The only thing that upset.me was the fact that i had to pay $100 deposit that i wasnt aware of. It was never mentioned by the ad or by hotels.com. i wouldnt have stayed there!!
Check-In staff were all excellent; very friendly and personable. Lobby area was clean and presentable. My room was very clean and comfortable. Housekeeping was attentive and friendly. My only negative was the condition of the elevator. It functions, but could use a refresh. I was somewhat disappointed that the continental breakfast was moved to the neighboring hotel. The other time I stayed here the breakfast was in this hotel and it was much nicer than next door. Not a big deal. I really like the location as I can walk to restaurants downtown. I would recommend this hotel to friends (but I would warn them about the elevator lol).
The bathroom door wouldn’t close, they were renovating an elevator and the other elevator was awful. The vending machines didn’t work so we couldn’t get any drinking water. The ice machine didn’t work. The breakfast that we were supposed to have access to at the hotel next door was completely void of food an hour before it was supposed to be over. The staff seemed friendly enough, but the hotel should be closed until the renovations are complete. And on more than just the elevator.
The first room I got the fire alarm in the room was chirping and just needed a battery. I asked and she moved me to a different room. The next room, the toilet didn’t work and wouldn’t flush. The best part was the bed and it being comfortable or I was just tired and any bed would have done the job.
Well its current name isn't Charleston Tower, it's Best Western. Currently no gym, no pool, no ice, and only one elevator works. Breakfast apparently included, if you walk to a different hotel. Room is clean, and superficially updated, but it's clear corners were cut wherever possible. It's remodel but a rather superficial and at times sloppy one. Just kind a weird, to be honest. Doesn't seem like anyone is actually staying here, given the 8 cars in the parking lot.

I believe the property is still fixing up the hotel as it was formally Best Westrrn…still need to work on the elevator because it looked condemned…there was homeless people outside the hotel and they need to work on security on controlling how they let the homeless people come up to the door…felt a little unsafe…the room was nice and the customer arrive was good
