Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Patio was worn down, pads on seats were dirty, lights were out at night until I called and complained because we couldn’t sit in patio. Cockroaches in my room twice, main room & bathroom, outlets didn’t work, only bath outlet worked, had to call and leave message, bed lamps didn’t work at all. communication was by phone/text. Had to wait till next day to get clean towels because no staff on premises. Only saw 1 staff person two times for a short period. Fireplaces in rooms and downstairs are only for looks?? The only thing that was suitable was suitable was the Nespresso coffee makers and water bottles from Costco. Pictures on website must be from years ago right after touch up paint, wall paper and new fixtures. sad to say wouldn’t recommend. We would have been better off at Hampton inn or Holiday inn

Great access in a safe area, next to the Medical University of South Carolina. Parking was free and MUCH appreciated for a medium sized SUV. Walking distance to shopping and restaurants , even the water front We will most definitely be back . The price was very reasonable for the area, downtown and the size of room #7 was nice !!!!

Stayed at this beautiful B&B for nights, loved the straight forward but fresh filled bagel and yoghurt options for breakfast, also the available drinks and snacks. Was lucky to have gorgeous weather and enjoy our breakfast on the wrap around porch. The neighborhood was safe and friendly. Accommodation prob 10-15 min walk from downtown but we easily booked Ubers, the on site parking was great meaning we could easily access our car and also get onto the interstates to visit further afield. Only gripe was our room was a little bit dark sine brighter lighting would make some tasks easier for those of us without 20/20 vision.

Been in many hotels worldwide. This is the worst of the worst. First of all , this is not hotel. This is B&B. No staff around. If you have problem , you should call a call center , in Atlanta, with no good English speaker , they won’t answer you and you need to wait up to 24 (!) hours so they will call yoy back.

Bed and a sandwich

It was dark in our room. The shades did not work. Very little light. When we plugged in the heater it shorted out our elec for two days. The fan in the bathroom was so load, cudnt hear myself think. There was no service. There idea of service was to stack cases high of water and soft drinks. It was very noisy all night. The stay was terrible. I don’t believe the reviews I read. Cudnt wait to get out of that dam b & b, and that’s using the term very loosely.

We only stayed for one night but it was great! The property was beautiful and very clean. The parking was easy and it was in the perfect location. I loved that our room had a Nespresso fully stocked and the breakfast and snack area in the lobby is such a nice and appreciated touch.

My room was a well furnished suite with a very comfortable king bed. There was plenty of room to spread out and a welcoming common area downstairs with lots seating inside, and on the porch.

The property is very beautiful, what I expected. The room is clean and I love the Nespresso coffee, water, & snack bar. My only complaint is it’s very noisy; other patrons are treating the common area as if it’s an Air Bnb; yelling up the stairs to one another, & just loud. It’s not the restful night I thought I’d have. I really love the room and area but maybe a stay during the week would be better.

Good stay, nice facility - had trouble using coffee maker, more complicated than I am familiar with! My room #2 was vey small, which was ok, but was cold and could regulate the temp! Will be using your facility again and would like location of others! I left my glasses, went back and your service lady had them for me! Greatly appreciated her kindness!!!!!!
