A lovely boutique hotel located in the heart of Charleston on King Street allowing you within walking distance to amazing restaurants and shops. The hotel was super quiet, room was well appointed, the bed was one of the most comfortable we have ever experienced in a hotel. The pillow, sheets and comforter made for a relaxing sleep. The ktichen had a full refrigerator, washer and dryer, oven, microwave and stovetop and a well stocked minibar. The staff was super accommodating and housekeeping kept the room spotless. Highly recommend this little gem.

Everything about this place was just fantastic! The cleanliness and the comfortability was amazing. The staff were so welcoming. I was immediately offered complimentary champagne which kicked off our stay! This hotel is in the heart of downtown so we were able to shop, eat and look around all within walking distance which is a plus! The rooftop bar was such a vibe! I would absolutely stay here again!
