Perfect Location
We planned a last minute trip to Charleston and were able to book this cozy cottage in the most perfect location! We were able to walk everywhere, restaurants on East Bay, the Battery and City Market. The bed was so comfortable and the courtyard was perfect for morning coffee and an evening glass of wine. The petite kitchen was suitable for a light breakfast just make sure you have patience while using the stove. Would definitely book again! Thanks for a great visit!

Quaint, historic, with great location
The good: Perfect spot for exploring historic Charleston. Very cozy and very historic cottage. Clean. Cool MCM kitchenette. Comfy bed. Cute old shower. Not so good: Street parking resulted in parking up to 3 blocks away, several times. Stairs were tight. This is definitely not a place for someone who cannot walk alot or climb a ladder-like stairway. Wifi was completely unreliable. Couldn't use the gas fireplace because it seemed to be leaking and caused a concerning smell. Person who "checked us in" would not respond to my call/texts.

Great location in the historic area of Charleston. We were lucky to have found this. You have to go up and down stairs between the living room and the bedroom/bathroom. Those who are stair challenged should find another place.

The location is awesome. I love history and the setting is right out of the 1700's with a few modern up grades, perfect for two people that like to walk around town and be in the center of old Charleston. The host were very accommodating. We will defiantly return for another visit.

Great Location
Wonderful little cottage in south of Broad historic district. Small kitchen and sitting room with fireplace downstairs and bed and bathroom upstairs. Off street parking. The cottage was originally the kitchen for the main house. Lovely private garden and courtyard to sit and relax. Hosts live in main house, so they are available if you need anything.
