We have stayed at this lovely, historic, elegantly restored and well maintained B&B twice now. First time was in 2006 and most recently, the weekend of 5/10-12/2013. It is better than ever. Jack and Annelise continue to treat their guests as if they are family. Jack knows the best restaurants and parking do's and don'ts while Annelise knows what special... More

We arrived in Charleston during a horrific storm but once inside the doors of this beautiful B & B we felt immediately warmed and welcomed by the hospitable house manager. Her introduction to this beautiful city with terrific suggestions made us eager to explore (even in the rain). The location is perfect; on a charming quiet street but close enough... More

Mu husband and I enjoyed every minute of our stay at this charming, peaceful B&B . It was in a very convenient location and near all. The innkeepers added to the charm as did the lovely super friendly Martha. The innkeepers even made arrangements for our early arrival and late departure. We loved the friendly pets as well.

We were very fortunate to find this B & B on Trip Advisor and only wished we had been able to stay more than one night. Jack was very helpful when we booked the reservation and offered us several options. We stayed in the Cypress Room on the first floor which is a delightful, spacious room with a fireplace and...

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying at this fabulous B and B to celebrate our anniversary. We frequently choose B and Bs because of the charm and warmth that can be found if you pick the right one. We hit the Jackpot! First, let me say that Jack and Annelise could not have more welcoming. We also... More

If you are looking for a beautiful b&b close to the battery and within walking distance of shopping, dining, and historical sites, you have come to the right place. The house is a gem, and the innkeepers are wonderful. Afternoon wine or beer on the piazza is heavenly. Our group of six women rented the Carriage House and had a... More

My wife and I are 30 and 28 years old, respectively, and we recently stayed at 15 Church Street for three days. We thoroughly enjoyed our accommodations (we stayed in the Blue Room) and the company. Probably the most important thing to recognize before you book is what you're getting. This isn't a new-construction Ritz Carlton; it's a 170 year-old... More

Read the review by "Never too old to Travel". It is very accurate, although it never bothered us to reuse our cloth napkins from the previous, delicious breakfast. I wish I could give this place four and a half circles, rather than just four, though, as I would rate our experience very, very good. The one thing that bothered us... More

(I could not be an innkeeper! Bless their hearts! I would not accept credit cards either.) This B&B is an active graceful family home which was one of six B&Bs my wife & I reserved for 2 nights on a 14 day/ 2,745 mile/ 10 state road trip.

First, let me say that Jack and Annelise are delightful people. Martha and Leann are part of their staff and they, too, were so friendly and helpful.

While we are always dismayed to receive a less than stellar review, we realize it is impossible to please 100% of the public 100% of the time. With regard to what information these guests admit to having received via the web, our correspondence, and personal as well as written instructions in the room, their comments are perplexing, and enigmatic.
