The Ryder Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed at the Ryder many times now. Always provides a unique experience , service level is top notice with attention to detail and the best location. We’ll see you again soon!"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Charleston Riverview

4/10 Poor

"Staff were all excellent, no complaints at all. First room had toilet running all the time, I fixed that myself. Two lights needed bulbs replaced, I arranged that. The ceiling was peeling stucco, there was a general air of poor maintenance. We had problems with the key system, which we thought was fixed, after we reported it, however upon returning to the room after dinner we could not get in. This was about 7:30, the staff took about 30 minutes to gain entry then could not get the lock to work properly. We were then moved to a room in the main building. This room was just OK, everything worked but all a little scruffy, clean but all a bit old. My wife and I are 79 &80 so not the easiest start to our stay after a 8 hour drive earlier. Throughout this the staff were great and doing what they can but they can only deal with what is there. The first room should never been available. Question, does any of the corporate managers ever check the rooms for general quality. It seems to me the answer is no. Are the cleaners not instructed to report simple things like lights not working or toilets constantly running???"

Andrew Pinckney Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast here was amazing! The afternoon wine and cheese was lovely as were the staff serving it. The location was great with easy walking distance to the water. Parking was slightly confusing upon arrival, so watch closely for the sign to valet right next to the building. You pull your vehicle into a very narrow alleyway but if there’s another car there, you have to wait on the street until it’s moved."

Tides Folly Beach, Charleston's Oceanfront Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. All rooms face the beach. Adjacent to the pier. At the end of Folly Road. Walk to all the shops and restaurants. They have nice beach chairs for guests. Just check them out/in. One ding … No free coffee except in-room brewer. Continuous improvement suggestion … Rooms are not carpeted. Understand, due to the sand. But a throw/area rug between the beds would be a nice add."
