This is a brand new listing to Airbnb and we chose to go with a color theme that led us to name this apartment the Blue Oasis. The original doors and transom windows are all painted a beautiful shade of blue called Quietude by Sherwin Williams and the bathroom and fireplace has a fresh coat of Mediterranean. The tiled basket weave mosaic floor in the bathroom is original with new beveled white subway wall tile. Brand new light fixtures throughout the apartment add a bit of class and elegance to the spaces. Bright new rugs in gorgeous shades of blues and patterns rest upon the newly refinished original white oak flooring. The kitchen has brand new white shaker style cabinets and quartz counter tops. The laundry room has brand new machines and a fun geometric floor tile pattern. We are totally in love with the window curtains in the living areas and the woven wood shades. This apartment gets a ton of natural light and lush green treetop views. Enjoy a cup of freshly ground coffee or a glass of wine out on your private screened porch that overlooks gorgeous Monroe Street or sit out back on the new shared patio and meet your neighbors from the apartment downstairs. This apartment also has a dedicated office space if your visit brings you here for work or school. There is so much to enjoy about this apartment, it's too much to list!

We live about 15 minutes away from the apartment and are accessible by the Airbnb app, phone or text during your stay.

This is a brand new listing to Airbnb and the neighborhood is situated close to USC (8 mins), Fort Jackson (10-15 mins), Williams Brice Stadium (6 mins), Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center (11 mins) and 5 Points (5 mins). You will see tons of walkers, joggers and cyclists in this neighborhood so feel free to lace up those sneaks and take a run or a leisurely stroll. This neighborhood is extremely quiet - except when there is college football on (you may hear a few cheers as we did when USC football beat Georgia a couple of weeks ago). Devine Street and Rosewood Drive restaurants, shopping and entertainment are extremely close to the apartment and there are many walkable options as well. Walgreens, CVS and Publix are located nearby, along with Whole Foods, EarthFare, Bi-Lo and Food Lion.

Uber and Lyft are the best options for getting around without your vehicle. Otherwise, there are options for groceries and dining within walking distance to the house.

This is an upstairs apartment and the downstairs unit will likely be rented during your stay as well. You may be able to hear footsteps, muffled voices and television sounds from the neighboring apartment. Quiet hours are from 10PM - 8AM every day.

Also, this is a 1940s apartment and the front and back staircases are a little steep - please take great care when going up and down.

We attended the Gamecocks/Clemson game and stayed at the Blue Oasis. It is perfectly located to get home from the game easily! Check-in was simple and communication was very prompt. We would certainly stay here again in the future.

First time doing any b&b and have to say this listing has made me a lifelong user. The house was clean, stocked, close to Ft Jackson and anything you needed. Quite neighborhood and comfortable.

We enjoyed our stay at the Homewood Blue Oasis. Clean, comfortable and convenient! My only complaint is that there was not enough of soap or coffee for our 5 day stay. Extra could be purchased - as a package with a lot of amenities from Homewood - but we ended up just buying extra necessities from the store, as it was much more economical! I would suggest bringing your own soap and hair products. Otherwise, it was a lovely!

This home is exactly as advertised, and a perfect gathering place for our family! Communication was excellent, and the location is convenient to everything. I grew up on this very street, and this was a wonderful blast from the past! We hope to get the opportunity to stay here again.
