Convenient location. Walking distance to a cute little breakfast spot and a few nice restaurants. Easy walk to king street. Unit was clean and well equipped. The only complaint was noise from the street. Loud parties walking by the windows late at night, and construction that starts in the morning made sleeping a bit challenging. The construction will hopefully end soon, but it was a loud corner if you’re a light sleeper.

It was a great, clean comfortable place to stay. Though it was not a huge issue, the one thing that could be an issue for some, the one bedroom is on the front of the unit and is right next to the sidewalk. On Friday evening, Halloween, the street noise was fairly loud in that front bedroom.

Better than expected

Overall very nice place . As I arrived, I was first worried about the overall neighborhood. Then after going in the unit I was happy. The proximity to the food and beverage scene was amazing. I was staying with my brother. He thought the place was perfect. The location is fantastic. We then found by walking the neighborhood had a lot to offer. More restaurants tucked away in the quaint neighborhood. The Downtown Social was 1st place we visited and from the roof deck we could see our house. We were very pleased with the Rooms and the courtyard was a bonus for morning coffee and late night wine. I would highly recommend this place and would stay there again.

Loved our Stay Here!

Our stay here was overall very good. The space was very clean and organized and it provided almost everything we needed! This place does not have a water dispenser or a Brita water filter, so I recommend bringing bottle waters or picking some up on the way! Our host was quick to respond with any questions we had and the location was perfect. Beautiful place, I will definitely be returning:)

Great Time at 42A Spring Street

I joined my 16 year old daughter and her friend for a quick Charleston getaway prior to school starting for the new year. The property was just as advertised with everything we needed for two nights. We enjoyed walking to several local coffee/b-fast places, and the location just off King Street made it super convenient for shopping and bumping around. If you're headed downtown to East Bay street, you can count on about a 30 minute walk. We'd welcome an opportunity to come back in the future.

Easter Visit

The house was wonderful. If i had any issues we wish the furniture was a little better. There was no were for four adults to sit and talk and play card games. The to chairs were very uncomfortable. And the bar stools were the same in the dining nook. Other than that the house was in a perfect location, parking was great. Hope to visit again.
