Rooms were clean, top to bottom. Beds are comfy. Felt safe. Super friendly staff, helpful always.
Easy access to the pool and outside inclusive bar.
I'm used to coffee in the room. There are no coffee machines, but there is a Cafe downstairs. They do tend to run out breakfast items quickly.
Great staff!

Recently stayed at the Ryder for a mother daughter weekend. The location is great, rooms were nice, enjoyed the pool and the little palm. Chelsie Casey and her staff at the front desk were great, lots of good recommendations and helped us book exercise classes, they really helped to make the stay perfect.

We loved our stay here! Everyone was exceptionally friendly (but that did seem to be the case with all of Charleston). The entire hotel from the lobby, lounge area, and rooms were well decorated and aesthetic. The room we chose was a small one but it was just what we needed. The bed and bedding were excellent! The location was also highly ideal as we were able to walk to almost everything during our stay!
The only downside is that the gym is in the hotel next door which we didn't end up going to due to that being slightly inconvenient.

A very pleasant and well-appointed property located conveniently to restaurants, shopping and historic sections of Charleston.
The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Hhe only suggestion I would make would be to install refrigerators and microwaves in the rooms.
Our paring valet, Chutney, was very gracious and took very good care of us during out stay.

Ryder review
3.5 Stars
Pros:
- Very nice and helpful staff
- Fantastic location
- Cool lobby and bar vibe
- Available bicycles and other playthings
Cons:
- “Suite” @ $431/night plus fees and taxes, does not include parking
- Very low quality mattress and bed linens, towels, bath tissue. Like shockingly cheap stuff reminiscent of a low end Caribbean all inclusive
- No fridge, no water, no nothing in room
- Old building, framing is musty and loud: thin walls, lots of noise from outside, inside hallways, other rooms
Conclusion:
Pay for the convenience - GREAT location and the place does have a bit of quirky cool - but do not expect a bargain or particularly impressive room amenities. Staff are super nice. Just know this is a redecorated Best Western.
