Go stay somewhere else.
If you are looking to stay in downtown Charleston, just pay the extra $50 to stay in a nicer hotel. While the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, the sheets and towels were bright and clean, the actually infrastructure of the hotel is less than desirable. The pool is incredibly small and there was only one working elevator when I was there and it felt like it was going to break at any moment. Cheers to the staff who make it work, but Best Western really needs to invest in the inside of the hotels.

A very good room as far as space and comfort. Service was excellent and the breakfast was good but typical. Elevators look a bit run down including one that was out of order

The Lady working the front desk was great and very helpful. The only negative I have would be the elevators need repaired. Only one elevator was operational and it was overworked.

Room flooded, they transferred us to 2 different flooded rooms, than a bug infested room and then another bug infested room. The next day our room key wouldn't work and they wouldn't let us in our room... because they said "it wasn't our room." Worst hotel experience I've ever had.

Only 1 of 3 elevators worked. Run down lobby, parking, entrance. Public areas shabby, need paint and repair. The rooms were fine - perhaps they’ve been updated. The rest of the property needs maintenance attention.
