First time staying at the Palmetto Hotel. Couldn’t have been more happy with our stay. The receptionist and on duty guest services was exceptional. Noli went above and beyond on making my wife and I feel at home and help start our Wedding Anniversary weekend with such a great first time experience. Thank you so much Noli and thank Palmetto Hotel for making our 10th Wedding Anniversary weekend such a special one.
