I highly recommend staying at The Ashley! The hosts were super responsive, they had breakfast in the mornings as well as drinks and snacks for whenever! I really appreciated they had bikes for guests to take out on rides! The whole house was cute and our room was very cozy.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. We were so impressed by how clean and put together everything was. We were especially grateful that the hosts allowed us to keep our luggage in the parlor for a little bit after checkout. Very accommodating!

This bed and breakfast was the most perfect and charming home to give us a genuine feel of the historical Charleston area! The piazza (porch) was great for getting fresh air/relaxing and the common area always had drinks and local fresh breakfast sandwiches that were delicious!! We had a hike up 2 sets of stairs to the 3rd floor but it was well worth it for the comfortable room with its own restroom. The home was occupied by many other guests but we rarely ran into others and the home was very peaceful. The walk to the market area was easy but a good ways away (25 minutes) so we drove, especially on the heat some days. Over all, we would love coming back to this great place!!

Response from The Ashley:

Response from the owner 2 years ago Bridgette, Thank you so much for the kind words! we're so glad you had a great time. If we're fortunate enough to see you again, our bikes are a great way to travel around the area without worrying about traffic

An amazing experience for the weekend! The service and communication were top tier, the location was perfect, the grounds were clean and accommodating. If you want to be close to downtown but not to close this is perfect. The area is very quiet and the guests were quiet and respectful. I can’t express how much I appreciate the staff and the service they provide but you’ll have to experience it yourself. The Ashley is 10 out of 10 and highly recommend anyone to stay!

One word - AMAZING!!! Found & booked this gem on AirBnB. My friend & I stayed here for a long weekend and we were so impressed. The interior is beautifully decorated, I believe the building is a newly-renovated historic building. We were in awe of the details and care that was put into our stay. I would recommend staying here to everyone. Our favorite parts: - Free grab & go breakfast EVERY day! They have free breakfast bagel sandwiches, coffee, tea, snacks, drinks, etc. This was so convenient in the morning & saved us a ton of money. - The porch!!! We sat out here every day, multiple times a day. It was so relaxing and the view is nice. - The decor. Seriously, the rooms and the common areas are gorgeous. Very Instagram worthy - if that matters to you. - The location. Everything we wanted to do was 10 minutes away by driving max. There's also a ton of restaurants and shops nearby within a short walking distance. Felt very safe the whole time as 2 female travelers! Cons (very minor stuff): - No elevator. Hauling our suitcases up the stairs was a little tricky! Keep this in mind when packing, lol. - Seemingly no staff on site? We assumed there would be a front desk but there wasn't. This only rose an issue when the fire alarm went off & we weren't sure what to do (there's an after-hours number to text, but we didn't hear back very promptly). - Slightly thin walls. We had a noisy neighbor the first night & the traffic outside is a little loud at times.

Response from The Ashley:

Response from the owner a year ago Hi Danielle, thanks so much for being our guest. We are very sorry to hear that the fire alarm went off during your stay. We do have sound machines in each room, as you are right, these old historic homes have thin walls! We look forward to welcoming you again.

I stayed at the Ashley in the King-Speak-easy suite and it was everything described. The bed and linens were so soft and comfortable, the bathroom was clean with beautiful designs and the speak-easy room was adorable! An added bonus was the Nespresso machine in the room and Breakfast was included in the quaint parlor. If you want some Charleston Charm, the Ashley is the spot!

So cute and cozy! Def feels like historic Charleston. Only 12 min walk to all the shops and restaurants on King St.! We got confused about parking and called, the property manager immediately arrived to help us. He was extremely pleasant and offered us refreshments and snacks in the common area before showing us to our room. They also provide delicious coffee and bagels in the morning which is such a nice touch! Lots of snack and beverages as well. The room was very nice and clean. Thank you!!!-Amanda W

My husband and I loved our stay at The Ashley. We were looking for something a little cheaper than the options in downtown Charleston, but that still had the charm of a historic hotel and The Ashley delivered. Keep in mind it does take about 20-30 minutes to walk to King Street, but we enjoyed the walk and not having to deal with parking. It's a huge plus that parking is complimentary at The Ashley as most downtown hotels and inns make you valet or pay a daily parking fee. We took advantage of the complimentary bikes to ride down to the battery one morning, too. Our room was clean, cozy, and everything worked well. We also really appreciated the daily breakfast sandwiches, coffee, and snacks in the lobby. The area/neighborhood we stayed in was quiet and charming. We would definitely recommend this stay to anyone!

Response from The Ashley:

Response from the owner a year ago Chloe, thank you for the positive feedback. It was our pleasure hosting you, and we look forward to have you visit us again!

We stayed at The Ashley Bed & Breakfast for our 1-year anniversary back in 2014, and it was the sweetest, most memorable trip ever. We got married on Halloween, so naturally we did a sailboat ghost tour - spooky, romantic, and so much fun. The B&B was charming, cozy, and felt like home in the best way. 10/10 would go back in a heartbeat. My only regret? Not stealing a mug… just kidding (kind of).

Response from The Ashley:

Response from the owner 11 months ago That sounds like such a magical anniversary trip. We're honored The Ashley could be part of such a special memory. We’d love to have you back anytime!
