Charming location

The property was exactly what we needed. Great location where everything was either a short walk or drive away. Our bagel loving kids were excited to hear that we would be staying above a bagel shop. Not bothered by the street noise at all as that is to be expected when you’re staying in the city. Check-in and check-out went seamlessly. Not only would we stay there again, but we’ll be telling all our friends and family as well.

Great location for visiting downtown Charleston

The apartment is clean and handy to nearby restaurants and a free shuttle stop. The only irritation is that the bagel shop downstairs doesn't have a working closer on its front door, so the door bangs from 7am on when it's open and echoes through the apartment. The bagels and coffee however are delicious! Please get them to fix their door!

Great location

The property had easy access to everything within 10-20 minutes depending where you wanted to go. A lot of great restaurants all within walking distance. Communication with the owners was great. We didn’t have sheets for the pullout couch and they had someone drop them off immediately for us. Full kitchen and all towels. Only downfall was We did have to buy TP as only 2 rolls were there and you can hear everything outside. There isn’t a noise barrier to the sheet since it’s an older building so as long as you don’t mind it’s great. Holy bagel is right below and had some great options for food

Thanks for the heads-up about the building’s charm and character—we know it comes with a bit of street noise, and we appreciate your understanding. Hope to host you again soon!
