The Shem Creek Inn was a very accommodating hotel with very nice guest rooms and a great location for people looking for someplace tucked away from a busy area but also in relative distance to attractions. Very good for someone looking to engage in a fun night life with four restaurant/bars in close proximity.
Positives: Location was perfect for both privacy as well as proximity to attractions.
Negatives: We were able to hear people moving around in neighboring rooms very easily.

The staff greeted us like we were long lost family and even the Manager came out to chat from her office, striking up a conversation when she heard where we were from. Breakfast was what you would expect from a hotel without a restaurant but there are terrific restaurants nearby. We had been to this hotel before so we were perfectly happy just hanging out at the creek and did not get in our car until we left. We really enjoyed everything about this place from check in to check out. Parking lot was all sand but I think it adds to the character of the Inn.
Positives: Location, staff, restaurants.
Negatives: We could not stay longer.

This hotel was the perfect spot to stay. The atmosphere was awesome. Plenty of places right next door to eat or have a drink. Pool over-looked harbor. Dolphin were jumping in the harbor. Just really great. I would definitely stay again.
Positives: The location was great. The staff was friendly.
Negatives: Nothing.

My mom and I were looking for a night get away in Charleston. This hotel was very clean, nice comfortable beds and the hotel staff was very friendly the only thing was that our room that over looked the water was located next to an outdoor restaurant bar. It was so noisy. We didn't get a good night sleep till 5 a.m. This was a Monday night I can only imagine what a weekend would be like. If your looking for a party atmosphere then this is a place for you. Not a family hotel.
Positives: The rooms were very clean! Very comfortable beds!
Negatives: We had a balcony room that faced the water it was near a restaurant bar and it was very loud till 5 a.m. not very good.

The rooms are nicely appointed; very comfortable bedding with down comforters. Private balconies offer nice look over marsh even on parking lot side of hotel. Many choices for continental breakfast were a plus for our little one.
Positives: Front desk manager brought air deodorizer spray to help with smell of smoke in room.
Negatives: We needed a non-smoking room due to allergies but there was not one available.

Great location and good value. Rooms are clean and nicely decorated. Free wireless internet and breakfast. Things that keep this from being perfect are little details like cable going in and out due to loose cable connection. Had to jiggle toilet handle after flushing. Friendly staff and would definitely recommend.
Positives: Great location and comfortable. Good value.
Negatives: Missing little details. Had to jiggle toilet handle. Cable was loose from TV.
