Hilton Garden Inn Charleston Waterfront/Downtown

Nice place to stay, but give us more waterfront vi

Prós: Clean, helpful staff, excellent location, price not unreasonable (but not a deal either). We booked night before and got a room overlooking rooftop A/C units, but that was our fault.

Contras: One small patio with indirect view of the harbor from about 20% of it. The hotel needs to offer more lounge space with a direct view of the river - it's right there, so tantalizing - and we were told the only lounge area was the small patio off the lobby bar. Disappointing.
