This hotel was such a classy place that is right downtown. If you want to have a great, clean, comfortable place to stay and be able to walk to all of the restaurants and stores, then stay here. We will be coming back again. We even got to take a horse drawn carriage ghost tour that left from across the street. The staff were friendly and helpful and nice to talk to. The breakfast was great and homemade every day. Just can’t say enough about this hotel.

Quick trip to Beaufort SC
The hotel is perfectly located on Bay Street to be able to walk to everything. Our room faced a back street with beautiful old homes. The room and the bathroom were very clean and roomy. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The gentleman who checked us in was very nice and made goid suggestions for dining. Other members of the staff were friendly. And the free breakfast Wonderful!! Real eggs, fresh baked pastries, hot and very good. The best breakfast we've ever had at a hotel.

We DO NOT recommend. I appreciated the convenience of the location. Parking was an additional $10 and was a challenge with tight spaces and most were parallel spaces. We checked late at 1130 pm. Great staff member! We requested a late check out for 1200, which was accomodated. At 1130 the hotel guest services barged in our room after an abrupt knock and no wait for response. 1 min later the phone rang amd Savannah, at the front desk called to ask why we weren't checked out. After explaining we requested a late check out, she said, "We dont do late check outs! Well, it's already 1130, so I cant kick you out now!" I told her I felt as if we were being harassed and she interupted me in a hostile way and said, "No, dont do that! You're not being harassed!" I then went to the office to get a receipt for my parking and explained her unprofessionalism. She apologized and gave us 2 free water bottles and a parking refund. Our room faced a brick wall and was soffocating and dark. The room was meh and felt humid. WE HAD A ROACH ON THE PILLOW and my daughter refused to sleep in that bed. We crammed on 1 queen after looking for other bugs for 45 minutes. NOT WORTH $160 A NIGHT.

We were greeting immediately by a staff member when walking towards the main office. Once inside we were again welcomed warmly. The front desk agent was very friendly and gave us all the information we needed. The room was clean and quiet. Many restaurants were walking distance. Parking directly on the property is also a plus. We were even stopped by another staff member while packing up the car who took the time to make sure we had a great stay. If ever passing through Beaufort again I would definitely stay here.
