My stay at this hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms, although spacious and well-furnished, lacked soundproofing making them quite loud day and night. The service, especially from Carrie and Benjamin, was exceptional and friendly across the board. The location proved to be convenient for exploring downtown Charleston, although the surrounding areas were not as picturesque. The dining options were satisfactory but nothing fancy.
