Charleston Marriott Town Center
"We felt rather sad staying here. The property is rather dated. Not exactly run down, but definitely worn. The chip out of our sink, the buckling carpet that needs to be restretched (or replaced)...there were a number of little things that prevent me from giving my endorsement."
