Great rental for a couples getaway to Charleston. Clean, comfortable accommodations for two, short walk to King St., and a short drive to other area main attractions. On-site parking, heated pool and well kept grounds. Would definitely recommend this location!

Our stay

We loved the apartment! It was clean, had all we needed, and the bed was so comfortable!!! Along with that, the hosts were very responsive, and even gave us a late checkout. We found several restaurants and coffee shops in the neighborhood that we enjoyed.

This home is located in a great spot! Really convenient to walking all over Charleston. Really clean inside and some nice features that make it a perfect place to unwind after a long day of being out and about. If it had a walk in shower might stay forever. lol. Would for sure stay here again in the future!

Clean and good value

The unit is part of a multi-unit house, that shares amenities with another similar multi-unit house separated by a driveway. The unit was clean and well maintained, and offered off-street parking.

Nice rental!

Unit was very clean, pool was a nice break from the King St crowds. and there was wonderful communication with management company. The only reason I’m not giving it five stars is the walls are extremely thin- you could hear the most casual conversations from the units next door and above. If that wouldnt bother you, then this is the unit for you!

A lovely spot, near everything

This was a lovely unit, within walking distance of great restaurants and bars and all that Charleston has to offer. The place is clean, has a comfortable bed, and is easy to access. The only thing was that there's little to no insulation between the downstairs unit and the upstairs unit, so if you're a light sleeper, this may not be a good choice for you—especially if you're like us and had a group partying upstairs until the wee hours. Overall, though, very nice, and when we asked the managers to take care of the noise, they responded promptly.
