"We were driving through Charleston on our way back from High Point late at night and were exhausted, so we decided to book the first available hotel rather than continue driving. To our surprise, this turned out to be one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had! The hotel exceeded our expectations in every way, and I would happily stay here again. Five stars! Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
