“The Iris strikes me as a smart choice for Charleston, blending hotel reliability with apartment-style independence. Its location requires a little walking or public transit to reach the heart of downtown, but rewards with quieter surroundings and nearby bakeries. I appreciate the modern design and in-room amenities that go beyond standard hotel offerings.”
