Excellent location!
The hotel is old but the location is perfect: one block away from King Street and one block away from the Charleston Visitor Center. The room carpet needs to be replaced.

Joe's apartment
Beautiful historic building with so much potential to be something great. Sadly, it's very dirty, carpets are stained, walls have mold and tub would not drain even after we requested maintenance. Final straw was finding 3 live German cockroaches on our last night. Needless to say we checked out 2:30 am because the room was clearly infested. Disgusting!

Do not stay here
Hotel is very old and seriously outdated. Not the cleanest. Broken Furniture in room. For the value, it was severely over priced. So many other options on the peninsula for that price

I liked the location and being right next to a park in the city. Would have been nice to be able to see the park through our window but there was NO window! Great for sleeping in pitch black, I guess, not so good for knowing when to wake up. Fresh air is a good thing too. Not a room for the claustrophobic. I love that they made the old Citadel into a hotel but I don't think it's been updated since. It could use a refresh.

Location location location!
The location is perfect. The farmers market is steps away and everything is walkable. The suites were very spacious but not a window anywhere. The beds and furniture were very comfortable but everything was extremely outdated. The breakfast is generous and delicious as was the complementary happy hour. The staff were extremely accommodating. Would definitely stay here next time.

We enjoyed our stay. The staff were very helpful and friendly, especially Wallace and Tony at the desk. The bartenders could bend their elbow a bit more. The wine was barely half a glass, but it was free at the Manager's Reception, so I shouldn't complain! The free bus stop across the street was a nice touch for getting around.

Could of been better.
Hotel is very tired , needs a refurb. So much competition out there and the price for a room should qualify for much better standard and quality of room. Sitting in the pool looking at the beautiful decaying facade saddens the history surrounding the building.
