Everything was wonderful except our room, 231, was beautiful but right above a bar that had loud music until 2am…the hotel should not rent that room out…we had to turn the tv up really loud and use earplugs to be able to sleep, but it was not restful sleep

We loved our stay and would recommend to friends and family. The rooms & ambience were delightful and brought you back in time to colonial Southern hospitality; the location was great to explore River street and historic district; & the managers reception was an unexpected experience. However, there was a daily restaurant credit & coupon that left us with a bad taste - we arrived at 11pm on day 1 and did not leave until late afternoon on day 3, and were unable to redeem day 1 or at the local restaurants for breakfast or lunch on day 3 which was disappointing. Overall we would come back!
