Only giving 2 stars because of location. Curtains don’t close all the way so you have these flimsy white curtain “covering” the window, but you can see right in. We were on the first floor right by the office, so everyone could just see it. We ended up using a hanger to hold the dark curtains closed. Shower faucet was broken and didn’t completely pull up so the shower head was only getting half the water to it. Beds were only a full size. Barely sleeps 2 adults comfortably. Also there was a $14 parking fee that wasn’t mentioned anywhere. Wasn’t expecting a 5 star experience, but really wasn’t expecting this.
The hotel is perfectly fine, really you get what you pay for. The rooms are a little small as is the bathroom but it's all functional. I found the beds very comfortable. Everything was clean enough although not really up to my standards. However, you can't beat the location just about everything I wanted to do was walking distance, it was great.
DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL!!! They have a scam going with a local tow truck operator. He patrols the parking lot on foot and if he sees you park in their lot and you walk away they immediately tow your car. I walked across the street to use a restroom as we had been driving for a few hours and then was walking to the office to get rates and attempt to check in and my vehicle was raised so high in the air I was concerned for my dog in the back seat. I asked what he was doing and he stated I was illegally parked and it would cost $100 cash right then or he would tow the vehicle to his shop and charge $200 to get it out. I walked around and opened my drivers door to see if my dog was ok from being so high in the air and he said I was not cooperating so he was towing the truck, with my dog in it (WHO HAS A LIFE THREATENING EATING DISORDER) and MY MEDICATION. I am an insulin dependent diabetic. He absolutely cared nothing about my dog, my belongings, or me attempting to go to the office to check rates/vacancy. I was forced to pay this thug $100 cash so I demanded a receipt and immediately went to complain to the hotel manager. The manager had absolutely nothing to say to me and it was evident that they are running a scam as the tow operator walked into the office to hear what I was saying. He was treated like an employee. The other couple, (who posted a review about this tow operator banging on their room door), was in the office complaining at the same time as me. I understand about illegal parking being a problem, etc. but you don't even get a chance here. If you don't have a parking pass hanging from your windshield YOU WILL BE TOWED IMMEDIATELY regardless if you are trying to check in or not. Complete scam/sham going on between this hotel and the tow truck operator. Truly sad and pitiful. I will be notifying Days Inn corporate about this and my loss of $100 trying to get a room here. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY AT THIS HOTEL THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU OR YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES...
This is not a four star hotel, but my experience was four star. I would definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends. I would also stay here again. Why? Great locations, very affordable parking and good room rates. When I entered the room, my first thought was, "wow this is much better then I expected from a Days Inn." It was much, much better then the cheaper hotel across from Ashley River, where I stated last time. While it would never be as elegant as its neighbor, it is the best I could afford in historic Charleston. The office staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean. No odors. Toiletries, not the best. Furniture was new enough. And again, the location and parking are the best in town!
NOTE: They charge a fee for the safe, and you have to request to have it removed if you don't use the safe! This info is on a small sign in the lobby and nowhere else. Rather shady practice. Knocked off a star for that. Really great! Very very impressed by how clean and pretty the outside is, and very happy with the location. Problems: toilet didn't flush right, so sometimes we had to take the top off the back. No light switches by the door, so it's hard to turn on the light when you come in. Bathroom rather small and unpleasant lighting. Double beds instead of queen. Strange tapping noises at night. Nowhere to hang a towel next to the sink. But these are small complaints. The room was clean and well-equipped. Microwave, large mini-fridge, good coffee. Overall very pleased.
