James Island, Charleston hotel rooms at the Destination Hotels

"The Francis Marion is a lovely old nostalgic hotel. The location is fantastic. I would suggest upgrading to a bigger room. The rooms seem to be a worn. I think back in the day it was probably a very luxurious hotel. I think the bathrooms could be updated. I think most of the Queen bed rooms were cut in half to make way for more rooms. However the lobby , restaurant , Spa and Exercise room are nice considering the hotel is older. I think with a little bit more renovations it would be the bell of the ball because of it's great location. I woul definitely stay there again. "

"Beds were very comfortable and staff was great "

"I've stayed at this property twice and despite it being a few years, I thought it was a safe bet to book again. I was wrong. I did not change the booking because I arrived very late at night and was extremely tired. I was so uncomfortable, I didn't stay for the entirety of my trip. What I'd come to expect from Courtyard Marriott-and from this specific property-was not met this time around. I requested a new room because upon pulling out the sofa bed I observed extremely soiled sheets and a previous guest's clothing. I was given a new room and the hallway had a soiled towel in the floor and an unpleasant smell. The following day I attempted to order something from the bistro. I waited for several minutes at the counter without any assistance. I could hear people in the kitchen area talking and laughing, but they never came out. Additionally, there were two workers at the front desk who never offered to have someone assist me. It's truly disappointing. "

"Room was nice. View wasn't the best but that's not a big deal but initially when we stepped in the room it smelled heavily of bleach however it could be worse. Staff was helpful and friendly. Pricing of room was good. "

"This hotel is set up well for the beach. We had a great time. My only pseudo complaint was an elevator was out and we had to climb the stairs most of the time because the remaining elevator had a really long wait. But other than that it was great. Very helpful staff which really stuck out. "
