Rating & Review Keseluruhan Starlight Motor Inn

Great stay, security guard at night. Clean and 15 min drive to downtown. I would stay again. The other reviews are correct about the area, but the security guard made it feel very safe inside the grounds.

Great retro place all newly renovated!

Retro/MidCentury vibe. We loved the pool. There’s a lounge and pool house.

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. When I got off the freeway and was heading towards the hotel, I thought oh this isn’t a great neighborhood and then when I was approaching the property, it looked like a rundown motel six When I walked into my bedroom, the entire space had been renovated beautifully. The bed and the bedding was brand new and extremely comfortable fresh paint wallpaper, and all of the amenities you would find at a very nice hotel was present in my room. A nice large flatscreen TV with many great channels to select from Again, I was completely surprised when I walked into my room.

We loved the decor and amenities. The beds were comfortable, the shower was hot and strong, and the room was nice and clean. Check in was a breeze and the location was convenient. We would have loved to stay longer to check out the pool and lounge - next time!

Our room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. We could not hear our neighbors or people passing by our door. The staff is amazing!! Very courteous, friendly and professional. Talking with them was like having a conversation with your friends. We had such a wonderful stay. Only downfall we had was that there was no mini-microwave in the condo. All other items (TV, mini-fridge, shower, bathroom light up mirror, etc) were modern and well kept.

A great little gem that was just the right cost. Room was clean and just what we needed for a quick trip. Room access was easy via text.

We absolutely loved this place. We loved the decor and the cleanliness. Very comfortable bed. Highly recommend.

Don't believe the pictures on their website! Whoever did the marketing for this hotel deserves an Academy Award. We arrived at the hotel after driving for 8 hours. It was dark, and the surroundings were intimidating. The motel is located in a terrible part of town. There were drug dealers, prostitutes, and homeless people all around. We arrived at 9:00 p.m. and could not find our room. No one ever staffs the front desk (you have to call a number to get any service), so it is impossible to get any help. Eventually, we found the room. It was awful. Looks nothing like the pictures. No closet, rusted chairs, and a leather love seat that looks like it was plucked out of someone's living room from the 90s. The curtain was falling off one side, and there were scuff marks and dings all over the room. Also, you could hear everything. Anytime someone climbed the stairs, there was lots of noise. Finally, the room next to our door was open: 4 men were living in the room on stacked bunk beds. They were (clearly) long-term residents. The stay was awful, and absolutely no recourse. Because I could only speak to the motel's customer service reps (like a closed doctor's office), they told me I could not talk to motel staff until Tuesday (we arrived Saturday). Sadly, because we did not feel safe, we were forced to leave and ended up driving back home (to South Florida) after one night at the hotel. If I can prevent one person from booking this motel then I feel like it was worth it. STAY AWAY

I loved the hotel, it was amazing, I just wished it was in area.

Sketchy neighborhood but very clean and comfortable room. Exterior could use a cleaning, but overall great for the money. Love the automated check in

Super cute property! Staff was very helpful. Rooms were equipped with what was needed. Cute lounge bar on property for some additional fun at night. Would definitely recommend to others :)

Overall, it was a good experience. Quiet room, easy parking and reasonable big room. The one thing that I did not like was the light outside my room was too bright. I will stay here again if I visit Charleston again.

Super Cool hotel. We loved it!!

We had the Best stay . Exceptionally clean , modern retro vibe . Bedding was so comfortable and air conditioning was the best . So nice and cool when we entered our room . Will certainly be staying again ! Convenient location to surrounding areas !

Enjoyed the stay. Was a bit weary of the area upon arrival, but the immediate area on premises felt secure. The rooms are small like any other motel but comfy and clean. My family stayed in one of the cottages which were SUPER cute! A lot of cute characteristics throughout in the reception area, the pool house and lounge. I can tell whomever owns or oversees the property takes pride in it.

Amazing gem of a hotel in Charleston. It seriously does not get better for the price! Rooms were beautifully updated and comfortable. We were four adults in a double queen room, and there was plenty of space for all of us. Would certainly stay here again. Staff were friendly, pool was wonderful, and the vibes were great. It is in a more residential area of Charleston, about a 10/15-minute drive from all the things to do downtown. We ubered some and drove some, with no issues.

Self check in but attentive via text

Loved the decor. Super friendly. Security all night made me feel safe. The #10 bus cost a buck to get us right to the visitor center in historic Charleston. Also it is not too far from Magnolia Plantation, the train station and the airport. Additionally there is a good comedy club and a restaurant about a 3 minute walk away.
