My wife and I traveled to Charleston this past weekend for a short getaway and had a most refreshing experience while staying at the Best Western hotel. I say refreshing simply because we were greeted by Steven and I believe her name was Tracey with smiles and humor during a very busy time when we first arrived. Everyone we came... more

If you are looking for a five-star hotel, look elsewhere. If you are looking for a good value that is not too far from this historic district, this is the place. As stated in previous reviews the property has recently been renovated. The rooms were clean, but the AC unit was a bit loud. There was cable TV and a... more

*The part that will alarm most travelers is at the billing portion of this review found in the last paragraph. My stay at the Best Western Charleston was not the most relaxing of vacations. My husband and I arrived from a 4 hour drive at around midnight. We were anxious to get to sleep for our 3-day weekend. When we... more

There's not much I can add to the other reviews about this hotel. Just know that it's not exactly walking distance to the historic downtown section of Charleston. Having said that, the hotel was very courteous and arranged for a taxi whenever asked. Fares were about $5 to the center of downtown, which is probably cheaper/easier than driving your own... more

We booked through Priceline and were initally pleased with the location and price. However, when we checked in to our room, we found the tiniest rooms on the 1st floor with a fenced in "patio" - we questioned this until we noticed that the sliding glass doors had obviously been jimmied from the outside several times. We were traveling with... more

I booked this hotel for government business and initially was satisfied with the room. After the second night however, I awoke to several large bed bugs on my pillow. Needless to say, I have over 30 bite marks on my arms and back. This was the first time in my life I encountered these vile creatures! For $10-$20 more you... more

I recently stayed at the Best Western Charleston Downtown while attending a conference at the adjacent Marriott. The rooms were half the price of the Marriott. My roommate and I had a top floor corner room with 2 queen beds. You could step out onto the small balcony; granted, it wasn't big enough for chairs, but nice for a breath... more

I lived in Charleston for 4 years, and returned for a weekend to visit friends. My boyfriend and I did not feel the need to stay in a historic bed and breakfast or "charlestony" hotel, because we are not tourists. We wanted clean, basic accomodations with a comfy bed and good location, and that is exactly what we got. To... more

This place was a very pleasant surprise. The only mistake I made was that I walked in, and it wasn't until I got home that I realized I could save 20% by booking through their website in advance. To be honest, I was so happy with my stay that I really didn't mind because the price was fair without the... more

We stayed at the Best Western Downtown formerly The Ashley River Inn on June 19 through June 21. Booked directly through the hotel and received a special with a King Bed for $79.00 a night. We were on the side of the hotel with a view of Arbys and a McDonalds is under construction so before 7:00 am the construction... more
