The room was clean and roomy. Balcony views are beautiful and the proximity to so many amazing restaurants and bars make this the place to be. 10-15 minutes to all the downtown Charleston sights. Watersedge and Muddys are hopping every night with live entertainment. Another memorable stay at Shem Creek Inn. Thanks

Initial housekeeping issue and had to change rooms. They were accommodating. You hear every footstep in the room above you. Parking lot is a disaster. Pot holes and king tides flooded the road. Nice ambiance and location in Shem Creek. Weather was poor so didn’t use pool or deck but looked nice. Breakfast only if you’re desperate for free.

It’s rare to come across a unicorn, but this hotel definitely was one! Everything I wanted to do was either within walking distance or a quick drive away. Shem Creek Park and all of its bridges and walkways was right behind the hotel. An array of delightful, unique restaurants were right across the creek and easily within walking distance. My balcony overlooked the pool, the creek, and the restaurant nightlife. It was so colorful and interesting! I walked right down the dock and boarded a boat for a Charleston Harbor cruise at sunset. My room had every possible amenity I needed. The refrigerator was surprisingly large, too! Patriots Point is right around the corner as is the Pitt Street bridge. Such a neat area. Five gold stars for such a fabulous experience!
