Great boutique Hotel. Beautifully appointed. Well thought out rooms. Only thing I was left wanting was a luggage rack. Was greeted with a friendly smile and a welcome drink 🍷 upon check-in. I was very lucky and was upgraded for my 1 night stay to a balcony room. It was only 2nd floor and a city view. If I am again in Charleston I will stay here and request a top floor balcony with a view 😜 From robes and slippers, in room mini bar, turn down service with chocolates, lobby craft cocktail bar, even an included light breakfast So tell me not be for every business traveler. But it is definitely a stop for either a long weekend away or a romantic getaway for two. If the spa they were partnered with wasn't 10 minutes away I would have definitely wandered in for some pampering. Be amazing if it was accross the alley or even just a couple of converted rooms on-site! Overall great hotel. Very agreeable staff and amazing location.
