Negative Reviews
negative:
Renovations could be overdue
Reviews suggest that this hotel is starting to look a little shabby and over-used in places. This probably won't affect your stay too much, but you may feel disappointed if you prefer a hotel to look fresh and new.
negative:
Air-conditioning is ineffective
Charleston is a fairly humid city and, unfortunately, the hotel's in-room air-conditioning does always seem to be up to the job of counteracting the damp surroundings. Some guests report that their clothes felt damp, while others simply say they were too hot.
negative:
No free breakfast
Unlike the Holiday Inn Express properties, Holiday Inn hotels do not offer a free breakfast. This confused and disappointed some guests. It doesn't help that the cost of breakfast is fairly high.
