Great location!
Location near the market was ideal. We were touring the College of Charleston and this location gave us a great base near the market house and so many restaurants. Could easily walk up to campus. Had a fantastic dinner right around the corner at Pearlz and a fabulous breakfast at Harkin. The condo was pretty good. The stars I gave are for the location and the natural light in the condo. That said, the fold out couch bed was so uncomfortable and warped that it was unusable. When we unfolded it some belongings from previous renters fell out. Had to contact manager to get additional bedsheets as not enough were provided for the day bed and couch. As previously mentioned in other reviews, the water pressure for the toilet refill is terrible and management literally left a pitcher out for tenants to manually refill the toilet. For my teens it was embarrassing. And TBH it's kind of gross to spend this amount of money and have to refill the toilet tank manually. That said, the location and vibe of the space bump the stars up.

Crappy plumbing...great location. Two-and-a-half stars at $ the rate we paid/night
This property is inside a Blue Green Vacations time-share property. The East Bay Street location is quite good. One can walk the center city/historic district, including the Aquarium and most museums. Self parking is a block away. That's pricey at $2/hour, with an $18/overnight cap. But if one comes and goes, the $2/hour rate kicks in. Several times our daily parking ran $33+/day. Now the not-so-good. The bathroom plumbing is anemic...the cold water pressure is a trickle. Don't expect to flush the toilet more than twice an hour. The shower hot water is not "normal". To get a hot shower, one must position the control to "7 o'clock", not full-on to 6 o'clock. That took a call to Vacasa to figure out. Vacasa did send a maintenance team to replace a burned-out hallway bulb, and snake the bathroom drains. Or at least they snaked the bathroom sink. One will finish one's shower standing in two inches of soapy water, the shower drain empties that slowly. On check-out there were no garbage bins as stated, so I left the bag of garbage on top on the courtyard trash receptacle. The instructions in the unit said leave all the towels in one place. A later message said to also strip the bed. Whoops...missed that one. The unit has hallway stairs on the 2nd floor, so the luggage cart is only good for getting from the lobby to the 2nd floor. Not a big deal if your suitcase has wheels, I guess. At the /night (all-in after fees and taxes, but not including parking) it isn't a b
