Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room I stayed in was large with 2 queen beds and immaculately clean, but I faced issues like a small TV and a bathroom door that didn't work. The service provided was a bundle of extremes - from one staff member not having a clue about the menu to others being fantastic, top of the line, very courteous, and professional. The location worked well for me, perfect for walking my pets and suited my business day needs, though it was a bit far from other amenities like Starbucks and away from other hotels in Santee, SC. The dining experience was excellent, but the downside was that it was not a part of the overall bill, so that was a bit of a letdown. Overall, it is a pretty nice place with traditional local cakes on offer.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, offering a wide range of TV channels. However, some areas needed renovation. The service was exceptional, with a friendly and respectful staff that went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction. The location was convenient for my business trip, but I noticed some minor maintenance issues. The dining options were average, with a limited selection and slightly high prices. Despite minor flaws, I had a good stay at the hotel.

The hotel's rooms were incredibly clean and the beds were super comfortable. The TV was modern with a wide selection of channels to choose from. Although the microwave and refrigerator were small, the room also featured a Keurig coffee maker. The lighting, while having LED bulbs, could use some improvement.
