Best choose a unit on the third floor to guarantee a water vista.
Michelin Guide "This historic district property overlooks Charleston Harbor. Low country-style guest rooms feature four-poster beds, wicker chests and seagrass rugs."

Jetsetter "Boutique inn with classic Charleston style just steps from the harbor and the city’s best sights." Full review
