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!

Wonderful overnight stay.

Amazing bathroom with comfy tub and huge shower. The room was comfortable and well appointed. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Everything we needed. Only drawback was proximity to noisy street. This is a self serve establishment. We were provided codes to doors. There is a phone number if you need help, but otherwise there is no contact with staff. We would definitely stay here again.

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!
