I loved the aesthetic and comfort of this inn! I wish there was little bit more lighting in the room but otherwise I loved it! I thought the Christmas tree in parlor was such a lovely touch. I also really appreciate the help of the staff with letting me keep my bag in the parlor and working with me on my check out time! They were so helpful and responded so quickly! It’s a lovely and charming little place to stay and you really feel like you’re in the center of all the charm Charleston had to offer!

I would definitely stay here again. Convenient off street parking, quiet, and easily walkable to numerous places. The grab and go options were nice especially in the morning and returning after a long day.

My husband and I are Charleston natives, and we decided to do a stay-cation here for my birthday. This place is beautiful! We loved our room, we loved the common spaces, and there were some great amenities. A few things seemed overlooked. We booked the speakeasy room and looked forward to hanging out in the speakeasy. The stairs down to the speakeasy room seemed to be lubed or greased, we kept finding black grease stains on our hands and clothes after going up and down the stairs. The tv downstairs didn't work, we thought it was due to dead batteries. After we switched batteries (with batteries we had) and turned it on, the TV still did not work. It kinda ruined the vibe but not the whole stay. The breakfast was great, they provided homemade bacon, egg & cheese bagel sandwiches. Quaker Oatmeal and some granola bars were also available as well as lots of drink options. The nespresso machines in the common area as well as in our room were really great. Fresh fruit was advertised, but the only fruit available were two old tangerines. As someone who can't eat dairy, I checked ahead of time that food options for me would be available and was disappointed when they weren't. Overall, we loved this place. It was clean, had great amenities, we met some cool people, and it was a beautiful property. Some little things just seemed overlooked. We would definitely recommend it and stay here again!!

This location is absolutely amazing! Everything is designed to make our stay enjoyable. I gave 4 stars only because of the bedding—we had an uncomfortable night as the mattress seemed used and developed a noticeable dip, which made sleeping difficult. The pillows also weren’t to our liking.

This is a beautiful bed and breakfast. The house is so nice! Great feel of historical time period 1800s. There is everything you need. It is self serve more like an Air bnb. No staff or check in. Communication however was great and all very easy. Free parking nice and breakfast was good. Also loved Nespresso in the room! Easy walk to King St. Highly recommend this beautiful place!
