Summary: I’d definitely stay here again. Booked it last minute and was able to get a pretty window view of the marina. Staff was very nice. Hotel was very clean and lobby smelled really nice. Wasn’t able to eat at the hotel or check out the rooftop lounge or pool since we were out all day and we missed the open hours. Hotel was close within driving distance. Parking $20 / day and you can go in and out and plenty of spots available. A lot affordable than hotels downtown that’s charging you $50/day and you have to walk far to the parking lot. A family member ended up getting admitted to the hospital so it was a 17 min walk to Roper Hospital. There’s a bridge pedestrian walkway along the water when you turn right and you can walk/run towards the battery. The gym is pretty large and we utilized it a lot. Machines and weights in good condition and they have a peloton bike too. They unfortunately don’t offer a shuttle to downtown but I would definitely stay here again. We had family staying in Foley Beach and James Island and we did touristy stuff downtown and at Mount Pleasant so we were right in the middle of those places. It was easy to hop on the highway and don’t have to navigate through downtown which was a pain.
