    clean room
    great location
    inconvenient walk

    Great location and the room was clean and spacious—perfect for a solo traveler. The atmosphere was vibey enough to make you forget the outside world for a bit!

    The walk to my room felt like a mini-marathon. Who knew I signed up for an outdoor hike?

    excellent access to downtown parks and historic attractions for explorers

    I loved how I could easily walk to notable spots like Marion Square and Joe Riley Waterfront Park, allowing me to soak in the beautiful surroundings without hassle, while the amenities like free coffee in the morning made starting each day extra pleasant for my solo adventure.

    We had a great time enjoying the delicious grilled fish and the vibrant patio cocktails, but the AC issues made our sleep uncomfortable. Overall, I would return for the food!

    inadequate housekeeping

    What a fantastic spot close to everything! We loved the days filled with family fun, exploring unique places to eat and enjoying the lively atmosphere.

    In my wife’s opinion, housekeeping could improve this place. The extra beds we requested were not fully made up, which was a hassle with three kids.

    friendly service
    excessive parking fees

    A charming stay in historic Charleston

    The location was perfect for exploring downtown, and the friendly service at breakfast made mornings memorable. Breakfast was a delightful start with local pastries.

    The room was not very well insulated. we could hear noise from neighbors. Also, parking fees felt excessive considering the overall cost of our stay.

    bike rental
    crowded pool

    great location but lack of lounge chairs

    I enjoyed the spacious king room, which offered a trendy and comfortable stay. The availability of bikes and beach chairs for checkout added a unique touch to my experience.

    However, the pool area can get crowded quickly, so secure your lounger early.

    cozy coffee bar
    stunning pool
    outdoor sun terrace
    noise from outside

    I absolutely loved the cozy coffee bar in the morning and the stunning pool area was a perfect spot to unwind. There’s also a nice outdoor sun terrace that made lounging enjoyable after a busy day exploring. The only downside was a bit of noise from outside during the night, but it didn’t ruin my experience at all! 😊

    The Ryder Hotel features a charming, trendy atmosphere with stylish decor that adds to the overall inviting experience. I particularly appreciated the clean, well-maintained common areas, which made navigating the hotel easy and comfortable for someone my age.

    A more accessible pool area would be helpful.

    good pressure shower
    nice choice

    Just a nice choice for getting around the area in Charleston with good price-quality ratio. The shower had great pressure, which was a refreshing surprise after a long day. Make sure to check if the room has any maintenance issues before settling in.
