Thank you Krista! We appreciate your review and would welcome you back anytime! Blue Skies, Team Duvet
Our family thoroughly enjoyed the Hampton Suite. The whole suite was spotless clean, the beds were very comfortable, and the full kitchen had all the amenities necessary for us. The location was right on King Street located close to everything we enjoyed. We had breakfast at Callie’s Hot Little biscuit which was right across the street, we love the steak at Halls Chophouse which was one block over, we also enjoyed El Jefe which is right across the street, and we bought momento pillows from Sewing Down South (Southern Charm show owner Craig) which is located downstairs. We will definitely stay here again.

Could have been cleaned a little better. The instructions on the air and heat unit was unclear. Maybe should have a paper printed out with instructions.
Perfect location, great unit with all the amenities, we will be back!

We stayed here for a bach party of 8 girls and it was just what we needed. We had plenty of space to hang in the living room and the location is unbeatable. I really appreciated the Stay Duvet team as they were always open via text for any questions.

My family and I had a great week at the Hampton Suite. The kitchen had everything we could need and more. The beds were super comfortable. We felt right at home. This will be our go-to place when we come into town to visit my daughter at school.
The rental was clean and comfortable. I was happy to have a parking spot. We left the car and walked everywhere. We enjoyed the location - great shops and restaurants close by. Even though it was a busy street, it was quiet inside.

We discovered a live bed bug on the bed within hours of arrival (photo attached). For health and safety reasons, we vacated the property that night and could not continue our stay. Despite clear photo and video evidence, the host refused to provide a full refund, offering only a partial amount. I’m sharing this to make others aware of our experience.

We are very sorry that your experience led you to end your stay and we wish you safe and comfortable travels in the future. Blue Skies, Stay Duvet
