Liked: Staff & service
Just an overnight stay. The room was tiny, but that was fine. The water glasses in the room weren’t cleaned from the previous guest. Made us question how clean everything else was. Room had no refrigerator, which would have been nice to keep our drinks cold. Getting ice was a bit of work. Nice hotel overall. Staff was more than accommodating.
Clean, friendly staff, amazing art, however, the breakfast that is included is simply a bag that is hung on your door with fruit, croissants and muffins.

Clean room...the included daily snacks...the breakfast brought to your room/hung in a bag on the door that was also included
Great location and friendly staff with lots of small, special touches like cookies in the room and a breakfast basket in the morning. Would definitely stay again!!
What a great stay. We visit Charleston often as we are only a few hours away. I’ve been to the rooftop bar often but never stayed at the hotel. The service was fantastic. Champagne at arrival. Took our bags to our room while we parked hot cocoa after our walk and pastries delivered to our room the next morning. Rooms were nicely done and the art was cool and it was festive for the holiday. The only thing they could add was a mini fridge but the manager graciously put our leftovers in the fridge. Location is perfect 2 blocks to city market. Would stay again !
