My wife and I enjoyed our stay in this unique and historic setting. The room was spacious and everything was clean and comfortable. We will definitely consider another stay.
The room was huge and very comfortable. The shower was also very large and had great water pressure. Perfect place to stay for a show at USCB and walkable to everything.
Nice historical building within a ten minute walking distance to restaurants and museums. The room was large and the bed comfortable. The complementary glass of wine and coffee was a nice touch!
Our room was exceptional and spacious. Bedding luxurious. The self serve coffee bar and wine bar was perfect touch.
Only Issue was with continued hot water in shower.
Host was quick to answer any questions.
This house is special I mean built 1785. Unique experience from a traditional hotel or bnb. House is in great shape and great part of history and southern charm.
Very comfortable and clean.
We went to Beaufort for our anniversary and had an amazing stay at Circa. It’s an old souther mansion divided into luxury sweets. It’s in walking distance to downtown and is very clean and charming. We would stay here again.
The house is beautiful and has great charm. Just understand that there is no front desk or help for service. If you run out of toilet paper, don’t know how you would get more except by request via text. There was no cable TV for local news . Also, they should supply body wash. Not a major problem, just a suggestion. The hotel was in a great location. You could walk to restaurants. There was no breakfast but a cute cafe a block away. I would definitely stay again.
