Nice property, staff is great, got a little load in the halls and outside at times but overall my stay was good and I most likely will be back because the price was good.

The room was very clean and comfortable. The down side was the other guests cooking with their doors open so the smell was in the hallways. We were there for 2 nights. The first night was fine but the second night around 1am there were young children running through the hallways making a lot of noise and slamming doors. We tried to call the front desk but no one answered.

Not a good experience
The hotel room did not have working ac/heater and I had to be moved to another room. The new room had roaches in the bathroom. Other guests were lounging in the hallways and were very loud.

The staff was friendly!! But the property was run down. When we got to the second floor it was a very strong odor of marijuana. When we got to the room it had a very funky smell. The bathroom desperately needs remodeling. We were looking to cook something but the kitchenware was dirty and nasty. Also we found two roaches in the bathroom. Never staying here again

Perfect
Everything was good. The only thing i was a little concerned about was housekeeping. They never came and cleaned the room the whole time i was here. Im not sure if they operate in a particular time because its an extended stay but i thought housekeeping was everyday at a hotel. Either way i enjoyed everything else.

Just a suggestion… You may look into taking a block of rooms and making them for no pets. The room I stayed in had a urine smell. It was like someone was trying to cover up a smell they could not remove.

This hotel was everything I needed it to be. Close to everything and wasn’t too far from downtown Charleston. The room was very clean and the kitchen was so fully equipped that we ended up cooking the whole time while on our mini vacation. Bed was very comfortable and restroom was perfect unlike most hotels. One or the other is horrible but not in this one. The staff were all very friendly people. Ms. Linda was so nice to help me get more ice for my room since the ice machine in my freezer was going to take awhile. She also gave me a list of things to see and do downtown and I was so happy about that. What’s better than google? Someone who’s actually from there!! There was a tall guy with locs cleaning the rooms each morning and he was very friendly too. Good staff made it a good stay. Last but not least the convenience of this hotel was phenomenal. Next door to the mall, Walmart, and many restaurants. All in all this was one of the best stays I’ve had in a very long time.
