10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean and had ample seating, which I always appreciate. The staff was so helpful and kind and friendly. We took full advantage of the food services (continental breakfast, evening happy hour, and nighttime snacks) and even though it was so stinkin hot outside, we even enjoyed the courtyard. The location was fantastic, we could walk everywhere and there was on site parking (for a $28 fee) which was helpful since parking in Charleston is pretty tricky. I would highly recommend this hotel! A great value."
