Our room was beautiful and our host was very kind, letting us arrive after 3 am, and helped carry our bags up the stairs. The bed was comfy. We slept well.

Fabulous room if you are into the off beat. Historic vibe with some modern amenities. The hostess was charming and showed iconic southern hospitality. I was a little put off parking on the street right in front of the hotel, but that was hot it was done 100 years ago and I have to say it was cool waling down from a second floor historic building to find my parked car waiting for me right at the hotel front door. A great place if you are doing anything in downtown Greenville. My only issue was that some lights in the bathroom and the one in the shower was burned out. A very minor inconvenience.

The Skylight is located on the upper floor of a building that dates back to 1900. In other words, it isn't your typical cookie cutter place, and it has character. The staff were amazing, and the location was convenient to places I needed to go. The room was extremely clean, which I appreciate. If you love staying at quirky, locally-owned properties when traveling, this is a great option.

Loved the Historic Beauty of this hotel. The room was very nice and charming. The bed was so comfortable. And the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely stay here again. Only negative thing, would have been nice to know about the stairs to enter the hotel.

Very nice lady working the desk shared the history... built around 1900 as a 'lodging house' for travelers coming in from a rail depot that was located just across the street. It was quiet, on-street parking was ok. Located on 2nd floor, no elevator.

Nice job re-doing the building to be a hotel. Towels were tiny. There was no coffee maker in the room.
