    “What a great stay at this gem of a property. Our Charleston vacation was great and the Andrew Pinckney helped to make it very memorable week. We booked a standard King room. Cozy and very clean. The bed was so comfortable, we had a great night's sleep every night. Housekeeping came daily and we always came back from being out to a refreshed room. Soundproofing must be pretty good, we never heard anything from our neighboring rooms. What sets the Andrew Pinckney apart was the little touches. This is not a mega resort, it's a boutique hotel that really seems to care about the experience of the guests. We met the friendliest staff at the afternoon wine and cheese hour. Afternoon treats (the cookies were very tasty) and lemonade/sweet tea in the lobby was a nice touch too. The included breakfast in the solarium was genuinely good with your standard cereals/pastries/yogurt and fruit as well as eggs/quiche and a breakfast meat. Great way to start the day for sure. Location can't be beat, you will be right in the historic Charleston area with everything within walking distance. We walked to dinner each night and the shopping on King St as well as the waterfront are just minutes away. Valet was convenient, we never waited more than a few minutes for our car so no issues there. Overall, this was a great value for a Charleston stay and we wouldn't hesitate to come back again. The Andrew Pinckney has a lot of character and we hope it stays that way! Highly recommend.”
