We currently stayed at Shem Creek June 30th-July 5th. When we arrived our room appeared to be clean. We however never received any housekeeping during our whole stay. We even asked one of the housekeepers if she could clean our room on the 4th day we had been there, she never showed up. Also the other groups of people we were there with never received any housekeeping there whole stay.

The Shem Creek Inn was a good home base for us in Charleston. The hotel pool was great. The location overlooking the river was really fun for people watching! Hotel parking is really convenient. Walkable to several restaurants right on the water and a quick drive to other restaurants on Sullivan's Island. The hotel breakfast is ok. Not great, but easy. Fridge and microwave in the room were really helpful. We will definitely stay here again when we're back in the area.

We had a balcony room overlooking the pool so we were able to sit put there before dinner people watching and listening to the music coming from across the river. We walked to dinner each night, which was nice after a day of sightseeing and one afternoon the Airforce was practicing for an airshow that weekend. We were able to see the fly-bys from the balcony. We had a great visit.

Grab a room overlooking Shem Creek. Staff “Doug and Grey” were 100% fantastic.
Perfect walking location to some of the BEST restaurants in Mt.Pleasant SC. Room was spotless, A/C was nice and cold. The Inn is on the Shem Creek marshwalk which is a joy to walk and spot birds, sea life including dolphins, beautiful boats, sunrises and sunsets.
Perfect location to immerse yourself in a relaxing and beautiful southern lifestyle.

OMGosh!!! What a great surprise this place was. Right in the center of the action and a short drive to Patriots Point, the Old Village in Mount Pleasant and close enough for an affordable Uber to Charleston. So many restaurants were within walking distance and we could hear all the live music while we were swimming in the pool. This was a great place for our family (kids 10 and 13) because the area was full of college kids and young adults (who were all very respectful) but the hotel itself catered more to middle-aged adults and families. It was perfect for us because my husband and I got to feel the energy of the area without having the kids being exposed to a party scene. The hotel was clean and bright and the staff were kind and helpful. LOVED, LOVED, LOVED it! P.S. If you go, I highly recommend walking over to Page's Okra Grill for breakfast. AMAZING!

Cute Inn, great location vibe but you definitely want a Creek view. The Marsh view is mostly a parking lot view. Creek view offers a lively and fun view of all the restaurants and bars as well as the property pool. Drawbacks of staying here are if you are on the first floor, you will hear everyone walking, etc. above you. Walls are pretty thin and you can hear people snoring. The ventilation in the bathrooms should be upgraded as they don’t really ventilate well. Overall this is a cute and fun vibe and the staff was great and friendly. It is not luxurious so if that’s what you want, this is not the place to stay. If you want low key chill out, clean and easy with walk to bars and restaurants and a great water view then this is your place!

Excellent location! Staff helpful.
Would have appreciated the room being swept/vacuumed and dusted daily as there is a lot of sand coming in especially after a day at the beach.
We spent 5 nights; sheets should have been changed after 3.
Door to the room needs to be redone, needed a towel in front of the door to help with noise and light.

We had no idea just how wonderful this area and hotel could be! The beauty of the waterway, the wonder of the dolphins and the peaceful quality of the hotel, we loved every minute we were there. The walkways around the water, the dolphins swimming - it was all wonderful. The Shem Creek staff were all friendly and helpful and made our stay great. I found Shem Creek from reading novels about the area and am so happy we decided to visit!

I booked the room for, as I thought, a quiet place to stay outside of the city of Charleston. Shem Creek happened to be the most sought after place in the area. Thankfully, we always found the last reserved hotel parking spot every evening. Plenty of good restaurants, walking opportunities and quick drive to beaches; 10/10 on location. The hotel itself was fine. The outside patio was clean but the inside and rooms only would get a 5/10 on cleanliness. No housekeeping so took care of towels and garbage myself.

The location and pool area were great. Our room (especially the floor) were not the cleanest. It was almost as if our corner room, were forgotten about prior to arrival. Unfortunately, there were no dressers in the room so our clothes remained in suitcases and in chairs the 5 nights we were there.
So…the location was great, the pool are was clean and well kept, but the actual accommodations in the rooms were very disappointing. The front desk team were very nice and helpful…the cleaning team not very attentive or helpful.

Cleanliness, particularly in the room, was very poor. The sheets did not look washed. Not sure the last time they mopped the bathroom or bedroom floor. Several gross sticky stains on the floor. One example was a small piece of what looked like relatively fresh pizza cheese and sauce on the floor.

We loved our stay at Shem Creek! Parking was easy for hotel guests, which is good because that area gets super busy. Staff was great, rooms were clean, beds were very comfortable. We'd definitely stay there again!

Perfect location to enjoy by itself or venture to Charleston. Easy to Uber around with a variety of restaurants. Marsh side is quieter with the busy nightlife on the creekside. They are pleasant at MT Pleasant!

La réception n'a pas été à la hauteur à peine sympathique.

I mistakenly booked 2/10 instead of 3/10-both Tuesdays when making my reservation. I realized it when I received my check in info. I immediately contacted both Shem Creek and hotels.com to see if I could rebook for correct date. No one was willing to work with me. Everyone make mistakes!!

We are in town frequently to visit our daughter in college. I will stay at the Shem Creek Inn every time! It’s a fabulous location with a wonderful view, clean rooms, friendly, helpful staff, great breakfast options and amenities! You honestly could not ask for a better place to stay! We have never been disappointed

We killed three roaches in our room throughout our stay. Nothing says bad vibes like roaches in your hotel room. The hotel is cute and in a fantastic location, but it feels very Covid era where they still aren’t doing housekeeping throughout your stay. You have to get your own towels and put your trash outside your room. The whole place needs attention and a good scrubbing.
