Great stay
Pros:

The satff was very welcoming- the stay included breakfast, as well as a wine/cheese reception and late night cookies and milk. They offer 7 different types of pillows and allowed us to check in 2 hours early!

Cons:

We were not able to get late check out, so that was a bit disappointing.

A perfect place to stay in Charleston.
Pros:

The staff were absolutely fantastic. From check-in with champagne, to a very nice wine and cheese happy hour, to a real southern breakfast, to having the car brought to the front without our asking, they thought of our every need and more. The location is perfect. The hotel is first class.

Cons:

We liked everything.

Best visit to Charleston, ever. Look forward to our next visit to the French Quarter Inn!
Pros:

Every aspect was outstanding from the moment we arrived. We were greeted by super friendly people, given a beautiful room and notified when it was ready. It was my wifes birthday so they left a bottle of champagne in our room! it was a great touch! The food on the breakfest buffet was outstanding also.

Cons:

not really anything. we have NO complaints,
