Location was perfect for anything happening downtown. Short walking distance to eat or shop. House was clean but could benefit from repairs to window coverings and furniture.There are 3 units attached to the address, but it wasn't specified as to which unit was rented. Never heard from property owner when messaged to find out, but thankfully figured it out on our own

We really enjoyed staying at your property last week. The location was perfect for easy access to the interstate and for traveling around the Charleston area. Parking was very convenient and all the home’s rooms were spacious and comfortable. Also having a full kitchen allowed us to prepare and enjoy our own home-cooked meals. The only concern we had during our stay was about the missing slats in the patio door blinds but overall we had a great time on our trip to WV.

Place was exactly as described. We were there for a volleyball tournament and the location could not have been any better. Loved the short walk to the convention center. We would definitely stay here again.

Heart of Charleston

Love the location especially if going to a concert or event at Charleston Civic Center. You can walk from the house! Home is a bit older, but reflected in the price. Very affordable

The location was ok. Instructions for entering the property were incomplete so we couldn’t get door opened. After two hours of trying to reach host we finally stumbled on to how to get the door opened. Not what we needed after a long day of travel.

Everything was wonderful. The only possible issue is that the couches needed a bit of repair. Probably done by prior guests. It was perfect for our business meetings! Thank you!

Great Stop Over One Night Stay

The unit was clean and ready to go for us. We stopped on our way down to Hilton Head and this was Ideal. This may sound strange, but they had the softest hand towels we have ever felt in our life - LOL! Sometimes it’s those little touches that make a difference. Thank you for a nice stay!

Nice, but dated property. Front porch light switch was broken when we arrived. Needs to be replaced. We were able to get it to turn off after fiddling with. It is a convenient property, but aging. Suited our needs for needing more than one bedroom. Equivalent to a 3 star hotel stay in my opinion.
