Cutest Bed and Breakfast

Southern hospitality at its finest. I have been to Charleston several times and never knew this house was here. This was by far the nicest bunch of ladies who went of there way to make sure everyone is comfortable.

Best stay in Charleston

I will recommend this charming Inn to anyone visiting Charleston,. It is at the center of the main streets and walkable to all points of interest. The staff are exceptional. There is a tea time each day with beverages, snack, and wine. Each morning a delicious breakfast is served. It is refreshing to stay at a place in which the parking and breakfast are included.

Tim, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed the staff, the gourmet breakfast and the room. The breakfast host was delightful. The buildings were historic and beautiful. The location was convenient to shopping, restaurants and entertainment. One negative is the bathroom was a little beat up - the towel bars were hanging out of the wall, the shower tile was cracked as was the pedestal sink.
Jonathan J., 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful property from 1778! Breakfast was great as was the staff and the room Great location 1/2 block from all the shopping and restaurants on King St and an easy walk to the other restaurant area by Market St
MICHAEL, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great staff, lovely room and common areas. Breakfast was delicious and made to order. One block off King St. for shopping, and conveniently located to College of Charleston, the market and the riverfront. We walked everywhere! If there was a negative it would be that there is a large parking lot behind the property. Overall, an excellent value and stay!

Great location in the French quarter. Walking distance to most attractions. Breakfast from boxed items. No thrills, but good. Fruits, snacks, water and coffee available all the time. It's an old building, which fits in the atmosphere of the area.
