Very quaint house in a perfect location. Views off the balconies were very nice. The bed was very comfortable with large bedrooms. We were all very happy with Circa 1785 and would stay there again if we travel to Beaumont SC in the future.

The property is nice, but I was disappointed with the room. The posts on the bed made it impossible to have a clear view of the television. There was no door on the bathroom door which made privacy impossible. The shower had no door which combined with no door on the bathroom made our showers freezing. The water pressure was also low making our entire shower experience poor. Once again, we were very disappointed with our stay.

I loved this property and process. However, they could use one extra towel rack for drying towels in the bathroom and chairs on the front porch to enjoy the sun in the afternoon. The bed was so comfy!!!! Other than that, it was really sweet! And the texts we got from the hospitality company were greatly appreciated!

Romantic Location for Anniversary Stay

Offering a romantic location for our one night anniversary stay in Beaufort, Circa 1785 ticked all the boxes. I am getting used to the style of this type of STR - in a home without any host. (At first, being an Airbnb host myself, I was put off but now appreciate this type of stay.) Particularly impressed with the clear communication at this property, and with the bountiful supply of amenities.

It was nice. It was geared more for older generation except that there was no elevator to access upstairs rooms.

AI hotel management? Not ready for prime time.

The experience at this 'self service' hotel would have been five stars across the board except for the fact that we would not provided with the codes for the front door or a room. Upon arrival, I had to call the company and was told that the appropriate person would respond within 60 seconds. This did not happen and we waited for 30-45 minutes for a reply When I emailed the company as directed if we had a problem, their mailbox was full. Just as we were preparing to leave in search of another hotel, an email with the codes arrived. Otherwise, the room was clean and freshly made up, there was an adequate supply of towels and our stay overall was quite pleasant, indeed much above average. I would book again, and hopefully by then the system will have been improved.

Nice place. Hope to be back. Just odd that we never met anyone that worked at circa 1785. Everything was remote. Which made it challenging when we had thermostat issues
