Amazing weekend getaway!
This was the perfect spot for our bachelorette party (group of 12) to stay for a long weekend. The hosts were extremely communicative and even brought us sheets for the pull-out sofas and extra towels when we called at midnight. Extremely clean, great location, quiet (aside from neighbors who were up late), and comfortable beds. Would highly recommend this place! I was at first nervous due to space constraints with a larger group, but it fit our needs very well and it was nice to have two separate areas for girls to get ready, hangout, cook, etc.

the BEST weekend!
13 of us came for a long weekend, and the house was perfect. It was close to everything. There was enough room for all of us to be in one spot but it was also nice to have both units to minus noise and accommodate everyone's routine. Can't wait to go back!

Wonderful house
This was a perfect house for my large group(12). The house was clean and very well decorated. The beds were comfortable and it was well stocked with glassware, dishes, etc. that you might need. The living rooms were a little smaller then they seemed in the pictures in the listing. For our group, the split apartments worked, but if you are looking for a large gathering room for a lot of people this set up would not work. The laarge parking lot behind the house was wonderful. My only complaint is there were not enough towels for the number of people in our group. We really enjoyed our stay.

Charming Charleston House
The house was quintessential Charleston with its porch and inside character. Couldn't recommend enough to people looking to spend a few days in Charleston. Comfortable beds and very clean house.

wonderful location
We enjoyed our first trip to Charleston in this darling house with the perfect location to do the things we wanted. We had a small issue with the key pad not working on the upstairs unit and the battery was replaced within the hour as well as our questions about extra table and chairs. The team was very responsive. Our only suggestion would be to reoutfit the kitchens with basic glassware as we ran short for the number of people we had with us. The upstairs/downstairs unit setups with 2 separate kitchens worked well for our early to bed group vs. the late nighters both in the evening and early mornings. The house is charming with plenty of parking and walking distance to several worthy restaurants.

Homey and comfortable inside, tons of parking outside
Cozy space that is well decorated to feel like a home. The apartment was a great balance of having updated effects while maintaining the feel of an older, well loved building - very tastefully done and comfortable. Classic Charleston porches are also a nice touch, as well as the huge parking area behind the building. This reservation was for both the downstairs and the upstairs apartments, which are completely separate units from one another; it would be nice if they were connected so that our group wasn't separated, but it's very easy to pop up or down via the exterior stairs, so not a problem. We would happily rent these apartments again! The Stay Duvet management company was also helpful, easy and quick to get in touch with.
