"The TV in our room never worked properly. I told the front desk the first day and asked again. No one ever came to check the TV. It was out of focus. Also, the site advertised free breakfast and a pool; there was no breakfast at all… not even coffee in lobby and the pool was drained. The staff did not offer alternatives to breakfast even though there was a place attached to one part of the hotel. I thought it was closed. My room was clean but the stairs and outside was not swept and sloppy....

There was a matrix of dots in the middle of screen. We did try to watch a movie, but it was terrible. Room 509. We ‘lost the signal’ several times while watching Nickelodeon- not even streaming. We couldn’t get the temperature below 72, which is too warm for sleeping"

"My recent stay at The Charleston Place was exceptional in almost every way—impeccable service, outstanding food, and a warm, welcoming staff that made the experience truly special. Every detail, from the beautifully maintained property to the thoughtful customer service, reflected the high standards of the hotel. However, the one major downside was the quality of the beds.
