Vivo Living Greenville

For the price, I think these rooms beat the big hotel chains. They’re about the size of a studio apartment and have a kitchen with a full-size fridge, stove and the dishes you need to cook. I liked having two large cream TVs. The hotel itself is spotless and tidy. I’m sure you’ll like it as much as I did.

The apartment suites were close to everything we needed, so we didn’t have to drive far. Chantel was really helpful when I called on arrival day. My husband and I were there for a birthday getaway and a change of scenery. The room was clean and nice, and I love seeing everything white and clean. We had a wonderful three-day stay and I’d consider them again for future plans.

The general manager took great care of us, and we’d definitely come back. We were visiting friends with our kids and booked online. Check-in was easy and we got into the room quickly. At first we were next to a dog that barked whenever we passed the connecting door. They moved us without any fuss so we could rest and the dog owners could too, since my kids are always moving and setting the dog off. We all slept well, and there was plenty of room. The little courtyard has a shaded spot by the BBQ grill where we enjoyed starting the morning with coffee. The kids liked coloring on the turf. There’s no pool on site, but there is a gym, and the place was great for me and my kids.

For a hotel charging $130 a night, I’d expect some quiet-hours rules. People were yelling, slamming doors and playing music or TV loudly all night. Maybe having staff there around the clock would help, but apparently they can’t afford that.
