Like a slice of Mid Century Modern, Palm Springs motel. Hip, retro, restored, classy Grindhouse-style stay. The staff are great, the pool is great, the amenities are great. There's a bar and a lounge with live music. Its well curated. Its close to major highways to get downtown, and even though it's a bit off the main strip in North Charleston, bars and restaurants are a jump away. With an LGBTQIA+ Cocktail lounge nearby and the kitschy-vibes, complete with 007 movie posters on the walls of the rooms, this is a great independent spirit and likely one of the best concept stays in Charleston.
