Hyatt House Charleston/Mount Pleasant
Anyone have experience with this property? We're looking at it and it's pretty reasonably priced given the other properties in the area. BUT, it meets our needs - a kitchen/kitchenette and pet friendly.

If you are planning to be in the area for a pleasure trip, I would recommend staying at the Wild Dunes resort (Destination by Hyatt) nearby if the rates are reasonable - it's a bit further from downtown, but is right on the beach. The Hyatt House is in a strip mall off the busy road, and while reasonably convenient to both downtown Charleston and Isle of Palms beaches (15-20 min), is not a very inspiring property (as expected).

We may do a VRBO. I asked around, and the unit is very well located in a quiet area in Mt. Pleasant.
Thank you.

Finally stayed here for what ended up being 6 nights using the least expensive rate ($135) plus a suite upgrade to guarantee the 1 bedroom suite. As noted above, it is a solid property. Excellent location close to everything, and the breakfast was decent, but honestly, I don't eat much for breakfast besides a bagel, so the egg offerings, and waffles & pancakes were of no interest.
Room was spacious, well maintained, and clean. The kitchen was well stocked. There was plenty of closet space. This property really deserves more business, but since it's off the beaten path, it's probably not getting much. During the week it was pretty quiet though it did pick up for the weekend and was nearly full. I guess it's because it's off season.
We had to extend our stay for an additional night due to hurricane Nicole passing through the area which would have left us driving north in the storm, and they did so without issue and at the same rate. We had 2 small dogs with us and we were not charge the pet cleaning fee.
The staff at the front desk was very, very nice and everyone was super friendly.
We'll definitely stay there again when in the area.

I was looking at this place or Hyatt Place. We ended up staying at 'Hyatt Place Mount Pleasant Towne Centre' and absolutely loved it (for Mount P). Plenty of shopping and restaurants within walking distance.
