This was the most perfect place for our group of six girlfriends who love Charleston! The layout of the house was just what we needed and accommodated us perfectly. It was clean and well equipped. We are all walkers so it didn’t other us to walk to the city market area, but we did Uber back. So the location is good as there are several nearby restaurants, grocery and liquor stores.We did have an issue with the upstairs air conditioning unit and the shower drain in one of the bathrooms, but communication with the host was excellent and the issues were resolved promptly.All in all we were very pleased this this rental and will definitely stay here again!

We came to Charleston with three couples that have been best friends since high school for a fun kid free weekend and this property did not disappoint. It was close to all the restaurants and bars the decor and the comfort of the home was top-notch. I would highly recommend it as well as stay again.
