That being said everything was damp the whole hotel - rooms - sheets everything slightly moist and maybe that's just Charleston? But aside from their doormen and cleaners staff was really quite abrasive and all seemed to have much better things to do than help a guest at their place of business. Would I come again? Yes probably because it's one of the "better" options. Could they improve - yes.

I stayed at The Vendue from Sunday through Wednesday this past week, and I had a fantastic…read moreexperience from start to finish. Every single person I interacted with was friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. You can tell the staff genuinely cares about making guests feel at home. My room was spotless, and one of my favorite things about the hotel was all of the artwork. There are unique pieces displayed throughout the property, and I thought it was really cool that you can actually purchase them if something catches your eye. My room happened to be French Bulldog themed, which I loved because it immediately reminded me of my best friend, who's obsessed with French Bulldogs. Another thoughtful touch was that every morning they left a small bag of pastries and fruit outside my door. It was such a nice surprise to wake up to each day. I'm also someone who always keeps the "Do Not Disturb" sign on because I usually don't want housekeeping coming into my room. Instead of assuming, they texted me each day to confirm that I didn't need anything or want my room serviced. I really appreciated that they checked in without being intrusive. The location is excellent, the rates were very reasonable for what you get, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations. I wouldn't hesitate to stay at The Vendue again the next time I'm in Charleston.

What I loved about the hotel was the quirkiness. I wouldn't want to live in a house with a pug head for a door knocker, but it was fun for a couple nights! The location was also prime - right on East Bay for a quick walk to Market or down towards the water for an evening stroll past the pineapple fountain. I also really appreciated the early morning delivery of a muffin and croissant -- it was so nice to get my bag of goodies off the door handle and enjoy them while watching the morning news or puttering about in my pajamas. Even with all these delights, there were some drawbacks. The first room we were taken to had one chair -- whereas the room description included a desk and chair. I didn't need to write a novel, but with one chair and two people I'm not sure where they intended for us to eat breakfast. We also happened to be there in the midst of their conversion from one art theme to the next. So there were no evening gallery receptions or talks about the artwork (one of the selling features for us). This was also a quirky hotel for accessibility. To get to our room we went up in the elevator, then down a hall, down about 5 stairs, through a fire door across a stairwell landing and through another fire door to our room (one of two on our floor). I know that this would have been a difficult trek for my older parents, especially with luggage. Bottom line, it's a cute little hotel with a lot going for it. I might even stay there again the next time I'm in Charleston.

This hotel is in the center of everything. The shops the restaurants the bars .. the staff is unbelievable. Jenifer helped us with the check-in with all the little things that we needed throughout our stay from bottles of water to coffee in our room to laundry.. the valet which I had four of them while I stayed here at the hotel were all prompt. They had my car waiting for me when I arrived from out of my hotel room they washed and wiped down my vehicle every morning before I exited for a day of of shopping and dining and experiencing the local entertainment and museums. next if you've never stayed at a boutique hotel, you deserve to treat yourself to experience where they treat you like a person not a guest, where they know you by name not a number where your room feels like you're not far from home then in an airport and that's what the hotel Richemont delivers each and every day. the coffee in the morning was outstanding the croissants, Sweet and fresh. The staff always attentive to anything that you might need before you leave for the day . Thank you Jennifer again for everything

A Hidden Gem Steps from MUSC's Dental School I discovered…read moreParson Inn while searching for accommodations near the MUSC School of Dental Medicine in Charleston -- and I couldn't be happier with that decision. From my very first phone call, Karen "The Owner" welcomed me with warmth and professionalism that set the tone for the entire stay. This is a charming, well-run inn of about six units that punches well above its size. Its location is truly ideal: just a block from where I had my dental procedure, and right next door to a wonderful family-owned Italian restaurant -- a lifesaver when you need good food close by (especially with a sore mouth!). Despite recovering, I still managed to explore a bit. Folly Beach is just 20 minutes away, Mount Pleasant is a quick 10-minute drive across the bridge, and downtown Charleston -- with its stunning antebellum homes and excellent dining -- is right down the road. Everything felt wonderfully accessible. If you're visiting Charleston for a medical appointment or simply looking for a cozy, personal alternative to a chain hotel, Parson Inn is my first and only recommendation.

They shared the history about their home which is now converted into cozy suites and newly remodeled suites for visitors to enjoy. I believe there are 6-8 suites in the home, some with bathrooms attached and others share a common bathroom We occupied one of the top floor suites which had a jazz inspired theme. The home is 3 stories and has a common living room area and kitchen. We walked through the neighborhood and gained knowledge about the value of the homes, community and the diversified living. This was an ideal place to stay because of the location. Close to shops, restaurants, and the hospital. There were guests staying there who had family members in hospital care and other tourists just exploring Charleston like us.

Donna will have none of that, she contacted me by phone not long after my confirmation and we chatted as if we had been long ago friends. The personal interest in our reason for visiting, as well as, ensuring we could early check-in if needed made this a much more intimate experience than just hoteling (sic) it for the weekend. This bed and breakfast is amazing and will long be a place for us to "run away" to hide among the intowners. You feel part of the city being so deep in the French quarter and surrounded by lovely art galleries along side upscale dining and venues. We walked all weekend and enjoyed so much of this beautiful city we call home. I completely recommended this 3 room B and B, from the personal touches to the amazing local breakfast pastries and french pressed coffee to the beautiful folage of the lovely veranda and courtyard just outside our room. Our sweet little study could listen to the beautiful fountain all night and even with the chill in the air we slept so soundly and toasty.

I chose the hotel, because I wanted to stay somewhere with historic charm (I wanted to feel I was in Charleston)! It was an all right stay. T he building (a historic house) was beautiful - especially the porch, where you can sit and enjoy your coffee in the morning. Our room was nice (it had the wallpaper and wood features I really wanted), especially the bathroom. But the room had seen better days (peeling wallpaper), wasn't the most functional (no outlets near the bed for charging phones), and had a strange basement room (down the stairs was a basement room with a TV, bar, and couch - it was a little creepy, but more than that, I just didn't think it was safe to have those steps so close to the bathroom door - someone who'd had a few too many drinks might just fall right down those steps. The location was okay/pretty good - not really in the heart of things, it was about a 15 minute walk to King Street. This worked for us on Saturday, because it was a lovely day and we had a chance to see a bit of the city (the 15 minutes is a great walk past restaurants and shops), but the weather on Sunday made the distance not so great. And FYI - the walk to the Battery would probably be an hour, but you can obviously Lyft/Uber or pedicab. The location was great if you want a little separation from the more touristy parts of downtown or a quieter neighborhood, but we did Uber more than we normally would on a weekend trip. My biggest gripe is that the hotel is a no-staff or self-service hotel (there's no one to check you in and you are sent the information you need to get into your room ahead of time by text). I've stayed in no-staff/self-service hotels on two other occasions. Sometimes it works out fine, but it really turns a hotel into an airbnb. You can't leave luggage with the front desk if you're checking out hours before your flight nor are there the amenities you might expect at a hotel with front desk staff. I didn't realize from the description on hotels.com that The Ashley was a no-staff/self-service hotel, and I probably wouldn't have booked it if I had known (because we had a 6pm flight and ended up having to store our bags in our friends' hotel). The staff (not on site but available by text) were responsive and helpful, but I think I just prefer a standard hotel. Overall, our stay was fine, but I probably wouldn't stay again.

The fire pit and the porches are worth the stay - absolutely breathtaking. We spent a lot of time outside which was great. The snacks and drinks were very nice.
