The staff was lovely. We got there at the last minute and were leaving early. Since breakfast was at 8 and we would be gone already they provided us with some pastries and set us up with instructions for coffee. I would go back.

Ken, United States of America

The rooms are fabulous, the position of the house is perfect for walking around the old district, close to bars and restaurants, an easy 10 mins walk to the Battery. It is a great location, just off the well beaten path. Sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine - FAB!!!!!

Philip, United States of America

Porch provided some relaxing time Staff recommended a good restaurant for lunch

Harvey, United States of America

Rooms were nicely appointed though the bathroom was very small. The home itself was beautiful. The location was good, away from the central part of the city so quiet at night.

John, United States of America

Nice, clean, well-appointed and spacious room with fireplace and comfortable bed, off-street (but very compact) parking. Has the potential to be a very good B&B, but is falling short, being overpriced and unattended.

Arthur, United States of America

Room was large and B&B was walking distance to a lot of restaurants. Lauren was friendly and helpful.

Victor, United States of America

The historic flavor of the B and B and the quaintness of our room. There were two TV's available in the ante room and the bedroom.

Robert, United States of America

Location was within walking distance of King street and ability to park. Nice old house. Room was a good size with comfortable bed.

Mary, United States of America

Great location! Easy to walk to dinner and attractions.

Michael, United States of America

This is clearly NOT a bed and breakfast. The Innkeeper was rarely available and this location was NOT in the historic district of Charleston but the medical district which is a considerable walking distance to King St. and Meeting St.

What Travelers Love About This Location

“Loved this place so much! The Inn keeper was so kind and really helpful. The breakfast was absolutely amazing and the bed and room itself was really comfortable. We walked into downtown Charlestown which we didn't mind, if you don't like walking then it is a little far out. But it was affordable for us and worth every dollar! I recommend this to everyone!”

눉The room was by the noisy street and the bed softer then a good bed should be. The “Breakfast” was a muffin and croissant but not even juice. It was old furniture but not antiques. Most are stained or damaged. The baths were tiny. I looked in rooms as doors were left open since the operator was not there either day or night. You could barely put a toilet in at one side and shower the other and still turn around. It was more like a rooming house dressed up some. Never been to a B & B and no one is there - especially at night - and no one to help if you need it. Just have to leave recorded messages.
눇Really we went to see the historic district but you can’t walk there from the house. Too far but good if you are visiting the medical school.

눉It is almost impossible to reach anyone prior for questions on Charleston or the Inn. I found out why after arriving. No one is there during your stay! The keys are just left for you, there is no one there at night or day but in the morning the owner arrives to collect. The furniture is an attempt to use antiques but they are mismatched and in disrepair (not the beds though). It is definitely NOT a place to stay if you wish to be near the historic district to do or see things. Almost 1.5 miles to this area and not walkable.
눇Very convenient to UMSC

눉Showering is important to most travelers. Room one is lovely and I wasn't disappointed to find the bathroom cupboard sized. When I turned the water on and the hot setting was ice cold it occurs to me some handyman connected the pipes to the mixing valve backwards. Still I was ok with this peculiarity but when I turned it to cold I expected to get hot and only got almost warm. The sink had hot so it wasn't a supply problem but rather an equipment problem. Because this is the kind of thing that is fixable I'm surprised it exists. Everthing else was expected and lovely.
눇The staff was lovely. We got there at the last minute and were leaving early. Since breakfast was at 8 and we would be gone already they provided us with some pastries and set us up with instructions for coffee. I would go back.

“Overpriced self-service Bed & (continental) Breakfast--would have preferred a comfortable hotel.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Room 1, Queen Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉Disappointing compared with the superior stay I had the night before at much less expensive and much more personable B&B in Savannah. Unattended (check yourself in via an envelope in the mail box with a key and an unwelcoming page of instructions), self-service facility literally on the outermost edge of the historic district (faces medical center across a busy street). A self-serve continental breakfast (although high quality rolls and fruit) not what you would expect at this price. I was there on a cool day, but noticed there was no controllable AC for the room, which faced the noisy street (and near to a very noisy wedding venue). Bathroom appeared to be a very small converted closet, but clean and sufficient. Outdated fliers on a rack stated, "Known for it's hearty full breakfast." The Cannonboro Inn is "a place to be pampered with very special Southern Hospitality. . . . warm and professional service." These were the good old days.
눇Nice, clean, well-appointed and spacious room with fireplace and comfortable bed, off-street (but very compact) parking. Has the potential to be a very good B&B, but is falling short, being overpriced and unattended.
