winter visit to Charleston
Just a quick weekend in Charleston. I picked the Emeline because of location and they were dog friendly. We loved this hotel. it is beautiful and all the staff was welcoming. It is 1/2 block form the market, which in the winter is not packed- during the summer this are might have a lot of foot traffic. Easy walk to any part of the old city you want to visit. The room was small so having luggage w2as an issue but it was lovely and the bed was comfy. We were not in the room much. The coffee shop allowed us to have our our in for our morning coffee which as a treat. Each floor has a Nespresso machine for your use. Was lovely to make a cup of tea in the afternoons. this will definitely be our go to hotel.

Loved it!
Absolutely loved the Emeline. Great style, comfortable rooms, really thought about things to keep the guests happy (like great coffee machines, tea, sparkling water, and fruit on each level). Our room hadn't been cleaned properly beforehand (clothes left in it, etc.) and yet I still thought it was a very clean, awesome hotel otherwise.
