Beautiful in every way
We stayed here for a college visit to Clemson. We paid a little more than we wanted to and it May have been nicer than we expected and we were blown away by how well done the design was. The beautiful unique personal art that was hanging was a nice touch. The book by my bedside piqued my interest so I looked into the mission of the hotel and was So impressed. The walkability was perfect. You can tell it was all built with tremendous intentionality. I hope we get the chance to stay here again.

Beautiful hotel, perfect location!
Hotel is beautiful and everyone on the staff was extremely kind. Location couldn’t be more perfect. Also has a wonderful bar with very nice seating and patio. Restaurant downstairs was very good and convenient. My only issue was that we did not receive maid service when we had the sign out and we were out of the room for six hours. The next day we did receive maid service, however, it looks like all they did was make the bed and replace the towels. We had dirty glasses that were never replaced.
