This was a super cute, fully renovated motel. The room and bathroom were immaculately clean, there is a really fun lounge on-site, and it was close to the Coliseum where we were seeing a show. It's also very close to the lively parts of North Charleston so getting around was very easy. We will definitely stay there again!

The property itself is fine, it’s perfectly fine motor lodge, it’s Justin a part of town that has nothing in it. Also, charging $200 for incidentals is ridiculous.

This place was absolutely not what I was expecting. Everything inside the rooms were updated and high functioning. Even the internet worked better than any other place I've stayed recently. The lounge was amazing on Wednesday night to listen to live music and the staff were friendly and helpful. I have to say this is a must stay and I will be back. The only knock on it is the area surrounding is not the best. However there were zero issues while we were there and I feel comfortable enough to come back several times.5 stars!

Classic styling of the 60’s and very well appointed upgrades don’t deter from the vibe. Surrounding area is a little downtrodden and industrial but felt very safe.

I liked the property. I liked that I did not need to interact with anyone. The Caribbean restaurant down the street was excellent. There is a bar/night club on the property and my neighbors were noisy which was not what i needed after driving. Not the properties fault.
