A last minute travel decision meant we book what’s available. I mean it should be ok, part of the Hilton portfolio…Upon arrival we were given a room that had an overwhelming odor of a dog in need of a bath and a window with the view of a truck tailgate. Yes, the truck was literally backed into a parking space that was within a few feet of the window. The concern of a vehicle crashing into our room had now far exceeded that disgusting smell. Evidently Guest safety is not a priority. We gathered our belongings, returned to the lobby and requested to be moved. The Lobby had become congested and was overrun with several Dogs. We love Dogs, however we found ourselves and others being growled at. Our move to another room had now infringed upon our time to experience Charleston and we did a quick drop. We returned that evening to a room temperature of 78 degrees and at no point during our stay did the air work. This complaint was heard from other Guest and it seems there is an ongoing problem with the air system. The fun, beauty and charm of Charleston far surpassed our unsettling experience of this Hotel. We will go back, however we will NOT ever stay at this Hotel again.

Great place to stay. HVAC seems to be showing age
Love the location. Friendly staff. Bed was comfortable. Only problem is that the HVAC system needed maintenance as it would not warm the room (61 degrees) when we first arrived. The maintenance man was prompt and in a few minutes fixed the problem. However, it seems the system is old as it took much longer than usual for the system to reach minor setting changes. Yet, we'll be back.

Nice Place to Stay in Historic Charleston, but...
The hotel was a rather typical Hampton Inn but the location is superb if your intention is to be near King Street, the transit center, restaurants, sights, etc. Breakfast was good and there were plenty of items to choose from. The front desk personnel as well as the travel desk person(s) were all top notch. Where it fell down a little was in several areas. First, the hotel is a bit shopworn and in need of some sprucing up: carpeting, elevators, paint. Next the bed was okay but not great. Next, the HVAC in our room was of an older model and had to be switched to heat by Hampton staff. This is after a night of cooler room temperatures. And finally, there was no refrigerator in our room which was somewhat out of the ordinary for Hampton. This was an inconvenience but we managed because there was an ice maker just down the hall and we brought our own cooler. Still...

Our AC didn’t work properly and had to be fixed by a staff member, which did resolve the problem. The breakfast was truly horrible—all of the warm dishes were cold. And the site should explain the costs for parking in more specifics.

The best thing about this property is obviously the location. A stones throw from King street in the heart of the shopping district in Charleston. Other than that, just your basic normally priced midmarket hotel but because of the locale, priced as a high end hotel.

Perfect location!
It was a wonderful hotel, the location was perfect and the accommodations were exactly what we expected. The only downside to the whole stay was that our heat was not working that well on the last night so it was a little bit chilly on our room.
