The location was great for exploring Charleston and was a quiet week. It was clean and had just about every thing you need for an extended stay for a family. Hosts were gracious and thoughtful.

Kamilla, thank you so much for your kind review! We’re really glad you enjoyed the location and had a peaceful, quiet stay while exploring Charleston. It means a lot to hear the home was clean and well-equipped for your extended visit—that’s exactly what we aim for.
We truly appreciate your kind words about our hosting as well. It was a pleasure having you, and you’re always welcome back anytime!
Everything in this little house was just as described. The furnishings and decor were very nice. We fixed dinner two nights during our stay and the kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable. Getting into downtown Charleston was an easy 15-minute drive. Our host was quick to respond to any question we had. This is a great choice if you're going to be exploring the Charleston area.

Thank you for choosing Dundee Escape and for such a thoughtful review! I’m happy to hear you enjoyed the space, especially the kitchen and comfortable beds. It’s great to hear the location made exploring Charleston easy. Being close to downtown without being in the middle of everything is something we really value, so I’m glad it worked well for your trip. You were a wonderful guest—come back anytime!
Sally was very helpful and friendly. The house was exactly what we needed for our weekend in Charleston. Well equipped and close to the Convention Center.

Galen, it was a pleasure having you as a guest and we're glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
This was a gorgeous little house, beautifully decorated and well stocked. While on appearance, some might not like the neighborhood, we have lived in historic districts and felt right at home. The neighborhood was very quiet.We were down for my son's 21st birthday and had a very successful evening brewery hopping...there were many within just a couple miles. In the morning, we drove into Charleston itself and that too was a quick and easy commute.Highly recommend this lovely house as an affordable option in a pretty pricey destination. Owner was very friendly and helpful as well.

If I could only speak to one thing about this home it would be the beds. Honestly it was some of the best sleep I've had in a while, incredibly comfortable and clean... Luckily i can speak to more than just one thing: the home was comfortable for our movie night, the kitchen was a comfortable size (we wish we could've used it more), and the amenities (coffee/tea, tv/netflix/etc., washer and dryer) -- they were all convenient and useful. Thank you for this lovely stay, we wish we could've spent more time here.

Salomé, thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We're delighted to hear that you had such a comfortable and enjoyable stay, especially with the beds and amenities. It’s wonderful to know that our home provided a cozy space for your movie night and that you found everything convenient and useful. We’d love to host you again in the future—hopefully for a longer stay next time!
The house is clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The neighborhood was a bit sketchy. It did work out great for us. Felt a bit unsafe when we were getting home late. Really did not see the neighbors but the "Beware of Dog" signs were a bit alarming.

Dear Louise,
Thank you for your feedback, and we're delighted to hear that you found our home clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. We appreciate your comments regarding the neighborhood and want to assure you that our guests' comfort and safety are of utmost importance to us.
Our neighborhood, while it has its historical charm from the 1940s, is generally quiet and not prone to criminal activity. However, we understand your concerns about safety, especially when arriving home late. To address this, we have implemented several security measures, including outdoor cameras, an alarm system, and a door reinforcement device to deter any potential safety issues and provide peace of mind.
Additionally, we are currently in the process of procuring a privacy fence to further enhance the property and create a more secure environment for our guests. Your feedback helps us improve, and we look forward to welcoming you back for an even more enjoyable stay in the future.
Warm regards,
The Dundee Escape was perfect. So thoughtful and cozy. Everything was taken care of from the bed frames with outlets for easy charging, to the soap dispensers in the shower, to the cabinets filled with spices! It was super cozy. The beds were great. Such an easy check in process and Sally was amazing to communicate with. 10/10 recommend, we had a great stay!!
It was a 10 minute drive from downtown and you’re really close to the highway so it was easy to get everywhere! About 30 minutes from Folly Beach and 20 minutes from Mount Pleasant! Oh! And 10 minutes from the airport. The convenience was unmatched!
Unfortunately, my family and I never stayed overnight in the home as planned. First, we did not receive the correct check in information until an hour after check in time. As we neared the neighborhood, we noted people on the main roads in the medians approaching cars I assume either asking for money or offering services. A short walk from there, we enter the drive way, as we passed multiple dilapidated homes, including but not limited to the home surrounding this home in particular.
Upon entering the home, it was quickly noted it was warmer and not at a comfortable temp and that window AC units and fans were being utilized to attempt to cool the home. Upon exploring the home more, as you enter the bedroom portions of the home, there is an immediately noticeable strong smell of cigarette smoke that seems to moreso be an odor of the home, seeped into the walls and floors over years versus the smell of someone who just freshly smoked next to you if that makes sense. This is a distinct smell and not to be confused with other things such as cooking smells, though it was more noted away from the kitchen anyway.
Overall, the home is very small including very limited room in each of the bedrooms, the multiple window AC units and strong cigarette smoke small leave then even more safety concerns than what was already built in our minds from the quick drive into the home when surveying the neighborhood. Immediately, due to 2 of our children suffering from respiratory conditions, de

Thank you for your feedback. We strive to provide a welcoming and comfortable space for all our guests. I’m sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations.
We sincerely apologize for the late check-in details. As mentioned, the automated system did not send it, but I corrected as soon as I noticed.
Our neighborhood, though older, is filled with hardworking families and is conveniently located near a busy street and the interstate. It is not pedestrian friendly, but offers easy access to various areas of Charleston. As such, the neighborhood is not frequented by homeless individuals or panhandlers, as suggested in your review.
Once we received your message about the smell, I promptly let you know that neither my family nor our guests smoke, and I personally have a strong sensitivity to smoke and other scents. We offered to inspect the property, but unfortunately, we were not granted access by you to do so. In the rare cases where lingering smells arise, they are typically from cooking and not smoking.
When requested, we advised you to initiate the cancellation with VRBO. Instead you told the rep we agreed to a refund. In retaliation, you've added things to your review which are untrue; because it was denied.
Our home is a 1,000-square-foot, 3-bedroom space, which most guests find to be quite roomy and comfortable. The AC units in each bedroom and the open area provide ample cooling, even in the Charleston summer heat.
Again, thank you for your feedback.
Host was wonderful to work with. She was very communicative. Any concerns we had were responded to quite promptly. TV was great. Air conditioning was fabulous. Felt very roomy for our family of 3. Great stay and easy access to freeway.

At Dundee Escape with Holy City Stay, we really aim to create a space that feels relaxing, reliable, and easy for our guests, so I’m grateful you experienced that. You were an absolute pleasure to host, and I’d love to welcome you back anytime you're in the Charleston area!
