The Palmetto House
Clean, spacious, accommodating to my family of 5. We enjoyed that it was not directly on king street but close enough for us. If you like to walk this is your place !

The Quarters on King
The hotel room itself was in good condition, but the decorations were completely inappropriate. The French colonial maps on display are offensive and disrespectful to many guests. They should be removed immediately.
