This was our third time staying here. We brought our dog with us on this trip and were disappointed in the way we were treated based on having her with us. We would not call this a dog friendly inn but rather a dog tolerant inn. There are several rules you have to be aware of when bringing your dog that are not disclosed beforehand. You have to enter and exit from the front and walk around the building and only eat on the patio during the breakfast hours if your dog is with you. Dogs are not allowed on any of the furniture, including the bed. We were put in one of the front rooms on the main floor. The room is big and spacious with comfortable seating. The bed was not very comfortable. There were stains on the rug and on the bench at the foot of the bed. The main issue with this room is you can hear everything, from road noise to guests and employees at all hours of night and day. We were woken up multiple times throughout the night from road noise and early in the morning from guests and employees. We spent one afternoon in the room to give our dog time to rest and the employees were very loud. I would not recommend staying in either of the first floor rooms. Overall, we would not return with our dog and there aren't enough amenities to warrant staying by ourselves.

Wonderful place to stay in the heart of Old Charleston! Everything was perfect during my 4-night stay, and the staff is attentive and accommodating. I couldn't have picked a better spot in my budget for my first trip to Charleston. I would definitely stay there again!
