"Excellent value. Old southern charm, but with emphasis on the old— our room was as clean as housekeeping could possibly make it, but the carpet had large stains, shower door can’t stay shut, paint on bathroom ceiling and parts of walls cracked and peeling. Tile missing on bathroom floor.
Brilliant location right in historic district because hotel is pretty much the historic anchor (former exclusive millionaires club built at end of 19th century).
Check in staff truly display Southern charm— gracious, efficient, and warmly welcoming. Valet not so much —leaned on desk and just looked at us; no smile, no greeting. Honestly wondered if we’d blundered and he was a guest we’d mistaken as part of hotel staff.
Valet or not, we would definitely stay again because it’s such an amazing value for money. Almost same rate as 3 star hotels and motels on island, but you get an enormous room with large windows, 14 foot ceilings and you are 1-5 minute walk from 90% of the historic sites."
