We cut our trip short. The facility was noisy both from the hallway and the street noises. Our bed was tilted with our heads at a lower point than our feet. This was not comfortable at all. We were disappointed, Marriott's are usually better stays.

Feels like home

My mom takes chemo treatment across the street at the MUSC infusion center. This facility is perfect for a few nights stay. The beds are the most comfortable I have felt at a hotel in a long time. The staff is very friendly and accommodates also any of our request. They even allowed us to do a late check out when my mom treatment ran over.

Good Nuclear power training command hotel.

Really good trip, drove up to see my fiancé who's at the goose creek nuclear power training command and stayed here for the night. Really clean and comfortable, only downside is the infotainment. Really old tv's and electronics.

The front desk clerk was helpful in letting us pick a room, but the ice machine he placed us close to was -broken- anyway. The pool/hot tub area was clean with plenty of chairs, tables, and loungers. The gym looked sufficient, but rather small. The breakfast area was comfortable and the food was tasty. Oatmeal, cereal, waffles, yogurt, etc. The scrambled eggs were great, but the sausage and bacon were just ok. Attendants kept everything stocked and clean as people came and went for food. Overall, breakfast was good. A very nice choice, I’d choose it again if I needed to stay in the area.
