We loved staying here. Two recommendations. Let guests know about the steep stairs up to apartment. And the cleaning products have a very strong, toxic smell.Took two days for it to fade.

Two friends and I wanted something special for celebrating our eighth decade on earth. This apartment and it’s location in a beautiful city “fit the bill” for us.
The apartment was just as described, spacious, historic, even elegant. We were able to have breakfast there to prepare us for our busy days. We got excellent sleep in our big comfortable beds.

We loved staying right downtown Charleston so close to so many sights and amazing restaurants. The property was clean and comfortable and the location allowed us to park once and walk almost everywhere.

We were so pleased with our girls trip to Charleston! Within walking distance to all attractions & fabulous restaurants, this VRBO was very comfortable for 4 ladies with a full kitchen. The owner was accessible for any questions or issues, but we had no problems. The beds were great & the living area comfortable. I would highly recommend it for a couples or girls get away. Many thanks, Jackie

Stayed in Charleston for a 5 day family destination wedding. This location is perfect for walking/strolling to shops, bars, restaurants, sights. Anything else is a short Uber ride. Neighborhood very safe. The home was perfect. Very comfortable beds (master is memory foam), clean and easy access to everything. We also booked the additional apartment which is next to this home. Had a challenge with the all-in-one washer dryer but finally figured it out. Would definitely return to Charleston and would want to stay here again.

Perfect location, easy walk to fabulous restaurants and fun activities. Fun to stay in a historical building. Wonderful beds!!
5.0 / 5.0
Had a wonderful time at this apartment. Can't beat the location. Parked the car and never moved it until we left. Very comfortable beds and the showers were great. Great eateries nearby. Lighting needs to be improved - the ceiling fan lights just don't cut it if you want to play games at the table. Be aware that the flight of steps going up to the entry are steep for you older folks! Security was good! I would definitely recommend :)
5.0 / 5.0
The apartment was in a great location for walking to all of downtown Charleston. It was accurately described, clean, and had lots of character since it is in a historic building. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.
5.0 / 5.0
This place feels like going to your favorite aunt’s house. She has taken great care to prepare for your stay, making sure everything is clean and there’s lots of clean linens, and extra items in the kitchen. The decorations are artful and eclectic. This is how VRBO started - with people sharing vacation homes they truly care about - not a profit-driven bare bones kind of property. And the location is fantastic! Only drawbacks are the somewhat narrow metal stairs and the location of the second bathroom is a bit awkward, but some trade offs are to be expected with historic preservation.

This property has a great central location to the historic area of downtown. After being out and about all day in the city it’s a great place to come back to and unwind. The owners have made it feel like a home away from home!

We had an amazing stay at the Jacobsen property! The location was perfect…we were able to easily walk to anything In Charleston and the area was quiet in the evenings and we were able to sleep very well. The rooms were very clean and well equipped with everything that we needed, even down to the coffee which was also amazing! Jan was very responsive to any questions that I had. We definitely plan on staying here again on our next trip to Charleston.
5.0 / 5.0
Exactly as presented - and exceeded our wildest expectations!! The location is ideal for walking literally everywhere on the peninsula. The building IS old - which is part of the ambiance of Old Charleston. The exterior steps are safe & easy to manage, the foyer welcoming and the entire property charming and delightful! The beds are extremely comfortable with plenty of choices in pillows. We hope to book for next year within a few days!

My sister and I rented this beautiful apartment on Broad Street during Spoleto. We live in Mt. Pleasant (10 miles away) but wanted to enjoy some "downtown life". The apartment had everything we needed. Accommodations were as advertised (lovely). Coordination with Jan was perfect. Thank you so much!

5.0 / 5.0
Beautiful, comfortable, roomy and charming VRBO. We were extremely delighted with this property. It was perfect for four “Golden Girls” to reconnect for our 70th birthdays. It fit our need to enjoy coffee and breakfast pastries in the morning. The fridge held our cold beverages for great conversations in the evening. In between, we could walk in all directions to enjoy this beautiful, historic city.
