My husband and I stayed three nights at this hotel because it was one of the few in Charleston that had free parking. Upon our departure, we found a 6 inch bolt had fallen on my car from the ceiling of the parking garage causing over $900.00 worth of damage. A month and half later we are still trying to get the hotel to pay for repairs.
