Wonderful Hotel

The hotel is wonderful. All the staff is very friendly and helpful. The wine, cheese and cookies and milk is an awesome thing. Also breakfast delivered to your room is wonderful! Hotel was very clean. We used the bikes to get around the battery and the historical area. All the complimentary stuff offered is why I booked this hotel and we were not disappointed.

Great weekend get-away in Charleston. Hotel is in a great location and has great service. Breakfast is wonderful. I may be nitpicking here, but my wife and I found the bed too soft and a sore back is keeping me from top box score.

This Inn has an attention to detail aimed at making sure your stay is comfortable and the staff are willing to help in a friendly and respectful manner - they are simply outstanding at what they do. The reception, with champagne, morning breakfasts, evening wine and cheese - all exceeded our expectations. And the staff are customer focused and attentive but polite and professional with a willingness to help and serve seldom encountered in this world.
