6/10 Good

Pros: Great location in Charleston within walking distances to all the major downtown spots. Updated hotel. Loved the coffee shop. Cons: not the cleanest room, beds were alright, but I’ve definitely had better in more affordable hotels. A lot of extra fees added on at the end of our stay, basically have to use valet if you have a car.

Charleston - Southern Charm with a modern twist
A great hotel with access to food, history, and shopping all within walking distance. Every staff member I interacted with was kind, and friendly, and went out of their way to make sure I was taken care of. Wonderful vibe to the hotel.
Greg, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

Average accommodations. The best part of the hotel is merely the location otherwise very average hotel. Loud music plays all night at the bar downstairs. Desk staff not very helpful. Valet were the most competent staffers. Hotel charges a daily “amenities” fee for rentable bikes, the hotel restaurant and bar even if you use none of the “amenities.” Would stay somewhere else the next time we are in town.

Not worth it.
If you're going for the pool, it's great, otherwise the room had a view of a brick wall and the HVAC was so loud. The fitness center was at a hotel down the street. The resort fee or whatever was highway robbery.

Clean, good location, lots of bass
Hotel was clean and location was good. My room was facing the pool/patio area and my room sounded like a nightclub until 11PM every night. It was not relaxing or comfortable.

6/10 Good

Mediocre hotel at best
Mediocre hotel, they charged an amenity fee for what amenities I have no idea, no coffee maker or kettle in the room or fridge for that matter, or complementary bottles of water. With that being said, they don’t even sell bottled water in the hotel. Then there’s some straw mat around the bed. There are little hair fibers that shed from it and get everywhere and cling to your clothes or anything that touches, for that matter. And finally, the website said there is a gym here, but that was NOT the case. The gym is located in another hotel that is a 5-min walk away, so there is ONE small hotel gym for TWO hotels. Good luck trying to get a decent workout in. Overall, the only good thing was the location.
