Or overall opinion of this property is way overpriced. While it was adequate it was the single most bare bones and the most overpriced in the at least one dozen of the VRBOs we've stayed around the US. Luckily we didn't spend much time there.
Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 31 Jul, 2025
Kelly, I am glad you enjoyed your stay. Sorry to hear you thought it was overpriced. You visited during an extremely busy time of year which will affect the rate like any rental or hotel when there is demand. Downtown Charleston accommodations will be more costly than other parts of the town as well. Come back soon.

Great Location

We had a great time staying in the home with our 3 girls. The bed set up is great for a family of 5. Comfortable beds, location was great, and perfect little place for a weekend. Great big TV to watch the football games, and small little kitchen with everything you'd need. Looks just like the pictures.

Weekend stay

The location was decent. It was advertized as a family friendly spot. There were a ton of stairs making it difficult for small children. In my opinion it would be a great travel spot for a young couple just not for a family with some children Shower was tiny. Couch needed a good cleaning. Overall vive was cute.

Thank you for your feedback, Sara! We’re glad you appreciated the vibe of the place, but we’re sorry to hear about the challenges with the stairs and the shower.

Cute with lots of personality

The place was cute with a lot of personality. Unfortunately, there was a musty smell In the stair well and the downstairs carried some of that odor. It got better as we were there and we had AC running. Shower was very small and the way the shower head was placed made the bathroom wet. It was good location in regard to King Street but farther than realized to the market area near King Street. The bed was very comfortable and it was worth the money for sure. We loved Charleston and hope to come back and visit.

Hi Danna, thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the comfort of the bed and the location near King Street. We also appreciate you pointing out the musty smell—it’s common in historic homes like ours due to the age of the building and the nature of the materials used, but we always work to ensure that it doesn’t interfere with the guest experience. We’re glad the AC helped improve it during your stay. We also value your thoughts on the shower and will take a look at the layout to see if any improvements can be made. We’re so happy you loved Charleston and hope you’ll consider staying with us again in the future!
