Very cozy. Close to shops and CofC. Bring ear plugs or head phones because you can hear neighbors above. Didn’t bother me, I came prepared.

Very responsive host. Great location. We walked everywhere we went in downtown including King Street, the market, rainbow row, and the battery. The assigned, offstreet parking was great.

We had a wonderful stay at the ‘Alcove’. The host was very good at communicating with us; the place was lovely, clean and so convenient to everything we wanted to do. All the amenities were great - comfortable bed, full kitchen with all the things we needed, etc. I definitely recommend it!

We had a great stay at The Alcove. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described, with a cozy atmosphere and a very comfortable king bed. The location was perfect - an easy walk to King Street and plenty of great restaurants and coffee shops nearby.The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive throughout our stay. Their communication before and during the trip made everything simple, and they were especially helpful with our early arrival. They let us drop off our bags and even brought them to the unit for us, which we really appreciated. Overall, the place was well-kept, had all the essentials, and made for a smooth, enjoyable trip. We’d definitely stay here again.
