Convenient location and in walking distance to most attractions and restaurants. Very clean and staff were very friendly. It could use a little updating here and there, and elevator had some issues.

Location was perfect!

This is a great location! It’s walkable (within a mile) of everything in the city and just steps from the Market and restaurants. There were a few janky things like a post it note over the broken peep hole in the door, remotes for fans and lights were cheap and barely functioning. We found hairs (not ours) in the bathtub. Loved having a full kitchen and two floors. The bed was comfortable; the couch was not. We spent most of our days out and about so not an issue.
Jerome, 5-night trip

I had a great stay. The Staff were very friendly. Location is perfect to enjoy downtown Charleston.

Great Place to Stay!

Highly recommend Church Street Inn for location, cleanliness, comfort and value. The rooms are unique, as they are really small apartments. Staff are engaged and care about creating a positive customer experience.

Close to all activities and customer service was excellent.
Ricky, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is in the middle of everything in old Charleston. Parking is in an adjoining deck. A suburban sized vehicle is a tight squeeze. The rooms were clean and super quite. Our room was large and two stories. 1st level is a den with kitchen and 1/2 bath. 2nd is a bedroom, large closet, and large bathroom. The bathroom has a shower and 2 person garden tub. The tub is really useless because it takes forever to fill. Overall this hotel was wonderful for the price. Rarely do you leave feeling like you got a deal. My only complaint is that the property needs a little love because its slightly dated. However this would not keep me from staying here again. We enjoyed our stay.

Queen of Queen Street

Enjoyed our stay. Loved the unique nature of the rooms and the big windows. The kitchenette was helpful especially for a quick breakfast. The people at the desk were especially helpful and friendly. Great location to everything in the historic district. I would stay here again.
Donna, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

The "suite" was on two floors, kitchenette and living room on the first floor and the bedroom on the second floor. you had to go up a flight of stairs to get to the bedroom. I am handicapped and have to use a can or walker. this was not mentioned on the hotels.com website. Also it says valet, but there was none and they didn't clean the room once during uor 3 nt stay,even after asking.
Stephen, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Unique two story suite - worked well for us. Good kitchen with full size refrigerator. Hotel is very conveniently located. Only issue was it is classified as long term - so no cleaning during stay. Nice courtyard area. Free coffee in morning. Friendly staff
