A nice enough Hostel located within walking distance of the historic district of Charleston which is charming 20 min walk from the visitor center and Charleston Musuem which is worth a look

Actually NotSo great. attended only 5pm-10pm ?! zero staff outside these hours. if you arrive after 10pm or even at 5am, you have to wait til 5pm to leave your luggage and go visit the town, which is a good walk away. totally ridiculous & unacceptable for a hostel. either you are open and staffed 24 hours a day or you do another job ! nice room but only 1 bathroom on the groundfloor for 5 of 6 rooms, not enough. free internet access tries to make up for it. disappointed by this hostel.

A nice, small, relaxed hostel. Not enough bathrooms so expect to queue for the shower. In general a great little place that would have been brilliant if the staff allowed the room with internet and tv to stay open after 10pm. This was frustrating!
