I stayed here for 10 days during lab immersion with one of my classmates and it was a great experience. We attend MUSC so being so close to campus was extremely convenient, it’s also next to a bunch of really cute shops and good places to eat. It was a little noisy since you are next to a hospital, but I kind of liked hearing the outside world instead of pure silence lol. 10/10 loved the cabin like cozy feel of the place and definitely recommend staying here! (:

Thank you so much for the awesome review! We’re glad the cozy, cabin-like feel and convenient location near MUSC made your 10-day stay a great experience. Being close to campus, cute shops, and great food is definitely a plus! We appreciate your understanding about the hospital noise and would love to host you again!

Home was clean, but just a bit older in person than photos revealed. Unit A is street facing, so can be loud with traffic at times starting around 7am. If you’re renting for just a place to rest at night

Checking in was super easy, driveway was slightly difficult to find but parking was a breeze. Clean, cool space. Dishwasher, washer/dryer included. The only negative wasn’t from the home, just the busy street/area outside! Being just down the street from the trauma center, I heard several helicopters throughout the nights I was there. But overall definitely worth the money, location was great. About a 30 minute walk to anywhere downtown you’d want to go. I would definitely stay again!

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the central location and found our team communicative throughout your stay. We’re sorry to hear the home did not fully meet your expectations. Our photos are professionally taken to accurately represent the property, though lighting and angles can sometimes make spaces appear different in person. As for the noise, being in such a walkable and vibrant area does mean there can occasionally be activity from neighboring guests and the surrounding neighborhood. We appreciate your comments and thank you for staying with us.
