"The room was clean. Outdoor pool area is set up nice and gives people different spaces to relax. There is also 3.5 ft pool to take the little ones swimming. We did not purchase breakfast but had dinner at the bar two nights. The first night, I had chicken sandwich and smores martini. Very good. Second night, brussel sprout flatbeead. Not so good. I believe the kitchen closes at 9p. & bar closes at 10p. We stayed 2 nights, it is a good location for historic Charleston, Boones Hill Plantation and the beach.
