Great stay

We had a great stay at King 583. The location was great and so many things to walk to. It was pretty expensive to pay for parking, so that ended up adding about 100 to our stay. The place was super clean and nice and we had a wonderful stay. The property manager was great at communication and would definitely reccomend!

DMB weekend

Staying a couple nights to catch Dave Mathews, and make a nice weekend in Charleston. The property was great, despite a very active night seen right out front the room was very quiet. The location was great right at the north end of King St. The property itself was great.

Hotel amenities, VRBO individualism

Location is fantastic, right on King with tons of shopping and bars/restaurants but courtyard windows provided quiet for sleeping. Apartment was well equipped with lovely finishes. Desk staff were helpful and professional.

We’ll stay here again

My husband and I chose this place to stay for our first trip to Charleston and it was fantastic. Location doesn’t get better. It was nice to have the front desk staff to store our luggage when we arrived early and departed late so that we could walk around and not have to drag our luggage. The room was perfect and spacious. We’d definitely stay here again.
