My daughter and I came to Charleston for a long weekend and our stay at the Ryder was wonderful. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean and the location was GREAT! It was convenient that they offer beach towels among other things for day trips. Also, we used the $10 daily credit to get some rice pudding dessert and it was delicious. I highly recommend the Ryder and would gladly stay here again.
