Summary:

Delight in the old-world elegance of this charming suite within a historic brick-built home. With its stately fireplace, wrought-iron bed, and vivid hardwood floors, the room evokes a vibrant, yet restful atmosphere.

The house is a traditional Charleston single house built in 1852. It has been renovated but still remains its historical charm.

The home is set in Cannonborough-Elliotborough, one block from the Medical University of South Carolina. Vibrant restaurants, bars, and shops along King Street are a 10-minute walk away. The Mace Brown Museum of Natural History is steps away.

Very cute room with very convenient parking. The communication from the host was great! Only note is that the Inn and surround area is very loud. We could hear movement from other residents easily and also were woken up early by street cleaning or sirens both nights. The location was great and very walkable.

This was great and accessible by walking to major areas of town while feeling very safe. The only issue we had is that the water from the shower/water closet leaks out a bit into the room when you bathe but we just put down some extra towels to solve that!

Lovely room in beautifully restored house with great bed and AC. 10 minute walk to Holey Bagels (the best breakfast sandwiches!) and another 10 to King Street. If you have a car, there is plenty of public parking so easy to just drive to waterfront park or aquarium. We had a wonderful time and Karen was an excellent host!!

The stay was okay for maybe --2 nights. Any longer, the tiny shower / commode combo became a bit much. You have to master that whole situation. The room was as described. I would add a comfortable chair for seating. The bench seating is not suitable.

The room was super cute, clean, and welcoming! There were snacks, towels, robes, and a free parking spot provided. The bathroom is a small wet room but for a short weekend stay it was no problem at all. Since it is an “inn” you can hear other tenants walking around and sometimes talking. The host was very welcoming and responsive!

The room was amazing and fit our needs. We appreciated the welcome wine Karen our host was a blessing to deal with and always was prompt with a response. The parking was a little tight, but we were able to manage it with no difficulties. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Charleston at the parson Inn.

Southern Charm

My daughter and I stayed at this charming suite over the Mother's Day weekend and couldn't have been more pleased with the accommodations! Its checks all the boxes: convenience, comfort, hospitality, communication with the host, value, etc. Located within easy walking distance to the city's King Street with its bars, shops and restaurants, the suite sported tasteful and welcoming furnishings, super comfortable bed, and clean linens. Additional extras like robes, house slippers, and a bottle of wine were like icing on the cake! Thank you, Karen, for hosting us! I would definitely recommend her property for your Charleston stay!
