Walking distance to King St. a bit of a longer walk to the French quarter but also easy to Uber. This unit is super old - but loved the character. Very clean. Bathroom is tight. Very charming.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this apartment. It was clean and comfortable. There were some lovely restaurants nearby. And even more on King Street, not far from the apartment. When I return to Charleston, I hope this apartment is available again,

We had such a great time here! We were able to walk downtown but also uber for a really fair price. The house was older but super cute, beds were comfy, and overall we had plenty of space. We had a great time!

It is what it is. The second floor of an ancient home that is being put to use as a short term rental. Awkward layout and uncomfortable furniture. Not a very welcoming piece of property. Good place to break a hip as the floors are uneven and even dangerous. I wouldn’t recommend this if you are a senior like me. But for the price, I’m not complaining. We made it work.

Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the location and that the home worked for you overall. Charleston’s historic homes definitely come with some unique quirks, including uneven floors and older layouts, but we certainly understand your concern about the flooring and safety, especially for older guests. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will make sure our team is aware so we can review the areas you mentioned. Thank you again for staying with us.

The historic home in Charleston was perfect for two nights. Walking distance to great reasturants and shopping. Short distance to the beautiful battery park area. It was furnished with everything we needed and parking was great.

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. The check in process was very easy and the home was clean and inviting. The walls were a little thin and you could hear the street around you but this is common for a house built in the 1830's. Thank you for having us!

Was great having off street parking! Communications with the owner was very good! Great having the upper floor for the privacy. A washer/dryer in the unit was super convenient. The location was perfect for our ceremony at MUSC. Great visit!

Place a lot older than pictures imply. Needs some work. Floors very uneven. Railings on stairs need to be strengthened. This place was fine for our needs, but older adults with balance issues would have a tough time

Thanks for staying with us and for your honest feedback. We’re glad the space worked for your visit overall. We aim to make our listings as accurate as possible so guests can make the best decision when booking. It is a historic home, and we do our best to balance upgrades while preserving its original character. Being a historic home does come with some quirks, including uneven floors and older features like stair railings. We really appreciate you pointing this out, and we’ll keep it in mind as we continue improving the space.
