We had an amazing stay at one of the Historic Charleston B&B locations - the Secret Garden Cottage…read more It was amazing, peaceful, and so charming. The entire process was so easy and everyone I spoke to at Historic Charleston B&B was very friendly and accommodating. We were offered an earlier flight and came in way earlier than expected. We called to ask if we could leave our bags and come back for the 4pm check-in, but they let us check in early! Highly recommend booking one of their beautiful properties for an authentic Charleston visit.

With Hurricane Florence headed for Charleston, we were hit with another unforeseen dilemma…read moreregarding our relocation to Charleston from out of state. All businesses closed, all communication had shut down, and all hopes of finding a decent rental became one big question mark. We had to play the waiting game from afar. As soon as businesses reopened, we called Walk Away Stays as a temporary landing zone until we could find a more permanent solution. We were able to get in touch with Jamie. We explained our situation and within 24 hours we had secured the 248A property for a duration of two weeks. Jamie was very helpful, and we were fortunate something was still available considering our timeline to get to town. Walk Away Stays even lets you make payment (required in full with a pet fee, cleaning fee, and a refundable deposit) via credit card (with no processing fee), so that's a huge plus! We checked ourselves into 248A using the keyless door entry with a code they give you prior to arrival. 248A is a first floor unit (of a duplex) with 2 BR / 2 BA. Both bedrooms have California king beds and are quite comfy! There's a fully equipped kitchen and a washer and dryer. You are allocated one parking spot in the back of the house. Last but not least, they are dog friendly. Check-in is 3:00 pm, and check-out is 11:00 am. Considering our circumstances, we were able to have some semblance of normalcy due to the amenities that came with the rental (i.e. kitchen), making it feel almost as if we were home. 248A is such a great location! With King Street only 10-15 minutes away, we pretty much walked everywhere downtown and barely used our car. It is also centrally located with regards to Highway 17 to West Ashley one way and Mount Pleasant the other way. We couldn't have asked for a better location. My only complaints were they only had one roll of toilet paper for each bathroom and one paper towel for the kitchen. We ended up having to purchase additional toilet paper and paper towels to get us through our two-week stay. We also couldn't lower the thermostat lower than what had already been set, and there were some days it was extremely hot and almost unbearable. Keep in mind we stayed in the property in September. Keep those fans running, so the the place can stay somewhat cooler. It shouldn't be an issue in the fall or winter. In addition, my husband and I are extremely allergic to cats dander and had a tough time during our stay. There may have been cats here previously (as they are pet friendly). Overall, we had a pretty pleasant experience with Walk Away Stays and we'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an extended stay that feels more like a home (because it is) than a hotel.

