This little gem of a place is tucked right into a perfect area of downtown Charleston. Ten steps from King Street, right across from the pottery barn and lots of other great stores. We are local and I took my daughter for a night downtown to see the fireworks. We had so much fun. Our room was a full one bedroom apartment, complete with kitchen and washer/dryer. My daughter said she wants to live there. So neat and clean and comfortable. I also picked up a few decorating ideas from the hotel. The tile in our bathroom was super cute. We've stayed downtown quite a few times and this was our favorite by far.

It was a very nice hotel room. Fully equipped and very well decorated and clean. Easy in and out. Valet was great. Best shower. Includes amenities but not the most convenient, free gym but it's down the street and the free breakfast is coffee, yogurt, breakfast pastries and waffles. Good but not traditional breakfast for any carb consciousness.
