The first room I was in was filthy. I went to bed laid in the sheets, and they were never even changed the next room that I got had hair in the shower. The staff was wonderful, but the cleanliness was disgusting.

Disappointed on my last trip at Ryder. Stayed here before and had a good experience BUT this was the first time I tried to use the pool. There are 11 lounge chairs and it’s first come first serve. Fair. But what’s not fair is they sell day passes to people who are NOT staying on the property. So there are not enough chairs for your guests but you sell spots to others? Our plan was to have a girls trip by the pool. The Ryder had other plans for us. Next time I will stay somewhere else.

Completely overpriced and underwhelmed! I am still in shock over the amount of money I just paid for our stay. Small boutique hotel in good location, with great marketing advertising…but what you actually get is along line of 2 star hotel. The tiny pool and small bar is quaint -it is trendy with lots of bachelorette parties going on. The front desk attendant at night was no help at all and 1/2 time no one was manning the lobby area and very non helpful staff Our room smelled of mildew and the lighting was dim at best. Had a view of alley. For $900 on a Friday night I expected way more. Not enough towels, no Kleenex and no fridge or coffee maker in room. Couldn’t believe my daughter and I had to share a bed and couldn’t find us a 2 queen bed room when requested months in advance. Threw away our room service food because undercooked. Carpet unclean and old in hallways. Where is the southern hospitality? Wow-so much buyers remorse right now. Luckily it didn’t influence the good time we had in Charleston, but wouldn’t recommend hotel at all.

We had to change rooms due to a DJ playing on Friday and Saturday nights—the music was extremely loud until 2AM, which made it hard to sleep. While the location was excellent and the staff were wonderful, the overall property was just okay.

Gorgeous hotel - a little noisy at night Great adult hotel. I was traveling alone and it was perfect. There were a lot of adult couples and older family groups staying there and it is a perfect sunny retreat. My kids wouldn’t have loved the pool area, it’s for cocktails not cannonballs! I found the hallways noisy until past midnight, during the week. It’s a fun hotel - I definitely would have liked a white noise machine.
