The Starlight Motor Inn, hotel in Charleston

Located in Charleston, 4.4 miles from Hampton Park, The Starlight Motor Inn has accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a shared lounge and a bar.

What a fantastic jem! This is a super cool property with an attached bar & lounge that is also, well, super cool!. My husband and I had lots of fun on karaoke and live band nights. The staff and management are great...full of great conversation.

Days Inn by Wyndham Goose Creek, hotel in Charleston

Located 20 minutes’ drive from Charleston International Airport, the Days Inn Goose Creek offers grab and go breakfast. Guests can also use free Wi-Fi in all areas.

The location was perfect for where I was going, and I like that I was staying in an area that was not too busy. The facility seemed clean, although I am always weary of my room due to work ethics of people, as I have stayed at motels (high end) in which the room was not clean, bed sheets not been changed out. I was satisfied with my stay here.

Charleston Creekside Inn, hotel in Charleston

This property overlooks Long Branch Creek and is just a 15-minute drive to Charleston Historic District. The inn features an on-site fishing dock and an outdoor pool.

The setting on the creek was beautiful. The location for my needs was great. Elsa, front desk, could not have been more helpful. She went out of her way to check on me to make sure I had everything I needed. The property guests were quiet and polite. The property was well lit so I wasn't fearful of walking my dog at night by myself.

All motels in Charleston
Looking for a motel?
Both travelers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help make check-in quick and easy.

    They are putting the effort into making this place nice, you can see they have invested in new beds, but this is NOT a hotel, Its a Motel. If you plan to do a quick stop its ok but this is not a place for a vacation.

    We expected it to be a motel-like stay. But it in fact it was better. I would put it somewhere between motel and hotel. For example the breakfast was really good, almost similar to the one you get at Holiday Inn. There were no issues with any amenities, which is a big deal...

    The location was OK. That's all I can say. The room was horrible. No PHONE. NO CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST DINNING ROOM CLOSED. PLUGS FALLING OUT OF WALL, SOME NOT WORKING AT ALL. NO PLACE TO HANG CLOTHES. LIGHTING WAS VERY POOR 1 LIGHT IN MAIN ROOM, NO LAMP. POOL WAS YELLOW, ICE MACHINE WAS NOT WORKING. FOR THE MONEY WE PAID WE WILL NEVER USE YOUR CHAIN OF MOTELS AGAIN.

    Affordable, clean motel. But we don't normally stay in motels, but the name is Inn. I realize I should have looked at the pictures, but I was in a hurry. Linens were great, and the room furnishings were very nice.

    **WARNING: DO NOT STAY AT THIS PROPERTY. It is located in the most dangerous part of town, with cops showing up regularly to control trespassing and drug activity. Do not be fooled by the “Wyndham” name - this is a motel establishment with not a safe environment to offer to guests. Spend a couple of dollars elsewhere if safety is a concern. Shady prance for sure.

    Great breakfast. Great location in a wonderful city. A block from King Street, the lovely shopping street, and a short walk to neighborhoods. The staff were lovely and friendly and went the extra miles for us ( after two weeks on the road, we’d gone through our clean clothes and they did a wash for us). Free parking on site. Great wifi, comfortable beds.
