The 5 star deluxe studio has been lovingly restored to keep the elegance of yesteryear with all the modern luxuries and conveniences. The studio is charming, well appointed, private (only two studios in our building) and secure (multiple key less entry locks). A custom kitchenette is available in your room with a refrigerator, microwave, Keurig coffee maker, dishes and utensils. We provide soaps and towels, coffee, water and chocolates! You are sure to enjoy sweet dreams in our queen plush pillow top mattress dressed with 1800 (!) count linens.

Park your car (self-parking at a discounted rate is available in a covered and camera secured garage only one block from the suites) and never get back in it if dining in the many acclaimed restaurants, sightseeing, shopping, antiquing and discovering the splendor and beauty of Charleston is your goal.

Relax on our cozy slate patio or in the sitting area in the foyer, a great place to enjoy your morning coffee, a glass of wine, to read a book on Charleston or to catch up on your emails using our free WiFi.

Beautiful property in the ideal downtown location right across from the Historic Charleston City Market. Within walking distance to numerous restaurants, waterfront, parks, King Street shopping, Rainbow Row, etc. We will definitely stay there on our next trip to Charleston.

Could not have found a better location. The studio was so quiet it was surprising. We had everything we needed in the room. We walked almost everywhere other than a visit to a Plantation and a bus trip to the Food and Wine Fest. Would recommend this to anyone.

Great location & studio

The property is in a great location in the middle of everything. I enjoyed walking along the bay several times a day in addition to all the attractions, shops & restaurants. Most evenings I enjoyed a glass of wine on the quiet back porch. The studio was spacious and included everything I expected. I enjoyed the art displayed in the property.

Quaint Cottage Condo

Property is set in the heart of Charleston and we could not have asked for a better location! Literally walking distance to just about anywhere you will likely want to be in Charleston. The space is roomy with a small seating area, a nice kitchenette with a small fridge and coffee maker. Check in was so easy as the instructions we received were very detailed. Parking was right around the corner and it was a relief knowing we had a place to park as parking Charleston could otherwise have been challenging! We walked everywhere we went for the entire weekend and thoroughly enjoyed coming back to our quaint cottage on the third floor. We are eager to come back to visit Charleston and will definitely stay at this property again!

Beautiful Overall

Beautiful location, beautiful home, excellent communication w owner. Only gripe is that the TOO SOFT mattress we rolled into each other and woke up w back aches. Owner assured us that it a replacement would happen eventually. I spent the rest of the stay on the twin trundle bed. Though I had to remove the protective sheet, as it was covered w stains and dust. We paid a VERY substantial cleaning fee and would assume that would also apply to cleaning prior to our stay. Owners were pleasant and understanding, though no discussion of applying a reduced rate, for which we would have been grateful.

Fantastic Location

Room was exactly like the photos. Good value compared to some hotels in the area. Was nice to have a kitchenette. AC kept up with the hot days. Walkable distance to basically everything you'd want to see on the peninsula. There is nightime noise and light associated with being downtwon, but a good sleep mask and white noise app and we both slept great!

About the host

Hosted by Terri and Carl

Host profile image
While visiting the area in 1998 we fell in love with the charm of this historic city and its surroundings, the Southern hospitality and relaxed lifestyle and decided to move here and make it our home! We love it more each year.

Why they chose this property

The location is second to none! This is the VERY BEST location in downtown Charleston! We are immediately surrounded by lots of restaurants, shops and historical sites. Although we provide discounted parking at a nearby parking garage, you won't need a car to explore all that downtown had to offer as most everything is within easy walking distance.

What makes this property unique

Our building has 2 vacation rentals and a food retail on the ground floor only. Each vacation rental has its own floor.
There is a complimentary trolley that stops immediately in front of our building. Bike taxis and horse drawn carriages are a popular way of getting around and discovering Charleston's historic treasures and landmarks.
