Bottom line is they are under staffed. Printed signs all over the place stating elevator not working, bathrooms not working. This hotel needs a major upgrade. The nice wood floors in my room were filthy. Staff was friendly. Obviously poor management of the property. A real shame

The staff initially gave us keys to a room that was not turned over when we got there, so we had to take our things back to the front desk. After about 10 minutes of technical difficulties, they gave us new keys to a room that did not work either and we ended up having to go back down to the lobby to fix this. Once we were in our room that was supposed to be ready, the maintenance men had to come in and replace the TV remote. The TV was also unable to play any streaming services or smart cast from an iPhone, which seemed outdated for a Holiday Inn and considering the price of the room. The bathroom was also not very nice as the toilet seat was broken and the shower basin had been painted over to seemingly hide rust, but the rust was still showing in various areas. The AC also did not seem calibrated as the room was too cold some nights and unable to cool off on other nights.

The building is Extremely outdated. Turns out, the locals call it "The trash can". The outside is littered with cigarette butts. All over. The first morning we were there, part of the lobby ceiling caved in. The front door was broken. No ice in the ice machines. We did have a large room. Old and ratty, It was subpar at best. It was also conveniently located between meeting rooms where setup makes all kinds of racket very early in the morning and late at night. We slept very little. They fail to mention the door to the balcony has been closed for good. I wouldn't advertise it if people can't use it. To be completely honest, the ONLY thing this hotel has going for it is the staff. They were very kind and helpful. The overall stay was an extreme disappointment. We wouldn't go back if it was free. You get what you pay for.

The location of the hotel is close to downtown, and it is convenient to park the car there (free parking) and take the shuttle bus to downtown. The hotel itself has a unique cylinder like structure, and my room has an view of the river. Room is relatively clean, but you can see the ages of the hotel. Staffs are pretty friendly.

Enjoyed the rooftop restaurant and bar, we chose to go there each evening instead of going elsewhere. The shuttle to the City Market was VERY convenient and made it so much easier for us to sightsee. The desk staff, driver, and all other staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely return to this location the next time we plan to visit Charleston.
