    Excellent location. Host was responsive to questions. Only word of caution is tight spiral stairs to bedroom and only bath for those with mobility issues. Also mention to bring own toiletries as only soap available. Location outweighed all.

    Great location for enjoying restuarants and the Spoleto festival. The loft layout gave us nice room for spreading out. The bedroom loft did not allow for a king size bed, though, which is our preference. All in all, a nice setup.

    Great location right in the heart of the downtown area. SNOB restaurant was rec by host and across the street. Great food.We had noise one night all night - seems like there are a lot of bachelorette parties in the city and they apparently go all night. Bring ear plugs…

    Host promptly responded to questions prior to stay. The place was quaint, very clean and check-in with code was easy. As noted in description, bedroom and bath is on the upper level. Really appreciated a paid parking space as parking nearby was limited and expensive. It was a prime location and we could walk most everywhere we wanted to go. Would stay there again.

    With the government shutdown and announcement of a mandatory in flights across the country, we cancelled our airline tickets and drove from Missouri to Charleston...a little over 15 hours. Upon arrival between 4 and 5 pm...the loft was not cleaned after the last guests left. There were towels in a bag on the floor, trash in the kitchen, the bed was not made and still showed the outline of whoever laid in it last. We contacted the host via phone and vrbo message, and after waiting for 30 minutes or so reached out to VRBO. VRBO was not able to reach the host, but managed to keep us on the phone for nearly an hour...sent photos, etc only for them to tell us there is nothing they can really do...we essentially have to wait for the host to respond...whether it is hours or days. After the long drive...and uncleaned place...we were pretty upset. Not sure what all the vrbo fees are for if they can't help you when an issue arises. We eventually hung up the phone as they were completely useless...and we found another place to stay for the night where we had a clean bed and clean towels to use. The host send us a text that night around 9:30 pm after we were already in bed after all the driving. In Ashton's (the host) defense, he was very responsive the next morning and worked to get our reservation cancelled and refunded. We wish the place had been clean, or the host had been available...or at least that VRBO had been helpful in ANY way, I bet the place is normally very nice.

    We loved our stay. The decor is lovely. We had tons of space to really spread out. There were plenty of towels, and the kitchen was well equipped. There was a shared laundry room with machines that would both wash and dry your laundry. No switching machines to dry. The property has a beautiful courtyard. The location is excellent, with loads of restaurants and sights in easy walking distance.

    Location is great! Having only one bathroom which is upstairs is a little unhandy. Parking is a pretty good little walk which is also a negative. However, the great location makes up for a lot of the negatives.

    This property was so conveniently located. A very walkable area, but with many other activities, such as boat rides to many other attractions. Wonderful restaurants located within blocks. We were given all instructions and information prior to dates stayed.

    This is one of the best locations for a great price in Charleston! However, it might not be the best for more than 2 people but we made it work well.

    Great location for everything- just blocks from great restaurants, bars, parks and tourist attractions. Walking distance to just about everything you'll need to see or do. Accommodations were perfect. Second floor overlooking the courtyard with fully stocked kitchen, comfortable bed & bedding, cozy living room and charming decor. I would definitely recommend this location for a stay in beautiful Charleston.

    This condo is very close to all the great stuff in Charleston. It is a bit dated re interior decor and could use some fresh paint/clean up. The only negative is that there is virtually no sound insulation. When noisy guests come down the hall at 2am you can hear every word. And when they crank up the stereo/tv next door same deal. Still it's very close to all the good stuff and it has free parking.
