Quality Inn & Suites Charleston - Civic Center

6/10 Okay

"It could be a really nice place to stay while visiting Charleston. However, there is a huge problem with the management. No one seemed to care about the quality of service- there was no coffee at breakfast, no bottled water, no utensils to eat what little was offered! The coffee filter in the room did not fit the machine and I was told to just shove it in to make it fit, we couldn't get the TV to work and we were told at the desk they knew nothing about it, no help.. I just couldn't help thinking how 1 or 2 really good employees would make a world of difference! Unfortunate!"

Embassy Suites Charleston

8/10 Good

"The hotel was really nice and the staff were very friendly! They had a pretty good variety of food for breakfast. It was nice to have lots of different options and they restocked it all very quickly. The pool was heated so it was pretty hot in there and it felt like you were in a hot tub rather than a pool. Also parking lot was down the street from the hotel, so we had to walk a little bit to get to the hotel/car. The only issue we had with the room was the AC. We had to call maintenance both days to fix it because the room was very hot and I had a baby with me who was getting very over heated. The maintenance guy was very nice and came very quick. It just sucked that it wasn’t steady working through out the day/night. Overall a very nice hotel and I would stay again."

Mardi Gras Casino & Resort

8/10 Good

"It was a decent room. Clean. Unfortunately there are not too many things in the bathroom to use. No hairdryer, no coffee pot, none of the things that were used to finding when we go to a hotel. However, we didn’t know this so we brought our own stuff. But I’m thinking what about these people that can’t carry along a coffee pot and essentials. You will find that to be so low and most of the hotels that you go to. I know they have a cafeteria downstairs coffee flows all the time. It’s just nice to be able to get up first thing in the morning and have a cup of coffee without having to get dressed and go down downstairs to get coffee. I have found, though it doesn’t stop the fact that people still come to the hotel and stay. So you deal with whatever there is to deal with don’t bring your own stuff be prepared."

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Charleston WV

10/10 Excellent

"I was hesitant walking in, but so pleasantly surprised. The room was perfect and cozy. The staff was accommodating. I would stay there again 😊. The city was a challenge to navigate with lots of construction so it was a nice restful place to stay."

Holiday Inn Express Charleston-Civic Center by IHG

8/10 Good

"Arrived after 11pm but clerk was very helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. USB ports are old and mostly damaged. Parts of room and bath felt like a renovation should be in the near future. Breakfast was good and filling. Thank you for service."

Wyndham Garden Cross Lanes Charleston

6/10 Okay

"The staff is amazing. The bar is small but well stocked with a friendly bartender. Considering the name included Wyndham, I was surprised how out of date it was. We saw many damaged doors, ripped and stained carpets. The showers are hot with good water pressure."
