The property was clean & had plenty of space for everyone. Great location. The kitchen has almost everything you need but no toaster & only 1 frying pan. The fridge is very large for plenty of food. The beds were all very comfortable. Being upstairs there was a concern about being too warm, but the air conditioning, fans, and blackout curtains kept everything cool. The host was responsive to questions as well. Definitely recommend staying here!

Comfortable and great location

We had a great stay! Comfortable beds and everything we needed for a couple days in Charleston. Only issue is that most of the doors do not stay closed without a separate latch; its an old house, so we get it. All in all, a great place.

Great Spot In Charleston!

Perfect spot for my Oklahoma friends and I to meet in a city they'd never experienced! This was a great location, close to King and we had plenty of room to spread out. A little difficult to get luggage up the narrow stairs and balcony was a little concerning, but we managed just fine and enjoyed our stay!

Great walkable neighborhood

Lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance of this rental. It was clean and spacious for a downtown rental. It was on the second floor and all rooms were on the same level. We had a large dining room table and were able to have a couple family members over for Thanksgiving meal. Rental comes with 2 parking spots and the was a parking lot around the corner on Ashley where you could pay to park. Great stay!

Needs a little TLC

Overall the place was great. I just wish the owners of these properties would visit and take care of the little imperfections that happen as the property ages and gets worn. A little paint, wash the rug, sweep the stairs and decking would go a long way to get you 5 stars. The back yard is not as pictured if you were to want to use it. I still recommend, I’d go back again!

Downtown charm

Our family of four stayed at this property for 3 nights. We had plans to have friends join us, but with travel they couldnt make it. The space is large enough for 2 families of 4. The livingroom couch was enough seating for just the 4 of us. We enjoyed a few meals at the very large diningroom table. When we first arrived we did have to call for some maintenance help, and the property management team was fast to respond to our messages, and a tech was at our door within 10 mins. The quickest response time. He took care of us and was pn his way shortly after. The building has charm and is within walking distance to everything we needed. Would stay again.

thanksgiving week

This is a very comfortable place, with a good location for us to visit Historic Charleston. We had a great time. The beds are comfortable. We used the large table as office space for 3 of us while we had to work a few days. The kitchen could be stock better with pans and other cooking tools. However, we managed with carry out service for Thanksgiving meal. We had cooler weather and the doors did not seal very well - but I think this comes with the age of the building. Otherwise, a good spot for our family 2021 Thanksgiving celebration. Owners were very responsive to our requests for more kitchen towels.

Hey Mark! Thanks for the review. We've completely re-stocked the kitchen, and always happy to deliver anything needed immediately! Sometimes we have guests that rent the entire home, and they carry kitchen equipment to one unit, leaving the other a bit lacking. I'm sorry we didn't catch that and thanks so much for the head's up!

Great management, ok house

We knew it was a historic home, which to me means charming imperfections. And there was that. But there was also just plain neglect. There was mold on the bathroom ceiling, dusty flower arrangements, the attic access had a board that was bowed so air & critters from the attic could easily pass thru. We did hear something large in the attic (maybe a squirrel) & reported it to mgmt who said they would address it as soon as we left. That was fine with us as we saw no sign of "wildlife" in our living area. The TP holder was rusty. None of the doors would close. And probably the greatest safety concern is that the downstairs residents could easily have come thru their back door & up our stairs. We have no door preventing their entry. We also had to park 2 houses away, which we were not told until the day before checkin. We r a large family with 6 teens so there were plenty of hands to carry what we needed, but if we had had young children it would have been rather inconvenient. It was also a noisy part of town, with very loud traffic. Having said all that, the mgmt was very responsive & polite. When the heat stopped working, they brought us extra space heaters promptly. They always answered every question within hours. And basic housekeeping was good. It's just that the owners of the home need to take their investment more seriously & make a few needed improvements before we would consider staying there again.

Vanessa, thanks so much for the review. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay in Charleston as well as the management of the property. This is a budget friendly rental but I do apologize for an inconveniences. What you listed out has been fixed for future travelers. Seems the teens in the group may have messed with the breaker causing the initial heat problem. All is now fixed and working without issue. Every door locks so your understanding for that was very incorrect. Come back soon we would be happy to host your large group.

Hot

I will start by saying, I do realize that we booked an old historic home that obviously will have some quirks and oddities. I did not expect anything to be new or newly built. I will also say that the communication with the owners was very good, and the house was clean.With that being said, we were pretty disappointed in how hot the house was. Charleston at the end of June is 1000 degrees, we were very aware of that. The AC in the home was marginal on a good day, and basically non existent in June. Two of the bedrooms had portable AC units and the main living area also had one. While they did keep the rooms cool, they were very loud all the time, as in zero quiet at any time. The bunk room only had a window unit and it was so hot my kids had to sleep on the couch. The AC did not work in the kitchen at all, so it was about 85 degrees or hotter, so it was not an option to stay in there for any length of time. The AC register in the ceiling in the bathroom constantly dripped water from the condensation. Again, I know this is an old house, but I do wish the portable AC units, window units, etc were discussed on the listing. We had to sit in our bedrooms when we were at the house to stay cool. What bothered me most about the trip was the host messaged me when we checked out to tell me they would leave me a five star review and if I had any issues with the house to message them privately and not post them publicly. Reviews are how we make our decisions, y’all deserve to know.
