Best location ever!

Great location for everything- just blocks from great restaurants, bars, parks and tourist attractions. Walking distance to just about everything you'll need to see or do. Accommodations were perfect. Second floor overlooking the courtyard with fully stocked kitchen, comfortable bed & bedding, cozy living room and charming decor. I would definitely recommend this location for a stay in beautiful Charleston.

Great Location

Great location - able to walk to most things in city. Nice place….comfortable, clean and spacious with high ceilings. Great communication with host (very quick responses to questions I had) and had a parking spot included which is a big plus in the city. Being an owned unit within a hotel gave you access to an onsite bar/restaurant and a front desk staff to help answer questions. Overall would stay here again……(I am a frequent visitor to Charleston to visit family)

This place was a great home base for exploring Charleston. The loft layout was cozy but still plenty spacious. The parking garage spot came in very handy as well. Will definitely stay here again!

Great location

This condo is very close to all the great stuff in Charleston. It is a bit dated re interior decor and could use some fresh paint/clean up. The only negative is that there is virtually no sound insulation. When noisy guests come down the hall at 2am you can hear every word. And when they crank up the stereo/tv next door same deal. Still it's very close to all the good stuff and it has free parking.

Great Location for Tourist Sites, Shopping and Restaurants

The location was excellent. We didn't have a car, but we didn't need one as everything we wanted to do/see was in walking distance. This would be perfect for a couple. The sole bathroom being upstairs was a bit challenging, but we managed. I'd definitely stay here again.

Excellent location. Host was responsive to questions. Only word of caution is tight spiral stairs to bedroom and only bath for those with mobility issues. Also mention to bring own toiletries as only soap available. Location outweighed all.

Amazing location, great for exploring the city!

Ashton’s loft is in an amazing location on E Bay St - across the street from many of Charleston’s most famous restaurants. We loved the proximity to King Street shopping and the waterfront park. The loft itself was located in the Lodge Alley Inn, which was under heavy construction during the time of our stay, but the construction noise did not bother us one bit! We would gladly stay here again when we come to Charleston!

Spacious. Needs some paint updating and major clean in tub. Mildew smell in apt. Thin walls so a bit noisy at night. Bed was very comfortable and plenty of towels for 3.

Cute and cozy…

Cute and cozy in the heart of Charleston. We really enjoyed our stay and could see ourselves staying here again. Check in and out was super easy. The owner provided perfect instructions that made finding the unit and the parking garage super easy. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. It was the perfect place for us to get away for a few days to celebrate our anniversary. Thank you again allowing us to stay.

Great location for enjoying restuarants and the Spoleto festival. The loft layout gave us nice room for spreading out. The bedroom loft did not allow for a king size bed, though, which is our preference. All in all, a nice setup.
