Nice Hotel

We were there for appointment at MUSC so really not a pleasure trip. The room was nice and clean. Did not like that they also charged for parking and there were only paper and plastic cups in the room. The staff was very nice. Thought it was pricey, but everything in Charleston is.

Disliked: Staff & service
I booked this location just to find out upon arrival to the front desk that there were no available rooms. Instead of being helpful, the front desk attendant was very curt and dismissive. At other Marriott locations, staff have always been very attentive and pleasant to deal with even when things aren't going right. Kelsea was the front desk attendant that really gave a bad attitude to the location. Being front desk is your first impression of the hotel. I'm local and work at MUSC, sending many vendors to this hotel to stay in the past and will be considering other locations for the future based on this experience. Jeremy was the manager at the time of this issue and did not come out either to assist or explain the situation. From both individuals, I was extremely disappointed in the lack of empathy, helpfulness, or general welcoming attitude and will thus be sending business elsewhere. In the future, I would suggest if this happens, to have management come and explain the situation in a polite manner, or at the bare minimum have the front desk attendant be more pleasant and empathetic to deal with.

The staff were courteous and kind. The free shuttle to downtown Charleston was amazing! The hotel room was comfortable, updated and the cleaning staff were great. We added breakfast to our stay each day and the food was very tasty and large portions. We highly recommend this hotel as part of your Charleston experience.

The room was large and very clean. It had a nice bar area to spread out our belongings (food/toiletries/etc). The balcony was large with rocking chairs and a nice view. The pool and surrounding area were very clean and had great views of the marina and surrounding areas. They also provided a free shuttle servto the water front park area although you can also walk into the downtown area from sidewalks that run the entire way. Good place to stay for the price and proximity to downtown Charleston

location for what we where there to visit in Charleston was good. Courtyard snack bar behind the front desk should be upgraded. Bistro menu, food , service should be upgraded stay at current prices. Ridiculous to pay $32.00 for a full caesar salad and $6.00 for a prewrapped chocolate chip cookie. Just ridiculous. Parking should be $5-$7.00 per day based on how busy hotel is and having to park covered or uncovered parking.
