We stayed in the The Gullah Suite in downtown Charleston. The suite was beautiful and well maintained. There were mini split units in both bedrooms as well as the living room which was really nice because we all like different temperatures. There was an entrance right on King Street and also one in the back for parking. It was very convenient and close to everything that we needed. We walked around downtown every night. We had a great time and definitely want to stay again!
