It was an alright stay.
The top two floors were being renovated and the construction workers were right above us when they started working at 9am which was fine but we didn’t know about the construction until we went to get on the elevator and saw the note about it. After breakfast when we got in the elevator it smelled very heavy of paint thinner. We rented the room at this hotel because we had to be at the MUSC hospital early in the morning and didn’t want to drive that morning before the procedure. Overall it was fine for the night, but if we have to get another hotel room in Charleston we will probably go to a different hotel.

The lobby smelled bad, musty, dirty and cigarette smoke. There was a used bath towel hanging on the back of the bathroom door when we checked in. The room smelled bad. The carpet felt damp. The air conditioner never cooled the room so we did not sleep well.

We had our stay during construction (which we had not been informed of prior) and it was a bad experience. Very loud, which comes with construction. I spoke with the front desk about moving and we were fully accommodated! We moved 2 floors down and it was a wonderful stay. We have stayed here several times over the past year due to the proximity of the VA Hospital, and each time we had a wonderful stay. The staff were great, friendly and very accommodating. This just happened to be “one of those times “. We will continue to stay in the future as our needs require. Kudos for the entire staff.

Unfortunately, my room was right across the hall from laundry services and the ice machine. Lots of people wanted ice and it was loud. The bed is borderline ready for replacement. I could hear the coils. It was good enough to sleep on for a few days. Location was good for where I needed to be, and staff was friendly.

The staff is friendly and helpful. The price-to-quality ratio should be better. The breakfast is the same every morning, and the selection of food is basic. There are no vegetables for breakfast, just omelets, patties, baked goods, coffee, a few types of black tea, and juices. As for fruit, there were apples and a few bananas every morning. Basic cleanliness in the room is satisfactory, but nothing more than that. The nightstands and lamps on them haven’t been cleaned in a long time.
