Quality Inn Charleston South

10/10 Excellent
"We were impressed with how clean it was. I always take disinfectant wipes with me to clean things we touch like remotes, door handles, etc. The wipes stayed clean except for a little bit from the refrigerator door handle. I have found that to be disgustedly dirty in other places, but not here. We also found the bed to be very clean and comfy!"
