This is a wonderful old home on the National Historic Register that has been converted into 5 really nice rooms. Our room was large and very clean on arrival. We did have some contact with staff and they were very prompt and helpful. The location is great being basically downtown and within walking distance to many attractions. Beaufort is a great town and this is a fantastic place to stay. You will not be disappointed.

Not a fan of the 1 vehicle per guest as I was meeting someone there. Wish the fireplace would've actually worked. Bathroom could use some kinda heat. Other than that, not a bad place to stay.

Wonderful overnight stay.

Amazing bathroom with comfy tub and huge shower. The room was comfortable and well appointed. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Everything we needed. Only drawback was proximity to noisy street. This is a self serve establishment. We were provided codes to doors. There is a phone number if you need help, but otherwise there is no contact with staff. We would definitely stay here again.
