Low on Hot water on the weekend, but comfortable beds. Quiet too. Would stay again though.
Pros:

The Breakfast was good and had most of the things that we liked. Could of had more fruit options. The Location was good for what we were doing.

Cons:

The last 2 mornings our room did not have hot water so we had to do a quick sponge bath. That was uncomfortable. We had asked for the 2 day towel swap, but it was the 3rd day that we asked for new towels. That was okay.

“Comfortable Stay but Security Concerns”
Pros:

We stayed at the Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites Charleston North/Ashley Phosphate from November 20–23. Overall, our room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast each morning was excellent with plenty of choices.

However, we did feel uneasy at times due to several sketchy individuals lingering around the entrance and lobby areas. These people were clearly not hotel guests, and their presence made coming and going a bit uncomfortable. While this didn’t ruin our stay, it did impact how safe and secure we felt on the property.

With some increased attention to guest security and monitoring who is spending time in public areas, this hotel could offer a much better overall experience.

Photo 1 – Hotel Lobby Scene
The image shows part of a hotel lobby with modern décor. A person wearing a bright red hoodie is seated alone in a small lounge area near the front entrance. They appear to be looking at a phone while sitting at a low round table that has several items on it. The lighting is dim, and behind the person are tall vertical blinds and a wall with nature-themed artwork and decorative objects. The overall scene gives a quiet but slightly uneasy atmosphere because the person seems to be lingering rather than actively engaging with hotel services.

Photo 2 – Exterior of Fairfield by Marriott
The second image shows the front exterior of the Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites Charleston North/Ashley Phosphate. The building is a mid-size, multi-story hotel with blue and gray sections and palm trees lining the front. Several cars are parked in the lot, but the ground appears somewhat messy, with scattered litter visible. The sky is overcast, giving the photo a muted, dreary feel.

It was great except 2 things
Pros:

Everything from the staff to the breakfast was great.

Cons:

I didn't like the musty smell and stale air in the room. The A/C was not working. Even at 68° it was too warm.

This was a pleasant and comfortable place to spend the night.
Pros:

For an older hotel, you can tell that the staff makes a concerted effort to present a clean, comfortable, and pleasant facilityl. The breakfast offerings were fully stocked with a large variety. There was no problem selecting items for a satisfying breakfast meal.

Cons:

Lighting in Room 308 needed to be addressed. The overhead hall light when entering the room did not work at all. The light over the bathroom mirror would attempt to light, but never really did. There was a dead bug of some type on the bathroom floor near the toilet.
