Stained sheets

Absolutely beautiful hotel but was so disappointed once we got to our room. Little tiny bug things in our room that we're so annoying and pulled back bed and found stained sheets!!! We were SO upset... didn't expect this from such a nice hotel. We travel all the time and don't see stained sheets! VERY disappointed!

I loved my stay at Emeline. I received a room upgrade, which was a pleasant surprise, and my room was immaculate with snacks and drinks stocked in the mini fridge. Additionally, the on-site restaurant, Frannie and the Fox, was excellent, and I appreciated the convenience of having it directly downstairs along with the Clerks coffee shop. I also appreciated how close Emeline is to restaurants, the Charleston Market, and various other places of interest. Many of Charleston’s top attractions were within reasonable walking distance, which I loved. I would highly recommend Emeline to anyone considering visiting Charleston. I truly enjoyed my stay and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
