The room was poor. Not a single chair in the bedroom. Only one lamp in the bedroom, no mat in a very slick bath tub. $25/day to park one block away.You had to have their parking pass to get your car out so when you checked out and got your car, you then had to drive back to the Inn to return their pass.

It's location win our hearts. Eventhought the hotel itself pretty old and the loft style is not for everyone, but the bed is comfortable and we love the space. Definitely will be our hotel next time we're back in Charleston.

The staff was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the area. Enjoyed chatting with them. The room was very comfortable and the kitchen completely equipped for anything we might have wanted to whip up. But we chose to eat at a few of the many many tempting restaurants in walking distance. Definitely would stay here again.
