Incredibly good location one block from King St. Building and unit were very charming and felt like old school Charleston, which we appreciated vs. some really modern place. Place was clean and spacious and beds were very comfortable. Interaction with host was quick and very accommodating. Would definitely stay again.

Location, Location, Location! This was walking distance to so many great Charleston attractions. An old house in an old city made it a unique stay. Thank goodness for the luggage elevator otherwise the spiral stair case would have been too challenging. Plenty of room for our group 9 mostly "senior citizen" adults.

This house was perfect for our weekend getaway! The location of the house was perfect for our every need and want. Plenty of restaurants, shopping and things to do within walking distance. We absolutely loved sitting outside on the deck in the morning drinking our coffee and soaking up the sunshine. Would highly recommend staying here! The host was very easy to communicate with and always responded very quickly.

Location was convenient for walking around town. Apartment had a lot of cool art (for sale) hanging on the walls from the gallery below. Plenty of room and utilities. Bathrooms were clean and bedrooms had plenty of blankets and pillows. TV was a tad small for the living room but that's about it.

The location is unbeatable. The accommodations were very comfortable and well appointed for the 9 of us. My only complaint is the pots and pans were not conducive for cooking (very scratched Teflon) so we chose not to do any cooking, but plenty of great restaurants in walking distance.

Loved the location! Older, historic building within easy walking distance to all sites. Restaurants, coffee shops, King street and the City Market only a few blocks away. The luggage elevator did not always work so carrying luggage up/down the winding staircase was a challenge, especially if you are older. Suggest providing better instructions for using the elevator. Thoroughly enjoyed morning coffee on the large outdoor veranda!

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

We are located on the SE corner of Meeting and Queen Streets, in the historic French Quarter District in downtown Charleston, SC, within what was the old walled city. The land was part of a Colonial land grant in 1695. The present building dates to 1854. It has hosted a colorful array of occupants since then, including a 19th century grocery store, billiards saloon, BBQ restaurant, liquor store, law firm, art gallery, and present-day antiques store with residences above. Free parking on adjacent parking lot during non business hours.
In our family since 1968, we have transformed the second floor as a city-licensed luxury vacation rental, perfect for family reunions, group getaways, small business retreats, or wedding parties (the apartment is within 3 blocks of multiple famous churches and reception halls).
We have enjoyed many years of meals, cocktails, and good conversation on the piazza, admiring the view. Now it is time to share our home as your newfound home-away-from-home

What makes this property unique

We do provide a "starter kit" for each renter which includes: 4 toilet paper rolls,, 1 paper towel roll, hotel soaps for sinks, showers, bathtub, a small dish liquid and a sponge beside the kitchen sink, 3 dishwasher tablets, 2 dishtowels, 2 13-gallon kitchen trash can liners, and small 4-gal trash can liners for the small trash cans throughout the home

PARKING
You may notice there is a parking lot behind the house. This parking lot is owned by the City Of Charleston and is NOT to be used during your stay; it is for city officials. There is a sign located in the lot which states the hours that the lot is not being used for those offices if you need to use it during those off hours. However, IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THE HOURS YOU WILL BE TOWED AND YOU WILL BE FINED A MINIMUM OF $250.00 BY THE CITY.
Close by parking garages and lots are:
1. 85 Queen Street
2. 99 Queen Street
3. 159 Church Street
