Christmas Get Away
After a hustle and bustle with family the weekend before Christmas we got away just the two of us for some quiet quality time together. Charleston was the perfect spot and this quaint little place did the trick. The owners were very prompt and supplied quick informative responses. Check was easy and simple. I would recommend this place and we would stay there again. The bed was nice king bed with new comfortable mattress and bedding.

The house itself was very cute and well organized. Although space was at a premium, the space was well used. The rooftop deck was so nice in the evening. The kitchen was well stocked, and the house was very comfortable. The only thing keeping me from giving it a 5 star across the board was the location of the parking. The owners were very responsive to questions we had during our stay.

Walkable to restaurants and shopping! Was great size for my husband & I! We were able to bring our dog which was an added bonus! Really clean and comfortable. Also really enjoyed the upstairs rooftop patio. Kitchen is not set up for cooking big meals and the refrigerator is under counter but it worked for us!

Nice get away for two
It was perfect for what we needed for our stay. The bed and pillows were very clean and comfortable. It was secluded and away from the road enough it was nice to sit outside on the patio furniture and relax.

Great Location, Very Kind Management
This property was perfect for our stay in Charleston. It was a central location that let us walk to everything, and had parking which was a must because we drove there. If you’re looking to cook and have more home cooked meals, the kitchen leave a bit to be desired. It’s a mini fridge and the oven was difficult to use. But it’s a very nice space and great location. Also management was very responsive throughout.

Excellent, but….
We had an excellent stay. The property is in good location just a 5 minute walk from King St. and in close proximity to lots of great restaurants. The apartment was clean and nicely furnished. We only had 3 relatively minor complaints. The photos of the rooftop deck in the VRBO listing of the apartment show lights and cushions on the outdoor furniture, but neither was anywhere to be found. The outdoor furniture was very uncomfortable without cushions. We understand that the outdoor elements do a lot of damage to outdoor fabrics , but nonetheless, if you’re going to show outdoor seating cushions in the property photos, the property should have them, even if you keep them stored in a outdoor deck box when not in use. Another complaint we have is that there was no hot water in the upstairs bedroom sink and the water pressure was very weak, but only for that one sink. Water pressure for all of the other sinks and shower/tub was fine. Lastly, the upstairs bathroom sink drain was completely clogged, so much so, that I was forced to take apart the plumbing pipes under the drain, and pull out what looked like a years worth of hair and disgusting gunk. It only took me 10 minutes and afterwards the sink drained perfectly.

Great location, not so great for little ones
We loved the location of this property because we could walk a lot of places. The communication with the property manager was top notch prior to checkin. Our only complaint is that we wouldn’t stay here again with our kiddos (ages 3 and 1). The tub is very slippery and dangerous to try to bathe little kids. Additionally, there are no blinds/curtains on the door to the rooftop in the bedroom which made it so bright that our kids didn’t sleep well. Also, the rooftop has a railing missing which made it unsafe to use with kids that could fall through. Otherwise, great stay and if it were just adults it would be perfect.

Great location, quiet and well appointed
Loved the location - easy walk everywhere. Off street parking was helpful. When we were there there was construction across the courtyard, but beyond the control of the owner of course. Place is a bit small but super well arranged so feels bigger than it is - great for 2, maybe three people. Recently renovated, so all new appliances etc. Awesome roof deck. Definitely would stay again.

Our unit was clean and cozy. The bedroom is upstairs and if I have 1 critique it’s the bathtub, claw tub is beautiful but I was very concerned with climbing in and out of it. Otherwise we were one block off of King Street and walked to everything.

Good Bones, but needs upkeep
We enjoyed our stay in Charleston because it's Charleston and it's a wonderful city. This property has good bones but does not seem to have been cared for and did not feel clean with in the time of COVID you want. The pictures are generally accurate but the light over the stove is hanging down and held on by scotch tape, a drawer is broken and hanging crooked, the dryer latch is temperamental and one of the chairs on the rooftop patio is broken. There was also broken glass and cigarette butts on the roof. Overall I was just not impressed. The property manager did drop off some cleaning products for us at my request (hairs on tables, walls all scuffed up) but it took reminding. The neighborhood is close to upper King street (only 2-3 block walk). I never felt unsafe in the location but there are a lot of abandoned houses in the area including where you park (parking is about a block away from the house behind an abandoned, falling down house). Overall I think if they put in a little more effort maintaining the place it would be a lovely property.
