Great place!

The place was lovely and comfortable. It needs a new coffee pot. The bedroom door (with twin beds) wouldn’t close, and with all the available tv stations Fox News was not an option. Parking for loading & unloading was a challenge. Overall it was great.

We enjoyed staying here. The location was convenient to everything we wanted to do. The parking deck was also close. It was very hot so we did not use the outside area but it is spacious.

Great location and accommodation

We enjoyed everything about this property. It was so comfortable and in the middle of town, accessible to shopping, restaurants and bus stops. The only improvement would be a hand rail on the entrance steps and the 4 steps up to the 1st floor where we stayed. Otherwise, this is a perfect place to stay while visiting Charleston.

Amazing Property & Location

I arrived several hours before my family to unpack and get settled. When they arrived they could not believe the beautiful house was ours for the weekend. The location was perfect for family to come and go and easily meet up in the shopping or historic district. Perfect for a family of 4.

Will not stay here again

Overall: I would not stay in this unit again.Location: convenient shopping and restaurants. However, there is considerable noise from the street and nearby construction. This is particularly noticeable from the master bedroom which is adjacent to the street.Parking: for loading and unloading, there is metered parking along the street but was not easy to find. The parking deck is only a block away so it is relatively convenient.Privacy & Security is poor: the unit is in the same building as several other apartments. The veranda can be easily accessed from those apartments and on more than one occasion, someone left the building across the veranda leaving the street door unlocked. The host tried to address this with the tenants, but appeared to be unsuccessful. (There should be a more effective barrier on the veranda to prevent trespassing.) General maintenance: There are several examples that the maintenance of this unit is poor: soiled curtains, paint chipped from walls, cracked wall panels in the bathroom, leaky faucet in master bathroom, and smoke detector chirping.

Great Location and Property

Living and kitchen area is fabulous with all amenities you would need. The main bedroom is very spacious as well as the adjoining bathroom. The second bedroom is a bit smaller and its bathroom is smaller. A larger person (Me) finds it a bit tight in the shower. We stayed 3 nights. The free parking spot is in the Wentworth Street Garage accessible by walking through the Renaissance hotel driveway. Very easy to do. We walked everywhere we wanted to go with no trouble. I would stay here again. No one in our party of 4 is under 65 years old so we wanted a spot close to everything.
