The VRBO was so cute! The location was a little interesting, but we had a great stay. We were able to check in slightly early, which was amazing! Easy place to walk around, about 5 minutes from Oddstory Brewery.

A perfect stay. Less than 10 minute drive to the convention center. Easy to get in and out even when traffic is heavy. Pleasant decor with nice finishes. The code bar was a nice touch. The garage is for medium cars (2) only, but ample parking around the units. It was a great choice to stay here.

Beautiful, clean and well-appointed townhome that comfortably fit 2 couples, 3 kids, and 2 dogs. We were especially grateful for the baby gates, toys, and dog run! It is right next to the train tracks, but they did not bother us inside at all - in fact, it was pretty cool to watch them go by on the nice porch. Owner Ben was friendly and very responsive when I had Qs. Only taking off a star because lower shower did not have shampoo/body wash and hvac blower is really loud.

Absolutely wonderful home, conveniently located from downtown Chattanooga. We had everything we needed and then some. The coffee bar was a huge hit, as we are all coffee drinkers. I have stayed in many VRBO rentals and this was definitely a top 3 for me! Yes it’s 3 floors of living space but none of us had a problem with that. Yes it is near railroad tracks but we barely heard the trains at all. It’s not like speeding trains, blowing their horns. It’s just slow rollers. The brand new Chattanooga Lookouts minor league stadium is only a couple miles away, huge perk. If I stay in Chattanooga again, I will be looking at the availability for Ben’s place!

The property was lovely! I would note that it is situated directly next to a train track, but the area felt safe and the trains weren't loud enough to bother us at all. Everything was clean and modern, and the coffee/espresso bar was great! Also, it is very conveniently located near great restaurants and things to do. We would definitely stay here again.

We just returned from a mini vacation to Chattanooga. This place was exactly (if not better) as pictured. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. We especially enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the trains go by. Ben was always very quick to respond the any questions. We would highly recommend Southside Charmer and we’ll definitely be back.

This was the perfect place to stay for a family wedding in Chattanooga. The location was very convenient. The kitchen was a joy to use to prepare meals; the coffee bar was a treat; and there was plenty of light and space. Garage parking is a bonus and it was easy to get our fur family members to the small dog park. There are trains and train sounds but we enjoyed them and slept well each night in the very comfortable beds. All the bathrooms were clean and well appointed. Laundry was available also and came in handy. We would most definitely stay here again!

Here is a friendly and balanced version:This was a very clean, spacious, and comfortable apartment in a great central location for exploring Chattanooga. The area felt safe and convenient, and having a private garage for parking was a major benefit. The kitchen was especially impressive, with plenty of space and a large island. There were also large TVs in every room and a comfortable couch that made it easy to relax with family or friends.A few considerations to be aware of. The apartment is approximately 30 feet from the train tracks, and trains do run throughout the night. The unit is extremely well sound insulated, so the trains themselves are fairly muted and should not bother you, but the squeaking of the train wheels did occasionally wake us. It was also difficult to make the bedrooms completely dark because some windows had thick curtains while others only had thinner shades. The showers had plenty of hot water, but the water pressure or shower heads were very weak.Overall, the apartment was newer, well maintained, and very comfortable. The location, spacious layout, private garage, and large kitchen made it a convenient place to stay in Chattanooga.

Super Cute, Very Clean, and Thoughfully Stocked

Ben's rental property was very cute and spacious with plenty of room for the 7 of us! Everything was exactly as pictured.Check in was prompt and easy. Ben was very responsive and gave really good local recommendations for restaurants and bars. The unit was really well stocked with a coffee bar and had all the kitchen utensils and appliances we needed.Each bedroom was well decorated and had comfy beds and towels.We didn't have any children with us, but there were gates around the stairs, a highchair, and plates and utinsils for kid's.Over all, 10/10 would reccomend!!Thanks for a great stay!!!

Host was great, amenities are great , Location in city is safe although a little isolated. Drawbacks for us was that we thought this unit would be only two stories not three. My 85 year old mom had to stay in bottom floor bedroom 90% time. Bringing her up to family area was a task. My son's wife is 6 months pregnant and the two flights of stairs to get to upstairs bedroom was not easy. She is ex Military and in mid 20's,great shape but that is a workout. Other issue I wish we had known is constant train noise ,unit backs up to major freight rail line. Unit is great if you love stairs , you are in good shape and don't mind Train noise. Bring luggage up to 3rd floor is not easy , stairs are steep.
