I really enjoyed the location and the beds were very comfortable. The property has the potential to be an excellent choice. We checked on our room and the AC was blowing, but it was kind of humid so we put it down to 70 to cool the room down. When we got back, it was very muggy and humid. That night I could not sleep at all because the AC was not working properly and I was sweating all night. We asked the front desk to fix it and they sent somebody up and it was blowing better but after 12 hours to give it time to cool off, it was still very humid. They sent someone up to fix it again and the second night sleep was much better. We really wanted to enjoy the indoor pool but it was halfway drained and not open. Housekeeping was excellent and the showers were hot after a few minutes and decent water pressure. I would definitely stay here again as the market out front Saturday morning was so cute , I just wish the maintenance of the property was better.

Steve , the GM, gave me a ride to the SC vs.LSU game. I was in the lobby bewildered about getting there and he rode in a white horse to my rescue. He also safely returned me to the hotel. What a guy. There are good people in the world and Steve is the best.

It's a Marriott so the bedding and shower were excellent. However, the hotel advertised an indoor pool that was not operational. That was false advertising. Also, the choice for parking was either $19/night for self park in the parking garage next to the hotel or $50 for valet parking. The staff were friendly, there was daily maid service and the accommodations otherwise were fine.
