Nice Place, Convenient Downtown Location
This self-contained unit was clean and well appointed. The convenient location in downtown Charleston is within walking distance to many nice restaurants. The host was responsive in addressing our requests. There are sirens and helicopters in the area, but this is to be expected due to proximity to the medical center. We would stay here again.

Delightful, Warm and Cozy
I was looking for the perfect place for a couple's weekend getaway. This was our first trip to Charleston. The cottage was the perfect blend of charm, location and coziness. Everything you need is provided. We had a delightful stay and highly recommend.
The location was great. We liked the two story layout!

Anniversary getaway
We enjoyed this property. It was beautiful inside. Appreciated the large kitchen, lovely living room, and a half bath on the first floor, as well as having the second floor with the full bath and large luxury bed. The laundry unit came and used as well.
Overall, the neighborhood was quiet in spite of being next to a parking lot. There was an occasional ambulance and helicopter noises due to the hospital nearby
We decided not to rent a car and walked pretty much everywhere with an occasional Uber Ride for things farther out.

A Lovely Place That Turned Bad
The cottage is very cozy and neat. The place was clean and very comfortable. The location was convenient, but with the hospital just down the street, expect at least a half dozen ambulances driving by every night and an occasional life flight helicopter.
Everything seemed good until one night when a Palmetto bug (huge cockroach) ran across the living room floor. Later that night, because I couldn't sleep, I found another one on the kitchen counter. The next day I asked that they have the place sprayed which they did. The thing that bothered me almost as much as the bugs was they never followed up to see if everything was okay. Maybe it's normal to have cockroaches in your place in SC, but we're from up north and it's not normal. Almost ruined our entire vacation. My wife wouldn't spend anytime downstairs for the remaining time there. We will likely never come back to Charleston, but if we do we won't be staying in any old cottages or homes.

Charleston, Spring Street
Unit was immaculate, well equipped, and updated. Reasonably located—about a fifteen minute walk to King Street and a half hour to the historic area.
Some ambulance and helicopter noise from nearby hospital, which was greater during the weekend.
Overall, the unit suited our needs well.

Great place! Location may not be for everyone
Great place to stay with one other person. Plenty of room and had everything we needed for our 4 day stay. The bed was comfy and the kitchen had all we needed for cooking at the place if we wanted to do so. The down side to this place is its location. It is right in the heart of the Medical University. Lots of sirens at all times of the day and life flight landing and taking off at least 4 times one morning when I was sitting on the balcony having coffee. It is so close you can feel the wind from the chopper when it comes in for landing. We didn't spend a ton of time at the house so it was minor but enough for me to mention it. You really don't hear much inside the house so it must be pretty well insulated. The property manager was very responsive so I would definitely use this company again but I would choose another location.
