Nice studio with balcony available for a morning coffee. Light from the street was a bit bright at night. We used eye masks, but some shades may be added to help future renters.

Great little place to stay. Clean and plenty of stuff like coffee, towels blankets, etc. it was just my wife and I, so perfect for us. Right across from market and able to walk anywhere you wanted. If you’re not able to climb stairs up one flight, this is not the place for you. We didn’t have a car, but didn’t need one. Plenty of places for eating and shopping and sightseeing.

We had a lovely stay in Charleston! The location was great being right across from the City Market and on the Carta bus line. Between walking and taking the bus, we were able to get around easily and enjoy the area. The hosts were very responsive and easy to get in touch with. It was a great visit!

Nicole, being steps from the City Market with the Carta line right there makes the whole city feel easy to navigate, and it sounds like you made the most of both. Hope Charleston pulls you back soon.

Unit was exactly as described. Outside traffic noise was not as bad as we thought it would be. Only issue which is not the property owners problem is the loading and unloading process. It’s simply that the location is right in the heart of downtown and streets are cramped and very busy with foot and vehicle traffic. Parking deck is only a block away and it felt safe. Location is perfect for exploring the area on foot so bring your walking shoes!

I am not sure about prices - this area is high. One thing to note , due to shutters on window, there is not total darkness. Not a big deal for us, but might be for some. Great location, perfect for 2!

This studio was perfect for my stay in Charleston. I was traveling alone and the apartment was conveniently located near everything I needed to do, I could walk to restaurants, my workshop, waterfront park, and the Harris teeter grocery store. I felt very safe here.

You won't find a better location in Charleston if you want to be right downtown. Literally across the street from the market. The place was cute, the bed was comfy, and we had all the amenities we needed. An issue with the internet was promptly resolved. I would love to stay here if we visit Charleston again. I loved that there restaurants just a few doors away on both sides of us.Note for light sleepers - this unit is in a business district so there are bright street lights outside the window and sometimes there are city workers getting things done when there are no people around.

This place is perfect if you're trying to be right in the heart of downtown and within walking distance of pretty much anything you want or need! Stepping out the front door, there's a Life Is Good shop to your left and a Black Dog shop to your right. Go a few more doors down, and you have sweets, clothing, ghost tours, the Charleston City Market, the best prime rib my husband has ever eaten (at TBONZ), a fantastic Turkish shop with the kindest shopkeepers we've met, and a One Of A Kind souvenir shop with some truly unique and fun pieces.The room itself is comfortable and well-equipped - I was honestly a little surprised to even find a dehumidifier in one of the cabinets! The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of storage for our items. We definitely want to come back here in the future!
