Mark, a good location does half the work of a trip, so it is nice to know it paid off for you. Being close to everything makes the place easy to settle into. You are welcome back whenever the area calls you again.

I would not stay here again. The unit was very unclean -a thick layer of dust on lamps and underneath the bed, a stain on the mattress pad for the small bed pull out, peeling paint on the ceiling in the bathroom and on the wall and a stray Hair in the sink that wasn’t either of ours. The unit is in a very touristed area with a fudge shop underneath it and T-shirt shops. Also the unit says there is a kitchen, but it’s really a kitchenette with a microwave no tea kettle. You’re also lots of codes that you have to remember to get into the place and out of it. It was disappointing because it was expensive. It’s basically a shopworn hotel room without any of the amenities that a hotel offers. Avoid it.

This is an excellent place to stay in downtown Charleston. It is so convenient to all shopping and restaurants . Charleston can be a little bit of a hard town to drive around in, but with this location you are so close that you can walk to everything. I thought the room decor was beautiful. Most of all though, it was extremely clean and the price is very reasonable with cost. We stayed in the upstairs apartment and opened the door out into the hallway where the other two chairs were to somewhat extend the room and have even more space. I love the fact that it was set up with almost a full kitchen. Communication with the host was also very good. I would highly recommend this place to stay, and will for sure be going back. Also, the air conditioning worked great because Charleston is very hot during this time of the year in september. We were comfortable the whole time we were there.

James, a comfortable bed, reliable AC, and easy parking are the practical details that let you actually enjoy a trip rather than think about logistics. The walkable location does the rest.

Lovely spot, cozy, and close to shopping, restaurants, and touristy sites. The parking is a bit awkward. The garage is a block or two away, so it requires stopping on busy Market Street to pick up or drop off the garage pass and then toting your luggage from the garage when you check in and then back to the garage when you check out. We recommend having only carry-on bags. Otherwise, everything was perfect!

This property is in a great location- walking distance to most places in downtown Charleston. There was a mishap with the property not being clean by check in time- but the hosts were very responsive and made arrangements to have it taken care of right away. The property was very clean and had added touches like a kettle and snacks. The unit was a good size and had lots of big windows. It was a great place to be based while in Charleston.
