    Pictures don’t do the property justice. Very comfortable and clean. Parking in the structure was very easy. If you are a foodie or a person that likes to be on the go, this is the perfect location. So many restaurants and places to see. We parked our car and did not need to move it all weekend. Target is a 5 minute walk that offers any necessities you may need during your stay. There is a full-size grocery store more of a walk, but there is so much to see, you don’t realize how far it is. Shopping up on King Street and visiting the Farmers Market was a perfect way to spend a Saturday morning and afternoon, not to mention the it’s Market across the street. You will not be disappointed in your stay at On the Market.

    No hot water in the bathroom sink. Parking was a little difficult because you have to double park to unload your bags run upstairs get a parking pass and then go park about three blocks away and walk all way back to the apartment. However, you are right across from the market easy access to a lot of restaurants and a lot of shopping and the apartment itself was very nice

    Lovely spot, cozy, and close to shopping, restaurants, and touristy sites. The parking is a bit awkward. The garage is a block or two away, so it requires stopping on busy Market Street to pick up or drop off the garage pass and then toting your luggage from the garage when you check in and then back to the garage when you check out. We recommend having only carry-on bags. Otherwise, everything was perfect!

    This property is in a great location- walking distance to most places in downtown Charleston. There was a mishap with the property not being clean by check in time- but the hosts were very responsive and made arrangements to have it taken care of right away. The property was very clean and had added touches like a kettle and snacks. The unit was a good size and had lots of big windows. It was a great place to be based while in Charleston.

    We really wanted to love this place. It wasn’t horrible by any means, it just could be way better with a few improvements. Pros- Host was responsive and prompt in communication. Even allowed us to check in one hour early. Also a perk that we could leave our luggage in the foyer before check in and out time to accommodate our next stop without hauling luggage all over the city. Bed is comfortable. Biggest pro is the location. It is truly in the heart of the city, we were able to walk everywhere. Cons- when pulling back comforter, hairs were in several places. The refrigerator has a foul smell. We bought a box of baking soda to place in it because everytime we opened it, the smell was overwhelming. Lighting in bathroom- two different shades of bulbs (cool and warm) 3rd bulb burnt out. Impossible to do makeup in mirror because lighting was so bad. Shower water pressure, non existent basically. The Keurig had no filter and was on the descale setting. The creamer they had available curdled immediately in coffee. Such a bummer to not be able to enjoy a decent cup of coffee before starting off on your adventures. Ceiling fan had a pound of dust on it. Ultimately, the place is very cute but needs a little TLC in terms of cleanliness and hospitality items.

    Room was exactly like the photos. Good value compared to some hotels in the area. Was nice to have a kitchenette. AC kept up with the hot days. Walkable distance to basically everything you'd want to see on the peninsula. There is nightime noise and light associated with being downtwon, but a good sleep mask and white noise app and we both slept great!

    This cute little place had every amenity we needed. It is in the ideal location downtown. Right across from the market and in walking distance to several nice restaurants and dowtown sights. Checking in was easy and the hosts gave very detailed instructions so that was helpful. Unloading is a little tricky to find a place to park--its a busy street--but once we got unloaded and parked in the parking garage we stayed put and didn't use our car again. The other little thing is the stairs leading up to the room--they are narrow and kind of steep. We were on a 10 day vacation so we had quite a few bags with us so hauling them up 2 flights of stairs was a little tricky. Overall a wonderful little gem in downtown. We felt safe and secure and would definitely stay there again.

    You can't beat this Vrbo for location. Charleston City Market is literally steps from your door! We also used the parking garage for our cycle, and it mostly stayed there as we walked to everything around town. The rooms are thoughtfully and tastefully decorated, I enjoyed the local art!
