Very cool historic property. Walking distance to lots of entertainment. Self-serve breakfast was convenient for people in a hurry.

We loved this hotel and its location to king street. That bikes were so fun to ride around town and that is mainly how we got around was using their bikes or walking. Thank you for the drinks and breakfast foods provided! This was such a lovely stay we will be back.

Great location, minimal breakfast items. We had "basic" room downstairs and it was not very quiet both from folks coming and going inside the property and external noise from vehicles and construction equipment. Met our needs and price points. Parking on property is a plus and proximity to MUSC Hospital is great. Comfortable bed and nice bathroom.

Charming Inn
My room was a well furnished suite with a very comfortable king bed. There was plenty of room to spread out and a welcoming common area downstairs with lots seating inside, and on the porch.

Breakfast was convenient and great for me, but many people might find it minimal. The overall place was nice. The room had a nice size bed (king) but the mattress needs to be replaced. Great access to an upstairs shared porch. The bathroom was nice but small. It was difficult to adjust the heat. Parking was great for small cars. Overall good experience in a historic building.

Room was clean and comfortable. Off-street parking was a big bonus. BEWARE: I missed any mention in the reservation process that there was no elevator. Our room turned out to be on the third floor and the stairs from 2nd to 3rd floor is quite steep and narrow.

Stayed at this beautiful B&B for nights, loved the straight forward but fresh filled bagel and yoghurt options for breakfast, also the available drinks and snacks. Was lucky to have gorgeous weather and enjoy our breakfast on the wrap around porch. The neighborhood was safe and friendly. Accommodation prob 10-15 min walk from downtown but we easily booked Ubers, the on site parking was great meaning we could easily access our car and also get onto the interstates to visit further afield. Only gripe was our room was a little bit dark sine brighter lighting would make some tasks easier for those of us without 20/20 vision.

Cozy Charleston Getaway
By far the best place ive stayed in a while. The area was clean and quiet. Self check in process was easy. The bike rental concept was great. I enjoyed exploring Charleston on a bike. Breakfast offered was simple and accommodating.
