Really nice historic rooms. Great "Honor" bar for sitting on the veranda. Parking was easy in and out. Nice selection of free TV channels with comfortable furniture to relax.

We stayed for two nights on our way west, one at the beginning of our trip and one at the end. We stayed in two different rooms. Both rooms were great! The honor bar is a great feature. Parking is easy in and out. Would be nice if the bathroom doors would stay shut when closed, but compared to some recent travels, this hotel is priced well, has great large rooms, and was a complete pleasure!

Historic House with Modern Posh

What a cool vibing place to rest while visiting Beaufort! All the excellence of staying in a historic home combined with every creature comfort modern amenities along for the ride! The heart pine floor boards of varying widths creak which only adds to the charm of the stay! A two over two preacher’s house originally means that there are no fancy architectural embellishments, but the soaring ceilings and ample windows remind one of days gone by. I loved the honor bar and took my glass of wine to the top porch and sat up above the palmettos…did the same thing in the morning with my coffee from the coffee bar. Lovely place! Lovely stay!

The property was nice, they are still in the Process of doing the home. A couple of suggestions : The tv was all streaming, I would add cable. A Big item; there is mole smell in the house, it affected my Partner. They are trying to eliminate The mold I don’t believe they will be successful. I think they are trying. But, I would not stay there again. I have stayed in Hundreds of places around the world.

Being that I did not fully read the description I guess I should not be dissatisfied that this was not a BnB. It would be nice if bikes were offered to guest to peddle around the town. I would suggest that the bathroom window (Room1) be made more private. Our room and bathroom were beautiful and grandeur. It is a short walk to the historic downtown and we really enjoyed our stay.

Texting with staff was odd- but they were VERY responsive. Any doubt I had about no staff on property was quickly gone by their text responsiveness.