I booked a three-night stay - Dec 26, 27, 28 2016 - in a 493 King Street suite, Charleston, SC…read morethrough VRBO. The owner was listed as Kevin High, however I later learned that this is a front for Walk Away Stays, LLC. I was switched out of the unit that I booked and paid for, forced to disrupt our stay with a move, and given two very unacceptable replacement units. The following is the full story. A couple of hours prior to our arrival I was contacted by Kelsey at Walk Away Stays and informed that the unit we had booked had a burst water pipe, water damage, and although the cleaning service was working to get it cleaned up, it would not be available for our stay. (The cleaning service told me that the unit had actually been double booked. Kelsey at Walk Away Stays stood my her story and said the cleaning service was "confused", it was actually a different unit that had been double booked. Seriously?!?) Walk Away Stays, LLC found two different units for us - one night (12/26/16) at 154A Spring Street and two nights (12/27 and 12/28) at 248A Ashley Ave. To make up for the disappointment, trouble, and inconvenience Kelsey promised the following: 1) Both of the units were at least comparable to the 493 King Street unit that we booked and paid for. 2) Although we would have to be out of the 154A Spring Street unit at the normal checkout time of 11:00am, the 248A Ashley Ave unit would be cleaned and ready before the normal 3:00 check-in. Walk Away Stays would call me as soon as the Ashley Ave unit was ready. 3) Walk Away Stays would give us a $50 gift certificate to a local restaurant. None of these promises were kept. Upon arrival at 154A Spring Street, I was devastated. It was in no way comparable to 493 King Street and the convenience of being steps away from great restaurants. It was next door to a hostel in a very sketchy neighborhood, and about one mile further away from the areas we had planned to walk to. I called and left a message that this was unacceptable and to please call me back. My call was never returned. I then called the after-hours number and left another request for a return call. That call was not returned either. They did text me the access code to the wifi - which, btw, did not work. They didn't return my request for help with that, either. On 12/27, the day of our move to 248A Ashley Ave, we did not receive a call and were not allowed into the unit early. I called Walk Away Stays and spoke to Allie. She claimed to know nothing about any promises or the situation with the 493 King Street unit and said she would look into it. She never called me back. Before leaving Charleston, I called and spoke to Kelsey again. I told her that she had not followed through on any of her promises to make things right for us. The substitute units were not acceptable. We weren't allowed "early checkin" to the second unit. I never received the gift certificate. She said they had been too busy. I told her that I would be posting negative reviews and she said "OK. Fine." I'll probably never know if a pipe really broke, or if Kelsey lied to cover up a double booking (intentional or not?) However, based on the complete failure to make things right for us and follow through on the promises made, I believe the cleaning service and I think that Kelsey and Allie at Walk Away Stays, LLC flat out lied to me. A legitimate company would return calls and make sure that customers got what they paid for, or in the case of unavoidable situations were fairly compensated for their loss. Don't just walk away from Walk Away Stays, RUN-RUN-RUN AWAY!

iTrip is a terrible property management company. I've never been treated with more disrespect by a…read moreservice provider in my life. I stayed in one of their Isle of Palms units last week, and the internet did not work. The condo did not receive cell service, and because there was no internet, I could not use my baby monitor, work from home, or watch TV because all of their TVs are streaming only. The reason the internet did not work was due to iTrip's negligence in maintaining the router - it was corroded and iTrip was unable to get a replacement during my stay. While iTrip did send someone out to look at the issue, that person was unable to respond. Communication with iTrip is horrendous. There is no proactive outreach providing solutions (they could have moved me to another unit, given me one of the other WiFi passwords for the unit, offered me something, etc.). They did respond to my communication attempts, but not with anything helpful, just that they would "pass the message along." When I finally was able to speak with a human (Tessa) she was so rude to me and kept telling me this wasn't her problem (even though these issues were due to poor maintenance). Then she left a nasty review about me on Air B&B. Save yourself the headache and book anywhere else. FOLLOW UP: I've been begging Steven at iTrip to call me for 10 days, and he hasn't made the effort to do that, but did respond to my review within minutes. Just look at how many one star reviews they've received....this company is not it.

I can tell you of my personal experiences. I say this, having first had her help in acquiring a home, then later sell my home! I got the same great experience as a buyer and a seller. I can honestly say, without Franny's help I would have likely not achieved my goals with another Agent. The commission I paid I felt was justly deserved and if "going it alone" as a For Sale by owner, I could never have obtained better sales results, not a chance - not even close. She put a lot of time into my transaction and she treated it as if it were her own personal purchase or sales contract. She is detailed oriented, yet sees the bigger picture and she really helped me to see in each transaction what I could not see myself (objectivity). Franny does not try to make people "do certain things" she merely presents the challenge or opportunity and asks each party involved, "how would you like to proceed?". I like the fact she respects the customers various opinions yet is candid and sincere, giving helpful, frank suggestions along the way, and in any transaction she always tries to help everyone arrive at the best win-win solution, which is really what everyone wants. Personalities and egos can often complicate transactions, however, Franny amazingly pulls everyone together for success. She does not just tell people what they want to hear. In closing, Franny was always available to me like no other Agent has been, here, or anywhere else I've lived; Franny gets results and results are what really count at the end of the day!"
