Our room did not have much extra space. But we only spent one night there. The hotel was a convenient walk to the sights and food of Charleston.

The Palmetto Hotel
Clarity on room configuration - I booked a premier room with “multiple beds” and it turned out to be one king bed with a pullout couch. I expected two queen beds. Also the breakfast could be improved. The value for money is not quite there.
