This place is tidy, charming and clean. It is extremely convenient for all things downtown Beaufort. We walked to everything we needed and there is a little store underneath that has a variety of items including snacks, drinks and wine. It appeared they were mid renovation as the entrance door and bathroom trim were non existent - leaving it mildly unsightly. The entrance stairs could use some vegetation control, especially if someone is allergic to poison ivy. Sleeping wise the bed could use a quieter bed protector and one night the crowd on the street got rowdy throughout the night so we were awaken several time. Overall I would recommend and I would stay again - it was a cozy convenience bed/bath & kitchenette for a nice weekend down town!

Great little apartment right in the heart of downtown, historic district, shopping, and great food choices. There was some restaurant noise late at night, since there is an excellent restaurant/bar right across the street. We plan to book again in the future.Parking worked out well, just be aware that the designated car park area is a couple of blocks away. Not an issue for us, but some might. Also, there are steps leading up to the apartment. Again, we loved it, but for anyone with disabilities, it might be an issue.

Cannot say enough about this wonderful place! My husband and I love love loved it. Easy to get around to places from it. We had a boat that was at the marina, which was only a block away. We want to come back and stay again for a weekend again. Everything about this place was perfect!

Location, location, location

I wanted to love this property. The owners have made such an effort to make a small space livable - with the right amount of quirky. I loved the walls, floor, comfy chairs and flax/linen comforter cover. Communication was really great when I had problems connecting to the internet (router and password are not accurate on VRBO listing). OK, here's the problem(s). Immediately upon entering, both my husband and I noticed the slight smell of mildew / mustiness that, unfortunately, did not dissipate for me. I was having problems dealing with it. Was it coming from the walls (no, they were sealed), the bedding (no, smelled fresh), the air conditioning or elsewhere (I don't know). 2nd, a prior renter had mentioned that the shower door did not close all the way and I had the exact same issue (it wasn't fixed) - the lower hinge had moved somehow and my husband had to really crank on the door to get it closed - I thought it was going to break. I had to have him let me out of the shower. Things are just a bit "unfinished" - bare wood on countertop and kitchen cupboard. The silverware was dirty and I didn't have any confidence that any of the dishes or silverware were clean. It didn't help that the silverware was stored in a rusted tin container. Sure, I appreciated the rustic touches, but NOT when it comes to eating utensils. Unfortunately, it was just a bit TOO rustic for me.

I can’t recommend this property highly enough. The location is perfect—right in the heart of downtown and the building itself has so much charm. Next time we come to Beaufort this will be our preferred stay.

I liked how close the location was to everything. It had a unique style for such a small place. What I didn't like was the air conditioner drain line dripped over the entry door real close to the door handle. We got creative on how to dodge it. And we could never get the tv to turn on. Also, parking was horrible! We followed the parking instructions that we were given but had to figure it out.

Stayed in Beaufort for a few days heading south. This rental is in a perfect location. Great restaurant across the street & many more around the corner along with lots of shops. Water view is a block & a half walk. The rental is small but big enough for 2 for a few days. We called owning with a connectivity issue he came in a few minutes & all issues resolved.

Check in process was a breeze, communication with Ashley was so quick. The loft was super clean and so cute, this place took you back in time in a good way. With a quick walk downtown and a neat little bar across the street it made for a convenient and great time. The parking on Scott street was closed but no big deal.
