Summary:

Welcome to your perfect urban retreat! This spacious, stylish 1-bedroom apartment sits right in the heart of town—steps from the city’s best restaurants, bars, and shops.

Great place. Walking distance from everything! About a mile from Charleston market and all the amenities around there! Bed was comfy, plenty of room for 2 people, kitchen had everything you would need. Easy and quick responses from the management team. We absolutely LOVED this place and our trip. Highly recommend!

My husband and I stayed here with our toddler and it was perfect. It was small, which worked for us, but I wouldn’t stay here with more than a couple and a young child. Everything was within a 30 minute walk, so the location was ideal for us. Two off-street parking spots were available right in front of the unit, though we didn’t need them. The hosts were incredibly responsive. The toilet clogged our first morning and they answered my message right away. It was fixed before we got back from sight seeing that afternoon.

Weekend in Charelston

Communication with property company was excellent! Bed was extremely comfortable and we loved the noise machine in the bedroom. Stocked kitchen although we didn’t use too much of it. Nice that they provided coffee pods for us and also a bottle of wine. We appreciated that.

First time VRBO user

The stay was great! The place was warm and welcoming as soon as we got there. Initially, someone was parked in our spot and the shower wouldn’t get warm, but I communicated with the property manager over text and both issues were quickly resolved with quick communication on their part. Loved being right off of King Street and having the cute little porch to chill out on in the mornings with coffee and a good book. The unit is on the lower level and so we could hear the people above, but it wasn’t really an issue for us, but it may be for light sleepers.

You can’t beat the location! Though the space is smaller than it appears, it really was all we needed for a wedding in Charleston. We were also able to check in early which was great so we could go out and start exploring. Highly recommend!

Cute condo in prime location!

This condo was exactly what we needed for a weekend girls trip. The space was quaint and had everything you could possibly need. The bed was very comfortable and they even greeted us with a bottle of wine - how sweet! Location was walkable to shops, bars and restaurants. Only con was that it was pretty loud at night due to street traffic and people walking by but they equipped the room with a noise machine which was helpful. I’d definitely recommend!
