Do you like ants crawling all over you? Then you'll love this infested hotel. Ants were all over my stuff in not just one but two different rooms (after room two I was DONE.) which considering I brought food with me is an absolute deal breaker. Now not only do I have to throw out all that food, I also was told I can't get a refund because I had technically stayed tonight (no, I came back to find ants all over and packed up at 1am. I'm still finding them crawling out of my stuff even at my new hotel.) Honestly the whole place looked like the kind of place you go to lay low while running from the cops (but they were still charging $100/night?!) - sinks that didn't drain, sketchy parking lot and surrounding area, doors and furniture that were more patch than original. At least I didn't get trapped in the one working elevator - the one with half the buttons taped over.

Everything was excellent except the parking lot which had dead trees, weeds in walkways and uncut grass. For very little money, you make a much better first impression.

Go stay somewhere else.
If you are looking to stay in downtown Charleston, just pay the extra $50 to stay in a nicer hotel. While the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, the sheets and towels were bright and clean, the actually infrastructure of the hotel is less than desirable. The pool is incredibly small and there was only one working elevator when I was there and it felt like it was going to break at any moment. Cheers to the staff who make it work, but Best Western really needs to invest in the inside of the hotels.

A very good room as far as space and comfort. Service was excellent and the breakfast was good but typical. Elevators look a bit run down including one that was out of order

Room flooded, they transferred us to 2 different flooded rooms, than a bug infested room and then another bug infested room. The next day our room key wouldn't work and they wouldn't let us in our room... because they said "it wasn't our room." Worst hotel experience I've ever had.
