Top Upper King Design District Hotel Reviews

Moxy Charleston Downtown

8/10 Good

"Very clean, streamlined room. Central stash was helpful. Enjoyed rooftop area a lot - comfortable seating arrangements around decking, ping pong , cornhole and we played farkle. Son got up early to view spacex launch from patio — got some hotel crew out with him; he got neat pix from it. Downside—homeless shelter right next door and limited street parking where they hang. We had no issues with any of them, but I would not do alone. We did walk to king street area from hotel. Not too far. We spoked from hotel to north Charlotte, to folly’s island, to historic Charleston and to Shems Creek and Sullivans island. All easy drives."
