Convenient We had a partial ocean view however there was a restaurant with outdoor seating right beneath our balcony which was opened from 10 in the morning to 11 at night. The lock on our balcony door was broken. Our refrigerator did not work so they brought a new one to our room.

Place was in shambles. My room had holes in the walls. There was air coming in through the front door so the weatherstripping was bad. Check in with the problem they didn’t have my room ready till about 4:20. Check out was unpleasant. Great location, good restaurants, right next-door to the hotel, beachfront access was nice. Parking sucked! If you didn’t get a parking spot underneath the hotel, you had to park in another lot, which was a bit of a walk.

We chose a room with a balcony facing the main road. We sat outside and enjoyed the view of people watching. I was pleasantly surprised by how clean everything was, considering it was a beachfront hotel. The walk to the beach was a short distance.

Pool was under construction and that was not told to us when we booked the room. Parking is limited and they offer offsite parking but the office didn’t provide us a pass when we checked in. She told us where to park but forgot to give us the pass.

My husband and I have been married for 13 years and have never taken a trip together without our children. This year we decided to sneak down to isle of palms and reset with just us. Everything was perfect, the hotel is a smaller “boutique style” place and we loved it. Not overcrowded, everything you need is within walking distance. Only 20 minutes or so from downtown Charleston. We ended up extending our stay 1 more night because we enjoyed it so much. Stephanie, the front desk employee was fantastic🙂 she was kind, helpful and went out of her way to accommodate us. (give that girl a raise)! we will definitely be back.
