Residence Inn by Marriott Charleston Airport, North Charleston

This hotel is brand new and we chose it for the proximity to a week-long Bridge Tournament at the nearby NoChasn Convention Center. We expected that by December (hotel opened in late summer) most of the "newness" would have settled out. Most of it had. We were surprised (and amused) to find loose construction materials still imbedded in the carpeting of our suite. (we found several U-staples and even a drywall screw!) HOWEVER, the room was delightfully restful, the beds outstandingly comfortable, and the kitchenette adequately stocked with the essentials (including a corkscrew!). Bridge tournaments are very stressful, as the game is very mental and the scheduled sessions physically demanding. We had been concerned about the proximity to the airport, expecting to hear the multiple daily overflights. We DID NOT hear a single fly-over, except when outdoors! It was a wonderful stay and we will do it again, despite living less than 5 miles away!
