yankedog Posted July 15, 2016 #1 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Do you have information on transportation from airport to port in Charleston? How much is UBER, CAb, car rentals (and can I drop it off and get transportation to the shop). Where are the decent $110-$140 hotels in the area. We are coming in day before cruise, so need to land at airport, get transportation, get to hotel, dinner and to bed. Get transportation to boat and then ask for a Pina Colada! How is Mt Pleasent/Patriots Point/Ashley area? HELP!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is Mt Pleasent/Patriots Point/Ashley area? HELP!!!!!!! Mt. Pleasant/Patriots Point- quick shuttle/cab/uber ride over the bridge to downtown Charleston to the port, but you have difficulty getting a hotel in that range. You'll have better luck in W. Ashley, but Mt. Pleasant is prettier and probably better choice of restaurants. For the rate you desire, you'll have better luck in N. Charleston, but frankly I'd spend the money to either stay downtown or in Mt. Pleasant. If you stay downtown you can walk to restaurants in and around the historic district and you'll be ridiculously close to the port, probably just a couple of bucks for an uber. If you stay in Mt. Pleasant, there are a zillion hotels right at the base of the bridge. You're a very quick uber ride to many good restaurants in the Shem Creek area or anywhere along Coleman Blvd., and still a short uber ride to the port the next day.

ChucktownSteve Posted July 15, 2016 #3 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I suggest you check out Town & Country Inn; a very nice independent property with good reviews in West Ashley. It's a straight 10-15 minute shot to the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not mind a place that would let my car stay there to the cruise is over. Sent from my SM-G935V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the Holiday Inn Express in the same area near the Cooper River Bridge allows you as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G935V using Forums mobile app I can't say for the other hotels but we stay at the Mainstay Suites in Mt. P and they let us keep our car there for a week for free. They don't have a shuttle but Uber to port was around $15 for an UberXL for my family of 4 with our 29834729374 luggage's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
