The Space:
The house is a traditional Charleston single house built in 1852. It has been renovated but still has its historic charm.

The Neighborhood:
The neighborhood is surrounded by the Medical University of South Carolina. It is a vibrant community that is just a few blocks from King Street, where you will find restaurants, bars and shops galore. Our neighborhood has restaurants, a yoga studio and a spa within steps of the house.

Getting Around:
You can either walk, bike or Uber to most any place. There is also a free shuttle that transports visitors to the city center. Parking is supplied onsite for one car and there is street parking available for other cars. The MUSC parking garage is also just steps away. We suggest an economy size vehicle to navigate the narrow downtown Charleston streets.

Other Things to Note:
A microwave, refrigerator and coffee maker are provided in the room.

Excellent experience!

A very cozy and clean experience, from start to finish. The one concern we had going into this was the shared bathroom, however, it was well maintained and clean throughout the entire trip. Communication with the property manager was fast and thorough every time! 10/10 would recommend to anyone going to Charleston.

Incredible Hospitality

Karen, who runs the Inn, was absolutely amazing. She was so quick to respond to my texts and helped me resolve any issues I had. Her hospitality made me and my wife’s trip that much better. I can’t thank her enough for all that she did for us on such a special trip. We would stay here again.

NO PRIVATE BATHROOM

perfect room and comfortable amenities provided. Bathroom shown in photo was not private or attached to room. I would have NOT booked this room if I knew that we would be SHARING with other guests. This should be more clearly noted in the listing.

We had a wonderful time staying at the Parson Inn. It was not too far from downtown and only about a 20 minute drive to the beach. The room was clean and comfortable. We would definitely come back!

Well located clean but noisy

Good location - walked to all the sights in 30-40 mins, clean and comfortable bed. The noise being an old property was an issue for us, both the sirens/helicopters (it’s next to ED) and the internal noise of us/others creaking up and down stairs in the night to the shared bathroom. Heavy sleepers would be fine though.

Nice spot close to colleges and King St.

Our stay was lovely! The only downside was the bathroom being on the second floor and our room being on the third floor. Separate bathroom was on the listing I just wasn’t aware it wasn’t on the same floor.

Problems started on the front porch. No manager on-site. Front door locked. Pressed doorbell and got a recording that no one was available. Called on the telephone, same result. Half an hour of waiting for a return call — none came — and called again. This time someone answered. She said she'd sent me an e-mail but none came. Told me the code for entering the building. Room on the third floor — no elevator — bathroom/shower on the second floor. Bathroom shared with other building occupants. Manager said this was disclosed on their website but the acknowledged that other people had trouble seeing anything about that, too. Trucks driving by all night long, huge noise.
