Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Charleston-North by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This our go-to hotel when visiting Charleston. Yes, it’s a bit of a drive from the historic area but the super friendly staff, great breakfast options and newly renovated rooms make it worthwhile."

stayAPT Suites North Charleston

10/10 Excellent

"!"

Days Inn by Wyndham Ladson Summerville Charleston

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was okay. The egg, cheese, and sausage croissant was good. I took an apple back to the room but only took one bite. It was brown and not good. The beds were comfy enough. We liked that there was a microwave and a mini fridge in the room. Our only complaint as far as our room went was that the toilet was low. As older people, we love the higher toilets. The A.C. was good and not too noisy. Parking was good. I feel like we got good value for our money."

The Cozy Hidden Gem

8/10 Good

"The host was genuinely wonderful. Very kind, responsive, and communicative throughout our stay. Unfortunately, the condition and upkeep of the property did not match what we expected for a stay costing approximately 4,000. There were several cleanliness and maintenance issues, along with a lack of basic supplies that we had to purchase ourselves. We enjoyed our time in Charleston and truly appreciated how helpful the host was, but for the price point, we expected the home to be cleaner, better maintained, and better stocked. With some attention to maintenance, deep cleaning, and amenities, this property has a lot of potential."
