Is it nice to stay in downtown and not worried about fighting the traffic or trouble to find a parking space?

This 2-story historic Charleston apartment is in the heart of Charleston. It is close to everything. You walk or take a pedal cab to wherever you want to go. You will be in the middle of downtown Charleston with abundance of stores and eateries. City Market and Colonial Lake are only 5 mins. walking. This cute modest 500 sqft space consists of 1 bedroom, bath, kitchenette and modest living area.

The unit is located in one building that the front is the main home and your unit is the rear one.

The apartment is roughly the size of a studio, but split between two floors. If you have heard about tiny home, this unit is similar to a tiny home. On the first floor is kitchenette and a set of a folding table and stools for two people. The folding table has its own wheel so you can move it if you want . On the second floor, there is a modest living area where you can seat to savor your cup of coffee.

The kitchen area features a refrigerator, sink, microwave, and coffee maker and gas stove.

The bedroom has a queen bed, TV and closet. The bathroom has a shower and toilet. Please note that this cozy space is not suitable for people who are taller than 6 feet.

The nightly rate is priced accordingly to the current condition of the apartment (needs some paint, floor is old…). Location is the key and you have complimentary parking space (for standard size car) so please do not expect a higher end hotel stay experience. Charleston is diversified area and we are next to low and middle income housing.

Tips to get the optimal vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Charleston area area. Reserve your Charleston area vacation home in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Charleston area visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides have deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Begin by choosing potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. 1 Bedroom Apartment - Walk to King street - Free Parking has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before booking your home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must book a pet-friendly rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a wonderful stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• Record any issues with the property at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of problems.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
