Location was perfect!

This is a great location! It’s walkable (within a mile) of everything in the city and just steps from the Market and restaurants. There were a few janky things like a post it note over the broken peep hole in the door, remotes for fans and lights were cheap and barely functioning. We found hairs (not ours) in the bathtub. Loved having a full kitchen and two floors. The bed was comfortable; the couch was not. We spent most of our days out and about so not an issue.

Location is good, Suite was clean. No real housekeeping, every three days. No continental type breakfast. Limited to sub par black coffee only. The hotel owner should hire friendly front desk person. The young woman at front desk should not work in that position. Rude, no hospitality at all, does not leave customer with a good impression of the hotel.

Great location

Bed was very comfortable. A lot of space with the upper bedroom and full bath and the lower with a kitchen, living room and 1/2 bath. Few items needed repairs, a shower curtain rod is about to fall down and carpet tacks at the bathroom threshold. Great location, easy access to Charleston activities.

2 nights in Charleston

Really great boutique hotel in the middle of the French Quarter, close to the Market, shops, dining and everything else. I believe the rooms are all two stories, ours was, with a spacious sleeping area (2 beds) and full bath upstairs, and a living area with pull out sofa, full kitchen and 1/2 bath downstairs. I stayed for 2 nights with my 2 daughters and the space was ideal for our needs, especially 2 bathrooms with 3 women! The building, itself, was old, but pretty much everything is old in Charleston. More importantly, it was clean, comfortable, and the ac worked great! The staff was super friendly and accommodating too. There is a lovely courtyard, and a gym on the premises, which was also a nice perk. Could not have asked for a better stay. Thanks to all at the Church Street Inn!
