I was nervous about no front desk. But everything was so smooth. Information for key codes was sent right through hotels.com messages. The upper balcony is where we spent most of our down time. The bed was super comfortable. We will be back.

This was my first stay at this establishment and I will be back. It’s a cool concept, as a self-service hotel. The room was huge and very comfortable. This is basically a renovated older South Carolina mansion. They did an excellent job. It’s the kind of place mywife will love when I bring her back here. Great work with a cool concept! I highly recommend.
