after 10pm.Poolside there is music too, so when swimming you can hear up to four sets of different music at the same time- hardly restful. Breakfast is really just coffee and long life snacks, so not good. We stayed 6 days and had to ask for our beds to be changed mid stay, we were expected to make our own bed the other days. The room was never cleaned during our stay. The mainly young staff did not interact with us. It is a shame as the position on the creek is wonderful, with boats & the boardwalk. For the high cost it is not good value. Most people seem to stay just one or two nights.

It would have been a nicer stay if they weren't repairing the roof for our entire stay. We weren't informed of that until a couple days before arrival.

**Average Stay, Needs Improvement** I recently stayed at Shem Creek Inn and had an overall okay experience, but there were some significant downsides. While the location is fantastic with beautiful views of the creek, short driving distances to Charleston and the convenience of nearby good restaurants; the cleanliness of the room left much to be desired. The floors felt dirty and sandy, specially the bathroom floor, making the room feel less than inviting. It didn’t seem like they had been properly cleaned before our stay. On top of that, the air conditioning unit vent was full of dust, which caused some discomfort. The staff was friendly and accommodating, specially Nicole on our check-in time, she was very cordial, welcoming and friendly. I hope management takes more care and emphasis with room cleanliness in the future. For the price, I expected better attention to detail. Overall, we were okay with our stay.

Disappointed overall. The location is really the only thing we enjoyed. In room AC unit causes so much condensation that the floors were constantly wet. Service never came during our 3 night stay even though we had the please clean our room sign on our door and were gone all day each day. Finally just started going to find the maid cart and get towels. Even ran out of toilet paper. Ceiling had water damage and shower tiles had mildew. Our marsh view was mainly just a parking lot view. Again, location was good as we had an event to attend at Waters Edge but otherwise, accommodations are not up to par.
