    This was our first experience with an Airbnb. We loved the fact that it was very clean. Had all the amenities and more compared to a regular hotel room at a comparable price. It was like having a vacation home getaway. We were able to have the entire place to ourselves and relax as if it were our own apartment. Highly recommend.

    Guesthouse was amazing!!! I was a little apprehensive due to the lack of reviews, and also because of a Booking snafu, but their customer service (Guesthouse) is amazing and put my mind at ease. I spoke with Kerri who sent me all the emails and app that I needed before check in. Keyless entry, super clean, and great location. Parking is a bit tight, but you get used to it. Very easy to Uber or walk anywhere in Charleston. This was my friend's first time staying in a vacation rental and she had a great experience!
