  I truly enjoyed the location. It is about a mile walk to downtown, or you can take the free trolley. There are a good number of restuarants within two blocks that are excellent, and well worth eating at whether you want local fare, italian, Mexican, even sushi. Easy access to the freeway, and quick drive downtown to market street if you'd prefer to drive. King Street is about six blocks down for even more food and shopping options. The offstreet parking had plenty of room. The beds were very comfotable. The kitchen is small, but usable. Could use a couple more pots and pans, but that's all. There was cable tv and wi-fi internet which worked throughout the apartment. I would suggest light sleepers take the back bedroom, as some of the traffic noise can be loud in the front bedroom, but I slept in the front myself, and only had an issue when drivers felt the need to honk. There was a detour that sent a lot more rush hour traffic on the road than normal, and according to the locals, it should be done shortly. Runners - make sure you run the Ravenel Bridge. Great workout. 6 mile run to the top of the bridge and back...and easy to follow.

  One of my friends and I stayed here for a weekend trip to Charleston. It was a really cute, cozy place to stay while we were out exploring the town. It is the upstairs apt of a two-story "single house" (something I learned about when I was there!) and has its own piazza/porch that faces the house next door, not the street. The two bedrooms at separate ends of the apt were perfect for us to have our own space when we wanted it and we also appreciated the wi-fi. The location of the apt is very close to several yummy restaurants, which we took advantage of the first night we got there. We went to the Hominy Grill and were able to get a table quickly without having reservations. The house is also a short walk to King Street, which is filled with shops and restaurants all the way down to downtown. The owner left us a lot of information and a lovely welcome note, but overall was very hands-off. There was also a downstairs occupant with a dog, if that makes a difference to you. Overall, really enjoyed it : )

  Owner response: We are so happy to have had so many wonderful guests during the past year. We live close by and are always happy to provide any additional items or information a quest might need. Charleston sells itself and our little apartment in this 1830's single style home is clean, convenient, and there's always a nice breeze on the porch.

  We have stayed in many homeaway properties and this has to be one of our favorites. We had an amazing time and the apartment fit all of our needs plus more. We loved the area and we liked being able to walk everywhere we went. The river market area is a little hike but there are free trollies that run and the pick up spot is right down the street. If you like a quiet morning drinking coffee and reading, the outdoor porch is a perfect spot. Lois, you were a fantastic host and we loved the maps with restaurants highlighted for us. We definitely used that as our guide to eat our way through Charleston. We want to thank you for such a great weekend and highly recommend this apartment to anyone who needs a quiet getaway or just loves the Charleston architecture and charm... you will find it all here.

  This spot was just the right place to stay. The space is very clean and comfortable. You will love the outdoor space on the porch. The bedrooms are plenty big, the kitchen has everything you would need and the living room/dining room is a comfy space to relax, eat and gather. The location is just a block away from some really cool restaurants, wine bar and close to King Street.
