I was disappointed that they did not include any coffee downstairs. There was however, K cups in the room. They did not offer any daily room service in short there were just no extras considering we spent over $1000 for three nights Someone spilled coffee in the elevator and it was there the remainder of our stay

An interior design dream come true!

Our room was absolutely gorgeous and the hotel itself was a design dream come true. Chloe at the front desk was very friendly and offered great recommendations and we were appreciative they were able to accommodate us when we got to town earlier than expected. We definitely will stay here again if we’re ever in back in Charleston. The only negative was that we had asked for an upper level floor at the time of booking and were put on the first floor right on a busy street instead despite being told they would try to accommodate our request a few weeks in advance… It was definitely loud since the road was literally right next our window.

We received great service both at the front desk and at the bar. This hotel is so cool because of the incorporation of the old warehouse elements. It was a first-rate stay.

Loved the big rooms/tall ceilings and the location. We did have a leak from the ceiling that got all over our things. Hotel did give us a new room quickly but did not help move our things nor did they compensate for any of the damages to our items or inconvenience of moving.

We have stayed at Ansonborough Inn for several years. It’s lost a little something with the new ownership. They used to have breakfast and complimentary coffee. Now you have to pay for a cup. Overall still a great hotel and great location. Parking is nice but you do have to pay $35/night, so might as well valet somewhere. We stayed for the first time on the 1st floor. Room was smaller and a little louder d/t street noise.

Property is close by to everything by foot, rooms are large and have kitchenettes, bar staff are very friendly, front desk staff are not very helpful or put much care; the rooftop patio was nice when it didn’t rain which was all weekend long for us. Hotels in general are overpriced in Charleston & approx the same $ for the same type of value. We had a bad experience in one of our rooms where the roof leaked; we were just moved to another room and no discount or credit given for a mid sleep at 1am disturbance of being woken up with water dripping on our heads. That experience & how it was handled left a not so great impression of the front staff service.

Very unique property that was obviously a waterfront warehouse. Structural supports are exposed, massive wooden beams and ceiling heights are 18-29 feet. Rooms are well appointed appointed and very comfortable. Nice little lobby bar and a wonderful rooftop deck.

This was a beautiful property and very convenient to walk around. Unfortunately we did have problems with our stay because we were charged $900 deposit on top of the $100. When I approached the front desk the lady let me know it was a mistake the hotel had made. I asked to speak to the manager and the assistant manager let me know he was not available the assistant manager was not helpful and said there was nothing the hotel could do and told me to call the bank. I called my bank and they told me the hotel was withholding my money. I told the assistant manager that I did not authorize the hotel to withhold more money then I had already paid. The hotel was paid fully before my trip. I asked for the managers email since he was out of office and I emailed him and he told me unfortunately there’s nothing they can do but that they apologize. This was devastating to here that they could not give me back the money that was mine nor provide an explanation on why they withdrew money from my account without my authorization. The service was not great with the managers as they did not provide any aid for the harm they had caused. I think this is something everyone should consider before booking.
