Beautiful location - close to everything!
A group of 5 of us were in town to celebrate a 50th birthday. We loved the house and Jaime went above and beyond to accommodate us. The beds were so comfortable! We loved that they had shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the showers. The kitchen had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this property. My only hesitation would be for anyone 'of size' or with limited mobility staying upstairs. The spiral stairs were a bit of a challenge for a couple people in our group with ankle/knee issues. But there are plenty of beds and two full baths on the main floor which gives you lots of choices! We loved this spot and highly recommend staying here - it's clean, quiet, comfortable & close to everything!

Charleston Weekend with Friends
This place was perfect for our group of 7 girlfriends in town for the Charleston Wine and Food Festival. Walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the visitor's center where we caught our shuttle out to the Village. We enjoyed the courtyard and fire pits after a long day. I highly recommend to those looking for comfort, convenience and have the physical ability to climb stairs.

Great Location
Great location, just a block off of King St. Loads of local spots for coffee, happy hour or lunch/dinner. Walk to most areas easily. The accommodations are a bit small for 5 adults as the 4th bedroom is actually the living room. Plenty of outside seating. Washer/dryer and grill are shared with several other units. Would still book again.

Fun With Friends
We had plenty of space to sit around and chat which was our #1 goal. Kitchen was fabulous. Beds were a hit with great mattresses and sheets. A couple of things to note... 1. Light in bathroom in the murphy bed room doesn't work. pretty dark. 2. No lights on the front of the unit to mark our place so was very difficult to find it. Plus the "1" is missing in 178. 3. The sink in that same bathroom (as mentioned above) the water did not get hot. 4. The bathroom with the sink in the window upstairs needs a light. Hard to put on makeup. These are not deal breakers by any means but just thought you should know. We will still recommend this place to our friends and family.

A perfect girls trip!
There were seven of us and we all wanted to have our own beds to sleep in. There was plenty of rooms, beds, and bathrooms so we were able to hangout yet have our own spaces to get ready. It is a really cute place with a great porch to hang out in. it’s right on the heart of things so we often just walked to restaurants and shopping. it was totally safe and we were never nervous about walking back late at night. The contact person was extremely responsive and even accommodated us checking in early age checking out later! Great stay!

Pretty smooth process renting this property. The unit was nicely decorated and very clean. The pictures do it justice. Just be aware that there is one bedroom on the first floor and a Murphy bed in the living room. Two other bedrooms are up a spiral stair case. The two upstairs rooms have twin beds. And the bathrooms are tight. Amenities were perfect too. Oh and the outdoor space or piazza was great as well. Definitely recommend!

Lovely stay
We were 5 friends in a book club traveling together. The home was beautiful, very clean, with comfortable beds, and convenient to everything. Just one block off King Street, there are many restaurants and bars within a couple blocks. The historic area is only about 1 mile away-an easy walk or Lyft trip. There was some street noise, so bring ear plugs and/or make use of the 2 white noise machines. We enjoyed the piazza (porch) for coffee and tea in the mornings and loved Maya and The Grocery for dinner. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect charming home in downtown Charleston!
My five girlfriends and I were looking for a cute place to celebrate my 50th birthday. We wanted something nice and cozy, where we could all just hang out and chill. The house was so cute and exactly what we were looking for. The location was perfect! We walked to all the restaurants and shops and didn't feel at all unsafe. We had a few questions when we arrived and the property manager was quick to respond to our text messages and phone calls. The main living room had a sofa bed and a Murphy bed! The extra bathroom downstairs in the living room was gorgeous! Several of us girls enjoyed using that shower. It was beautiful. There is a small spiral staircase that leads to the upstairs bedrooms. It was a challenge getting our extra large suitcases up there but we managed to do so. Just wanted folks to be aware of that. The girls and I loved the house and will most likely stay here again when we come back. It was located is the perfect location.
