Very average to below average property for the price. Location was incredibly walkable and close to a lot of local attractions and restaurants, which was the biggest plus. Check-in was a pain, room carpeting was very stained, curtain falling off the track, loud staff and guests early in the morning, HVAC initially wasn't working (maintenance fixed upon complaint). Their systems weren't working at checkout either. Management did come up to check that A/C was working on Day 2 and offered a round of drinks for our troubles, which was a nice gesture.

The hotel was fabulous. Would have been nice to have some appetizer options at the bar. Lots of construction in the immediate area, but the hotel was very quiet during the night.

Great property. Recently updated & still seems to be working out a few kinks, but the staff was super attentive and fixed everything promptly. Rooms are a bit cramped, but with nice amenities. A bit "too" much furniture in them, but with a little rearranging you can make it work. Lovely lounge, fresh continental breakfast and friendly bartenders. The espresso martini IS, in fact, all it's cracked up to be.

Great Charleston weekend getaway. This hotel is in the perfect location. I definitely will return. The parking is a little pricey, that’s my only negative.

The service was lacking. The price was ridiculous for what you get. There was no seating in the room except for the bed. The shower curtain was not practical as everything in the bathroom got wet. There was loud music playing all night.

Parking for the hotel was valet only. Smaller the vehicle the better-small SUV max sixze. I had a full size truck, which I was not comfortable with using valet service. Cost of valet was also pricey.Instead, a public parking garage was close enough (next door) to use, and almost 1/3 daily price of valet.
