The room was large and very clean. It had a nice bar area to spread out our belongings (food/toiletries/etc). The balcony was large with rocking chairs and a nice view. The pool and surrounding area were very clean and had great views of the marina and surrounding areas. They also provided a free shuttle servto the water front park area although you can also walk into the downtown area from sidewalks that run the entire way. Good place to stay for the price and proximity to downtown Charleston

location for what we where there to visit in Charleston was good. Courtyard snack bar behind the front desk should be upgraded. Bistro menu, food , service should be upgraded stay at current prices. Ridiculous to pay $32.00 for a full caesar salad and $6.00 for a prewrapped chocolate chip cookie. Just ridiculous. Parking should be $5-$7.00 per day based on how busy hotel is and having to park covered or uncovered parking.

They were spraying the parking lot and made things a little more difficult,and the fact that we had to pay 12$ a night to park my vehicle,especially with the prices that we had to pay per night, we won’t use Marriott again!
