Priceline Hotel: 2* Charleston Holiday Inn Express Civic Center

[mcgervey]

First bid 3*, $50, again trying for Embassy or Marriot, which I prefer, failed.

no areas to add for Charleston...

Second bid 2.5*, $50, failed.

Third bid, 2*, $40, expecting HI-E or Best Western, success.

Thankfully it appears the Charleston House Holiday Inn has been removed from Priceline. It had been listed as a 3*, which was insulting and ridiculous, and I made many complaints to Priceline. I would rather stay at the 2* HI-E than the Charleston House at any stars, which has been let to become a DUMP, and then tries to charge you $7 for parking.

Nice property, great breakfast, great breakfast lady, nice lobby and public spaces, no pool, decent rooms though a tad dated (older tvs, etc, no fridge). King beds hard to come by under request, and rooms with two beds are doubles, not queens.

Conveniently located downtown, ample parking, friendly staff.
