The Ryder Hotel
"Did not appreciate the hidden costs such as an amenities charge that I was not aware of when booking the reservation. Also, the charge of $58 a day to park your car is a bit too steep"

The Francis Marion Hotel
"The hotel is dated, the bathrooms are tiny. But it’s very central and the room itself was large. If you book on hotels.com your view is the alleys or other building roofs and chillers. That seems to be the same at most hotels I book thru this app. The breakfast at swamp fox restaurant was awful. ..."
