Somethings missing , somethings broken.....
Picture online was not the picture of the house. Dishwasher broken , dishes / glasses not cleaned. ( cost us money as we ate out more, didn't want to hand wash dishes on vacation). Blinds broken , baseboards need scrubbing. Owner was responsive to calls, home condition was disappointing.

My youngest and I travelled from Florida to help her older sister to move to the area and get settled. We arrived a little later than planned but Shawn left the lights on for us. It was so nice to have such a cozy, comfortable, and cute place to stay. We were able to take a break from unpacking and invite her to "our place", cook her favorite meal in a well stocked kitchen, and send her home with leftovers. We had a wonderful time and could not be more pleased with our stay. Thank you for the hospitality!

Nice Place but Bad Communication Issues with Host
We had a good stay, but it was hard to communicate with Shawn, the host (even VRBO couldn't get through to owner after I contacted them for help). When I did speak to the owner, there was difficulty with his follow-through of what he said. I am a 60 plus year old Diabetic (and Disabled Veteran) and my doctor had changed my medication which caused me to over-book my reservation, when I realized it I reached out to the property manager (Shawn) for help, and to this day he (Shawn) never did what he said that he would do to help concerning my error on the reservation. So there is a trust issue here with Shawn. I am not trying to put this gentleman down, I am only telling the truth. There were other communication issues that I won't address here because I addressed them with Shawn, when I was finally able to reach him. For anyone who chooses to stay at this location (Ladson SC), just know that there may be a communication challenge with this host. The place was nice, but customer service should be a priority for all property managers with VRBO, and it was obvious to us that we were NOT a concern for Shawn because of the lack of follow-through. I hope that Shawn will be better to others than he was with us. My family and I will never stay at this property again.

Please change the shower mat
Everything was just perfect for our 3rd Sunday dinner with family and beach day. My parents thoroughly enjoyed their stay they didn't like the steps because they're over 60 but that's not anything you could fix. I only had 2 critiques and those are the blinds (some were broken) and to change the shower mat in the bathroom. The mat became slippery when wet. I loved the Johnathan Green prints and decor. Parking just out front for easy loading. Overall will stay again when visiting Charleston.

Shawn respond to all questions quickly. There were some neighbors smoking pot. You can see the pool and can’t use it. There wasn’t really a place to put clothes that were folded. It was a good deal for the money. I would stay again.

Clean property close to most things. Only issue I have is on the listing it says pool. Apparently some of the last guests messed that up for future guest and it was not communicated to us about the change. Other than that great communication with owner, fast easy check in.

Needed a place to sleep. In town for a wedding. The place was clean. The owner was very responsive and very accommodating. I would stay again. It is not a "fancy neighborhood". I felt safe in the condo and the property was clean and well maintained. The subdivision outside the condo is mixed with some nice properties and some that are run down.

Stay with caution
On arrival to this property it was in a not so great neighborhood and very hard to locate off of the main road. Once inside the property it was stifling hot and the AC could not be lowered below 70°- air vents were half covered and the uncovered portion appeared filthy, the downstairs bathroom vent appeared to have black mold growing in it. Upstairs there were two bedrooms- main bedroom was nice however the secondary bedroom if one person moved the other person was basically bounced out of the bed. The towels had very small, dark, curly hairs in them and the tub had a mat in it that had mold growing underneath of it for who knows how long. Neighborhood was very noisy and had individuals yelling and running around outside of the unit all night along with law enforcement running through the back yard on multiple occasions. Will not be staying here again and will find a safer and cleaner location for our next stay.

Everything about this stay was perfect. This unit was beautifully decorated, clean and was in a convenient location. It is truly a home away from home. Shawn was available for any questions that I had and was very pleasant. Shawn set the standard. I expect nothing less from future hosts. Thank you Shawn.

Wonderful Stay
My husband & I, along with our twin boys, booked this townhouse for a short weekend to attend an event nearby. The property was very clean and easy to find. It was nicely furnished and the beds were very comfortable. We didn't cook but did notice that the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you would need to prepare a meal. We only live 2.5 hours away so we do visit the area often. We felt safe and close to everything so we hope this townhouse will be available for future trips to the area.
