Well appointed and comfortable 2nd story unit
Loved this place. Well appointed, great linens and towels, pillows, etc. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Great for a family of 4. We loved the location and parking (we never moved the car for our 2 night stay) - we did Uber with the rain and loved renting Lime bikes to ride back one day - super quick. It was quiet and quaint.

Charming
The apartment was very eclectic and charming. We enjoyed our stay! The host was very communicative and able to answer all of our questions . The checkin and checkout processes were super easy. Some things looked like they could have been a little cleaner (like toothbrush holders& washer), and we could have used more Towels/washcloths). Otherwise we felt like we had everything we needed and a comfortable place to stay. The neighborhood was nice and had a coffee shop and liquor store close by. We would recommend!

Half the house leaned significantly and gave it its unique feel.The renovation looked tremendous from what it as to what it became. I would have loved to know the house’s history.Close to all our touring and adventures.

Hilton ahead stay
Quiet neighborhood, nice house. We enjoyed the pool. Furnishings could use updating and cookware needs to be replaced. It would have been helpful to know we were to provide toilet tissue and trash bags. We also would have liked to know the bedroom for 4 is in a detached part of the house.

Delightful
My husband and I who lived in the Charleston area for many years, returned for a week’s visit. This spot is perfect. First, it is just as lovely as the photos. Nor surprises. It is in an ideal location because it is on the Peninsula (downtown) without being in the center with all the tourist traffic. It is in a neighborhood with an idyllic coffee shot just around the corner. We hope to stay here on our next visit.
