A Perfect Stay

We enjoyed every facet of our stay. The reception experience we had with Brittany was professional and friendly. We also had a welcoming experience at the wine and cheese reception each afternoon. Valet parking staff were courteous and prompt. Our room was comfortable, clean, and quiet.

The API has a fabulous location near the Charleston Market. There are so many delicious restaurants all within a 20 minute walk that it’s hard to choose. Many historical sights too. I love to walk around a city when am visiting to get a feel for the local culture. The Andrew Pinckney Inn is perfectly situated to do it all.

A nice inn. Well kept and rooms clean. We arrived early and valet took our car and front desk said they would text us when room was ready. While walking about the city we received our text returned only to find that our room was not ready and was told it would be available shortly. They had text us in error So we waiting out side for another hour and a half!! Very upset that one of the girls wouldn’t have made an attempt to expedite our room. Instead they were very disinterested When we complained there was no attempt to accommodate us in any manner for the inconvenience. ( Move us to another room, comp valet??)Also they were not at capacity that evening. It was a Sunday nite. At checkout we were not given a receipt for our stay because we booked through a third party( Expedia ). Curious if that is why no extra effort was given to expedite our room error too.

Pass

Our experience at this hotel was disappointing from the start. The staff was rude and downright disrespectful, even to the point of insulting both my husband and me. There was no sense of hospitality or warmth. When we finally made it to our room after this unpleasant encounter, we found it to be just okay—nothing special. However, the plumbing left much to be desired. The toilet required jiggling the handle after every flush, and the tub, which was one of the reasons we booked the room, was not thoroughly cleaned. We had to clean it ourselves before using it. Additionally, getting hot water took over 20 minutes, and the spray handle on the tub seemed to need maintenance. The shower floor tiles also needed a deep cleaning, and hot water took just as long to reach the shower. Overall, I would not recommend staying here. For the same price—or even a little more—you can find accommodations where you’ll be treated with respect and enjoy better amenities, including functioning plumbing.
