The Francis Marion Hotel
This hotel is all about the location. If you are expecting a modern hotel this isn’t it, you can tell the rooms and in general the hotel is outdated. But the room was spacious, bathroom was tiny though.

The Ryder Hotel
Our room did not have much extra space. But we only spent one night there. The hotel was a convenient walk to the sights and food of Charleston.
