Hi Jesus! We are happy to hear that you made the most of the location of our property, it truly can't be beat! We would love to host you again soon!
Many years ago I visited Charleston with a few friends. We didn’t stay long and I have always wanted to come back. This time it was with my husband. We had a wonderful time. The location and comfort of this lovely condo were just what we needed. Highly recommend and would stay again.
Went for daughter's bday, lots of shopping and eating. Great location to walk everywhere. Had package delivered to office and they brought it right over.
Great condo on the best street in Charleston. Walk to restaurants, shops, parks and the waterfront
Recommend for a small family or two couples. Listing matches reality. Perfect location walkable to restaurants, shopping and waterfront.

Loves this place!! The apartment is conveniently located on King Street within walking distance to restaurants, shopping, etc. Check in/ checkout was super easy and the texts letting us know if the owners could help in anyway were great. Definitely would stay here again.
Great place. Would have been nice to have at least a 4-pack of toilet paper.

Thank you for your feedback Wendy and we are glad that you had a great stay with us! We provide a "starter amount" of amenities for each home and the items and the amount of each are listed in the "pre-arrival" emails that are sent out prior to you stay for planning purposes! We apologize for any confusion on this, however, and we will look into ways to make this information more clear to guests!
Great property. Close to everything Charleston has to offer. We walked almost everywhere. The place was clean and comfortable and would definitely stay again when we return.
My wife and I stayed here for a week. I lived in Charleston for 12 years and this place will have you enjoy the city. It has everything walking distance Highly recommend.
This property was absolutely perfect for our 4-person gals trip to Charleston. Located right by all of the shops, restaurants, and bars we wanted to go to, we didn’t have to get into an Uber a single time over the weekend. Check in and check out process was an absolute breeze and the apartment had all the space we needed, including one parking spot right out back. Five stars all around, highly recommend!!

We really enjoyed the apartment, its location, the Parking Spot! Walked everywhere and also hired the pedi-cabs on the corner for longer distances. Smooth check-in, great communication, everything needed for an enjoyable extended weekend or longer. Don’t hesitate to book here.
