Property was welcoming! Beds super comfy, plenty of towels provided. Heat and A/C did the job. Enjoyed our stay very much. The property is in the most perfect location for walking to all the eateries, bars, shops… even a little food shack and wine bar right across the street. We will definitely be back. Thank you!!

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely historic apartment near King Street. It was very cold the week we were there but the Jessamine had everything we needed to stay cozy and comfortable. If it were warmer we would have definitely made use of the cute balcony space. We loved being able to walk to shops and restaurants.

The home was creatively decorated and filled with the needed essentials such as nice toiletries and a great washer and dryer. We liked the large balcony and convenience of walkability to several fantastic restaurants such as Chubby Fish, Vern’s, and Beautiful South. Our dog wished that there had been some near bye parks. Overall, I definitely recommend booking this downtown gem.

At night all the lights from outside shined thru! Maybe black out shades so it will be dark and there was a terrible sewer odor that would Come and Go from End of hall bathroom. It was very clean and cozy and perfect location for us!!

Very clean and charming historic pad with lots of character. A couple blocks from King St so it's very convenient to the night life without being right in the action. Street noise is definitely a thing, but this was no surprise based on the area and the host warned about it ahead of time. Parking is around the corner, which is a bit inconvenient, but having a dedicated spot is great. Be warned that entry involves a tall indoor staircase, but once in the rental, everything is on one floor. Host communicated easily and was very welcoming. No jumping through hoops with check-in or checkout.

Excellent location - walkable to many experiences. Hosts provided excellent dining recommendations ahead of our visit, many of which were just a block away. Easy and secure access to the apartment. Very clean and tidy with well-stocked kitchen and bath amenities. Hosts were extremely responsive and fixed a minor issue with one of the toilets right away.

The apartment itself was very cute and exactly what we needed for our group. The location was a little noisy at night with people leaving the bars and being loud in the streets at all hours of the night, and having single pane windows. The place was dusty and could use a top to bottom. Very close to King Street.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re pleased that the apartment met your group’s needs and that the location near King Street was convenient. While some city noise is unavoidable in downtown Charleston, the walkable location is a favorite among our guests. We apologize for the dust and have addressed this with our professional housekeeping team to ensure it doesn’t happen again. Thanks again!
