Historic 86 Church Street, Charleston

Our experience made us want...

Liked: We love history, so staying in the Bed-and-breakfast was quite an experience! It was gorgeous! Also, we were close to everything that we wanted to see, walking to most sites and experiences

Good

Liked: Perfect location for getting around on foot. Beautiful old historic home unlike anything in my state. The 2-bedroom cottage had a washer & dryer and 2nd bathroom not mentioned in the description, which was a wonderful surprise. Lovely outside courtyard with water fountain and places to sit and read. Turned out to be right around the corner from where my ancestors lived!
Disliked: Beds too soft for our old backs. Downstairs very dark. Bedrooms are upstairs and I wasn’t able to carry a suitcase up, so it lived downstairs for the time we were there. Never figured out how to get the fireplace working. Although described as a “bed & breakfast”, there is no breakfast provided…only some sugar, salt and pepper.

Perfect Cottage with English Garden

Liked: What a beautiful, quaint cottage. The courtyard/garden was amazing. Hosts were pleasant and helpful. Walking distance to just about everything! Fireplace was cozy on cool nights!
Disliked: We loved everything. If I had to find something wrong, I'd warn those with mobility issues that the bathroom is upstairs using either a spiral staircase inside or going outside to use regular stairs. But we adapted quickly.

Liked: Piece of Charleston history. The bed was comfortable and had air conditioning considering the age of the building made for a comfortable sleep.
Disliked: No water bottles, no iron monitoring board. Some surfaces looked dirty and the tv remote was sticky.The stairs were very tiny, difficult to bring luggage up and the railing was rope. It felt unsafe.
