Anniversary Get away
The unit was in great condition. Recently renovated. It is a historic building so there were very skeaky floors. The only thing we didn’t agree with is there was no mention that the unit was a time share.

Fantastic location
Loved the location of this place! We were told not to book a rental car when visiting downtown Charleston - that was a good suggestion. We took an Uber from the airport and walked or hopped on the free shuttle to get around downtown. Our room was spacious enough for me and my husband. When he slept in, I was able to hang out in the living room. We both thought the beds and bedding were extremely comfortable. Our room was not in a preferred location of the building. Our balcony looked straight out at humming mechanical units. So we could only see the courtyard off to the side. We didn't mind since we didn't spend much time on the balcony. Furthermore, in the evenings we could also hear music coming from a nearby restaurant. We did expect some pressure to attend a time share presentation - no one mentioned anything like that to us. Finally, we were impressed by the friendliness of the staff - we were greeted every time we went into or out of the building.

Not quite 5 stars
We love staying here for the location and the old feel of the building and rooms. This time we were given a room on Bay St and the noise starts early at 5 am. If I had a choice I would not choose it again - the courtyard is much better. The rooms there are always nice and clean, but this time it looked like it had not been vacuumed. everything else was great!

Great location!
Very nice staff. Clean. It’s a time share property which was not clear from booking. However, no hard sell. Just an uncomfortable sitch IMO. Wouldn’t stay again because I felt it was deceptive. However, the property, location were exceptional in that we walked 14+k steps daily x 3 d and were never bored or did the same thing twice.

Great central location in downtown Charleston!
This was a great location and the people were very nice! There are several restaurants within walking distance and a bar connected to this location, as well as the Market Street shopping and horse carriage tours close by. The water taxi was also convenient to go over to the Patriots Point area. We ended up with 2 smaller beds instead of a king bed, but that ended up being ok. There is a hair dryer, iron/ironing board, and a coffee maker. There are a couple of washing machine/dryer combos downstairs if you need them (we did not). This was a great stay and we would highly recommend this place!!

We loved staying in this hotel right in historical downtown. We learned a lot, walked a lot, and enjoyed our stay. People were helpful and friendly. The rental listing said pool, spa, and gym. They did not have any of these.

Two night stay at an outstanding location in beautiful, historic Charleston. Staff was warm, friendly and incredibly helpful. Room was large, clean and comfortable. This location is in the middle of everything you want to see in the city. Everything is in walking distance. We highly recommend this location and will definitely be back.

Excellent Historic Inn in the Heart of the French Quarter
The property totally took me by surprise. It was lovely from beginning to end. The valet met us right away and directed us where to park and unload. He unloaded everything, waited until we checked in, and took our luggage cart to our room. I highly recommend paying for the valet parking. You can stay at this Inn and never need your car. The staff was professional, courteous, and helpful in every way. The room was very clean and so much nicer looking than even the photos on the website show. I loved all the history and even some of the original features kept in place at the renovation in the 1980's. Original hardwood pine floors from the 1700's, fireplaces, and wood details abound. Just beautiful. We even had open doors to a small balcony overlooking a beautiful courtyard. You are right near the Charleston market, so many restaurants, the carriage ride and harbor tour companies, etc. It was perfect. You cannot go wrong at the Lodge Alley Inn. We had the one-bedroom studio. It completely suited our needs. Simple, elegant, with a small coffee bar with fridge. No need for cooking inside. Restaurants abound!

There were so many great restaurants in walking distance. The out door market was also very close. We only took our car once to drive to a plantation. Everywhere else was close enough to walk, even in the summer heat.
