Shawn’s apartment is spotlessly clean, and beautifully decorated. It has everything you need on the kitchen and a washer and dryer if you have an extended stay. The bed in the master bedroom was really comfortable and both bedrooms were spacious. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.

6/10 Okay

Disliked: Cleanliness
This was not my clean at all. It definitely needed a deep cleaning. A lot of dust and dirt on walls, food in the chair cushions, dirty fans and food splatters on the kitchen cabinets. It served its purpose for us. The owner was easy to work with and the property was older but nice area. We did enjoy watching the alligators in the water. The screened in porch was nice in the mornings and evenings. Overall, it could use some tlc -

Great Place to Stay!

We spent 8 nights at this property. It was very clean and well, appointed. Everything we needed was there. Including an air-fryer. Beds are comfortable and the screen balcony was a real treat. I watched all the wildlife around the pond. Nicely, but simply decorated. Should be called the Orchid Retreat for the orchid theme throughout.

Well-priced and comfortable condo

Quiet property in a condo neighborhood in North Charleston. We appreciated that it was affordable for a four-night stay to see things in and around the Charleston area. Grocery store was close by. Other than a too-soft-for-me mattress, we were very pleased. Communication with owner/host was very good.

Beds were comfortable and screened in porch was very nice place to relax. This condo definitely needs an overhaul. Sliding door didn't lock and dishwasher didn't work. Communication with host was excellent.
