Room was beautiful and extremely clean. Outside sitting area could use a rinsing off. You can easily hear people/sounds in the room next door. Internet connection for TV was inconsistent. Customer service was very responsive and helpful. Wonderful location. Overall, I would stay here again.

This boutique hotel was great. I got the largest room and it was huge!!!! Velour curtains over 2 huge windows. Great big bar with a microwave, sink and fridge. Shower had 2 shower heads, in case you wanted to bring a friend. I liked that theres no check in procedure. You get texts telling you your code to get in. All of this for the same price as a Holiday Inn. Id much rather stay in a boutique hotel. You know your money is going to a couple or a family, as opposed to some mega conglomeration. The texts were personal, not an autobot, but a real person. I am making this my new place to stay when i travel to Beaufort. I really enjoyed my stay.

The room was cozy, clean and the bed was comfortable. Lights next to the bed could use brighter bulbs. We did not get the room we booked; ie, which was pictured with ceiling beams.

First time staying at a self service property but I loved it. Skipping the front desk was actually nice and the representatives responded promptly with all my needs. This is my new go to place in Beaufort. Decor inside was well up to date and very clean.
