The day of check in (scheduled as 4pm) a member of the front desk staff called me at 1:30pm and asked if I was still coming to stay at the hotel. It was very odd. I have never had a hotel call before check in time and ask if I was still planning to come. It was very off-putting. Also, there was a constant smell of weed in our hallway. The cleaning staff was very polite and friendly and did a great job.

Stayed 3 nights! It’s an older hotel but they have maintained it really well and has the aesthetic that is older southern class! Maybe short staffed? Valet was a bit of a struggle just because they were swamped. Hotel pool was very clean. Not much seating and people come and put stuff down to save seats then don’t use them which is frustrating if the pool is something you’re wanting to enjoy. All that to say we would definitely stay again! Staff was super friendly

Absolutely beautiful hotel with a friendly and helpful staff. The location is great and the turndown service is a lovely touch. The rooftop pool is clean and the pool deck chairs are super comfortable. The view from the rooftop bar is stunning especially at night. Do yourself a favor and stay here!

Nice place in old Charleston

Extremely nice hotel, a little bit hard to find at first. The only thing I didn’t like was the $37 valet parking, but we were able to find places on the street and save some money. Rooftop swimming pool and bar was very nice, easy to walk to attractions nearby.

We loved this hotel. It was beautiful, having a very old world feel. There was a pretty big disappointment for me, as the pool closed due to chemical problems. This was my primary reason for choosing this hotel. This was an anniversary trip without kids and the hope of enjoying swimming without kids being all over me was would have been amazing. I had hoped to enjoy swimming and cocktails on the rooftop. There is little shade up there and a pool is very needed to get that experience. I would have appreciated a back up alternative, as I was informed there are day passes available at other pools but at 2:00 on the day we tried to go to the pool, it was too late. We had allocated 2 afternoons to pool time. The hotel did provide $100 per day credit but when you are really expecting a book in a place as hot as Charleston for the poolside experience, this was pretty disappointing.

Location was great. The bed was comfortable. The rooftop bar was nice. The suite we were "upgraded" to had no windows, a fridge and kitchenette area but no paper towels, cutlery or supplies of any kind. There was nothing provided in all the kitchen cupboards and drawers. Very few outlets near the only other mirror for getting ready. The lighting wasn't great in the room.
