The maid service is offered every other day and they day they were supposed to do it, they forgot to make the bed. Its a fine place and for what they charge for the area I'd stay there again. Its a commuter hotel and that's it nothing more.

Stayed here for Clemson’s Parent Weekend. The young man working the night shift was very nice and helpful. Unfortunately, that was the highlight of our stay. The room was extremely small, and the bed was low, hard, and incredibly uncomfortable. By day three, our room still hadn’t been serviced—no clean towels, toilet paper, or soap. When we asked the woman at the front desk why housekeeping hadn’t come, she responded rudely and repeatedly stated that the hotel only services rooms every other day. We had to explain multiple times that it was day three, and our room hadn’t been touched at all. She finally said she’d send someone, as if she were doing us a favor, rather than acknowledging the oversight. When you’re paying over $300 a night, you expect better service than this! After we left, we stayed at the Courtyard Marriott in Charleston and paid about the same—but had a way better experience! The staff was amazing, the rooms were nice, and although housekeeping was also scheduled every other day, they actually followed through. We get it—Parent’s Weekend is always crazy busy—but all we were asking for after three days was for our room to be serviced. Not too much to ask.

Overall the stay was decent. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. The bed was very uncomfortable - it felt worn out and I had a hard time sleeping and woke up with a terrible back ache. The mattresses need to be replaced. The WiFi is also very unreliable - it took me 15 minutes and a trip to the front desk to finally get connected. Safe area and easy parking.

Very enjoyable stay

We had a great visit at this hotel. From booking, to checking in, and throughout out stay... everything was great. Very nice and clean. Beautiful view of the lake from our room. My only complaint, i asked at check in if the breakfast had waffles, and was told yes, but it ended up being a prepackaged waffle and my very picky daughter would not eat. Was really hoping they would have had waffle maker for fresh waffles.
