7.0+Location is perfect to walk to all sites, markets, and restaurants. The home is a museum of curiosities in its own right and the hostess is an unforgettable combination of Southern charm and sharp wit. Wonderful stories and no nonsense advice where to go and how to get around. Her home and character really made the trip unforgettable

10.0“Gorgeous dream stay for anyone who appreciates stepping back in time to experience true Southern hospitality!”
+Beautiful historical home that was warm, comfortable and welcoming. Gorgeous rooms, lovely owner that prepared incredible delicious breakfasts with excellent Southern hospitality! Close to “must sees” in Charleston. Best tips by knowledgeable owner of where to eat per your preferences, what to see, and local history. A true home away from home that was a dream stay!!! We loved everything about this home, the owner and our stay!!!!
−There was nothing to dislike!! All the stars we could possibly give!!!

10.0“My husband and I had a wonderful stay and can’t wait to do it again!”
+The breakfast was absolutely delicious and better than anything we could have purchased at a cafe. Vaughan gave great suggestions of things to do and see. The location was within walking distance to everything. There was no way this stay could have been any better. She is a gem of the Charleston area.

10.0“Graceful Southern mansion - I loved our tub, as well as our host!”
+The location of this home is excellent, just steps from King Street. We booked the premier room in the house and I was initially taken aback to realize that my room did not have a shower (although it was clearly noted as such in the listing). I found myself however quickly loving the huge marble tub and the experience of bathing in the morning to start my day. Even during a typical Southern hot spell, our room was nice and cool due to the A/C and fans. Interesting paintings and antiques were located in our suite and elsewhere throughout the house. The breakfasts in the morning were prepared excellently by our host Vaughan - she got up early and went out of her way to ensure that we had a sumptuous experience. Most of all we loved talking with her after concluding our day and before bed - she has a wealth of knowledge about the history of Charleston, the local sights, food, and its people. And she has really great taste in jazz!! Very happy that we booked here!

10.0“Good memories.”
+I have to begin this review by admitting that, as a guest, I certainly did not make the best first impression on Mrs. Vaughan. Before our arrival, she had tried to reach me several times , by text messages, phone calls, emails, and through Booking.com , and, unfortunately, I failed to respond to any of them. To make matters worse, we arrived at her home at around 10:00 p.m. on a Friday evening. I later realized that, because she was waiting for us, our lack of communication had effectively kept her at home for more than four hours. Looking back, I completely understand why she was unhappy with me, and she was right to point it out. During our stay, I also discovered that I apparently still had a few lessons in etiquette left to learn. 😊 I forgot to turn on the light while going up and down the stairs , something that could obviously cause an accident, and Mrs. Vaughan was absolutely right to remind me. I brought my cell phone to the breakfast table and learned that mealtime should be an opportunity for people to actually talk to one another rather than spend time on their phones. And I can confidently say that I will never again make the mistake of sitting down at the breakfast ta
−At first, I thought the experience might be a little unpleasant, but once I put myself in Mrs. Vaughan’s shoes and understood her perspective, everything turned out wonderfully. I’m already planning to come back soon.

−Lots of instructions and written notes initially detracted from the ambiance of the place. However, as time went on, the owner warmed to us and us to her.

+The house has been meticulously restored. It has a “great aunt down home feeling” to it. Liked that we felt like we were in someone’s home and not just a hotel room.
