    Many of the guests brought their dogs. Just be aware that this property has many guests with dogs.

    Good location. It was near enough to the historic area to get there quickly. It had free parking. Very clean and well maintained. Very friendly and efficient staff.

    Breakfast was not to my taste but my husband enjoyed it . Gym too small & pool a bit busy .

    Front desk staff are the best . Cosy place . Breakfast acceptable . Very good size studio room with very good cooking facilities. Gym : a tad small but better than nothing . Would recommend it for its location , size and front desk staff .

    Parking is an issue. Doors need some fitting. The room door was poorly hung and you had to be rough with it to open and especially close it.

    Friendly staff. Easy to find everything

    The room we were staying in 226 was very loud due to the fact that the air conditioner unit when it would kick off would made a loud boom. the balcony floor held water. The paint was peeling up very slippery.

    The staff was very friendly. It was very clean and a great location.

    Breakfast was good. I'm not really a breakfast food person so I'm not a good judge but I did enjoy the selection. There was a lady tending the buffet, I believe her name was Margaret. She was very friendly and helpful when we asked for suggestions on tourism.

    The room was dirty. I had to request housekeeping to come when I arrived - the stove was covered with cooked on food. I got some water on the floor in front of the bathroom sink, when I wiped it up, the paper towel was filthy. The hard floors obviously weren't mopped correctly before I checked in. The kitchen was poorly equipped for cooking. There was only one semi-sharp knife, the style and size of a bread knife. No smaller prep knife. There were two pots/pans, so horrible stained and burned, they were too unappetizing to use. I had a pizza to bake, but I found no baking sheet or pan. I had to go to the kitchen and fortunately they were able to give me some foil that served the purpose. There is a kitchen table and chairs that I was unable to use. The chairs have a very short back that doesn't even come up to the waist. The seats aren't high enough to comfortably reach the table to place your arms on to eat. Without a proper back to grab, the chairs are very difficult to move. You have to bend over and pick them up. I had to eat sitting on the couch using a tiny snack table.

    The breakfast was good, always several options. I really would have preferred to have the waffle available every morning. In the evenings they always had some hot food available: meatballs, baked beans and mashed potatoes; spaghetti with meat sauce and corn on the cobb, etc. Beds were comfortable. The location was excellent for where I had to go every day. Staff was friendly and helpful.

    Reported small insects in room but nothing apparently was done about it. They continued throughout stay.

    Location was convenient to MUSC Surgery Center. Especially impressed with: First day had emergency cut on palm of hand and the janitor was most helpful in cleaning and bandaging using first aid kit at office before I drove to Access Urgent Care for stitches. During stay he compassionately inquired about my injury and my husband’s surgery recovery.

    The only thing that could have been better about the room is the bathroom it could really use some remodeling.

    I really like the staff they were very friendly and helpful and really nice. And the room was nice as well, and I really liked the balcony.

    The sofa bed in a room for two adults (I was with my mother) had only one thin blanket and a pillow. It was like sleeping with a rag. However, the bed was had a duvet and was very comfortable for my mother.

    Location, Ease of parking, Breakfast and outdoor heated swimming pool. It was overall great value for money.

    The location was great, close to downtown Charleston, but in a quiet area. It was a block from a greenspace running trail which was really nice. There was plenty of parking a good restaurants and a great grocery store within a short drive. Breakfast was good.
