The Artist's Atelier | Cozy Elliotborough Retreat
About this apartment rental
Permit Number: 04164 The Space: Walk everywhere from this charming historic midtown home that is in Cannonborough, one of downtown’s hottest neighborhoods. Restaurants, coffee shops, yoga studios, shopping and 3 college campuses all within walking distance. And just a short drive to the pristine beaches of Sullivan’s Island and Isle of Palms! This first-floor apartment is roughly 1400 square feet and is large enough for 4 people to easily enjoy but quite cozy if there’s only 2 of you! The tree-lined street is quiet (which means you’ll have a great night’s sleep), but 4 blocks from King Street, where you’ll find the buzz of cafes, restaurants, galleries, shopping and vibrant night-life. Unlike many downtown properties, this property comes with 2 off-street parking spaces. You’ll never have to stress about finding or paying for a place to park. The kitchen is fully equipped for when your wallet needs a break from sampling all of Charleston’s world-class restaurants and bars. If you don’t want to brew up the Charleston roasted coffee that is provided for you, just meander across the street to 132 Spring Cafe (or other coffee shops) to enjoy local coffees and baked goods. The large dining area is open to the living room and kitchen, perfect for family game nights or lingering after your home-cooked meals. We hope you enjoy the original artwork throughout the home, it is decorated with the owner's work and beautiful antique furnishings. The two bedrooms are located towards the back for the unit with one king bed and one queen bed. The king room features an ensuite bathroom that also opens to the kitchen and also features a washer/dryer. There is also a full bath in the hall for the queen bedroom to use as well.

We loved this house and will absolutely stay again! It is so quaint and the perfect location. We stumbled into the owners who own a coffee shop a couple blocks away called “bad bunny” and they are the nicest people! Also an awesome coffee shop. Would recommend this place to everyone!

We stayed at this property with our adult son for several days and highly recommend it. The location is near quaint neighborhood restaurants and coffee shops and is a short walk to shopping on King Street. The driveway parking was very convenient. The home is nicely furnished and had everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Charleston.

We loved the house! It was comfortable, beautifully decorated and the perfect spot to explore Charleston for a few days. We thought the neighborhood was charming and appreciated so many good restaurant choices nearby. We experienced first hand southern hospitality and friendliness.

Beautiful and spacious property in a location that worked for us. Spouse required cardiac surgery at MUSC; apartment five minutes away from hospital. Visitors of Charleston since 1980’s we were not familiar with this area; loved Fuel Cantina and having a neighborhood grocery store on Spring St. The residence was a temporary oasis for our family. Much thanks to Duvet!

Great location.
Very comfortable.
The owners have done a beautiful job decorating. So nice to come to a vrbo with art on all the walls.
We loved the set up of two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. It was perfect for two couples.
Having parking for two vehicles was a bonus.

The apartment is a little tired, bathrooms are small, but location and comfort of beds and kitchen are great. Easily walked to most things we wanted to see and slept great! The communication was sub par. I received an email two days before our trip saying our reservation had been cancelled. I tried to call Stay Duvet the next day…could not get a person to talk to but received an email confirming my reservation. Not a great way to start a vacation.

Artist Atelier is spacious, sparkling clean, cozy, comfortable and nicely decorated. We appreciated the off-street parking and super comfortable beds. The location is quiet and was easy walking distant to many of the restaurants on our itinerary. The younger member of our group walked to the French Quarter while we found it was a easy drive. The owners live on-site and couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating. Highly recommended.

Loved this property! It was very comfortable for our family of 4 and we LOVED the walkability to tons of great restaurants downtown. Highly recommend!

The sitting space is very small, picture showed couch, love seat and coffee table. Space included 1 chair and a couch, no coffee table, or love seat.
Horrible draft from under the couch during the cold weather. The wind coming in from the front outside wall would blow a candle out. We sat, wrapped in blankets with our feet on the dining room chairs trying to get warm. The heater ran continuously. I can only imagine what the power bill is on this unit in the condition it’s in.
The slanted ramp like area between the living room and dining room is really dangerous. Two adults slipped but did not fall on that area. It needs to be either removed or marked with slip resistant tape.
Being seniors, the toilets are quite difficult to use, they are very low. Comfort height toilets would be a good improvement.
The parking is horrible, once the first car is in place, it’s difficult for the driver to exit the car, since there’s a palm tree to at the drivers door.
We met the owners while we were there and they appeared to be lovely people, they just need to make some improvements In this property.
Also, the door leading to the upstairs unit is about 3 feet from the door leading to the rental unit. Having a small dog or any any dog for that matter allowed in the rental, causes barking since the second door is in continuous use. I’m quite sure they were tired of the dog barking, but they were in and out the entire time we were there.
Having traveled all over the country, the price for this unit was far above what it should have been, for the amenities, condition and or location.
I would not recommend this unit unless there were many improvements made, to make the stay enjoyable and the price paid more accurate for what is offered.
Thank you for requesting feedback, hopefully it will help others to be more prepared than we were for what they’re getting for the money being charged.

We loved staying at this home for a weekend in Charleston! Convenient location in beautiful and safe neighborhood, clean and well maintained home, and plenty of space. Would absolutely stay again next time we’re in town!

We traveled to Charleston with our son and daughter-in-law for sightseeing and visits with friends. We felt at home the minute we opened the door to Artist’s Atelier. After a 12-hour drive, it was a huge comfort to settle in so easily. We didn’t expect the unit to have so much room! The attention to detail by the owners is quite impressive. The beds are incredibly comfortable and the neighborhood is quaint and
quiet. The people of Charleston are among the friendliest we have ever encountered, and the restaurants are beyond
compare. This was the first time we’ve rented through Vrbo, but we will not hesitate to book with them again in the future. Hats off to Carol and Rick, you guys nailed it! Any chance you own properties in other great places?

This home couldn't have suited us any better. It was very clean and quiet. We like to walk on vacation and it was easy to get around the downtown area. It was my wife and I along with my daughter and her best friend. We always felt safe and had so much fun. Thanks again for your hospitality.

We loved the cottage and everything about it. We hope to come back. The Savannah VRBO was not rated this good.

This was a really great place to stay for our daughter's wedding in old town Charleston. It was very comfortable, clean, and well equipped. All the furnishings are in great shape, and we had just the right amount of room. The off street parking was also good, and the location is close to everything downtown. Nothing was more than 5 or 10 minutes away. We also met the owners who live upstairs and found them delightful and sincere. We highly reccomend this property and the owners.

Great Charleston rental
Couldn’t ask for better accommodations in Charleston. Very nice two bedroom apartment on lower level of Charleston styled house. Owner lives in Apartment above rental and very responsive. Off street parking right next to entrance. Ideal location on Ashley street about mile plus to historic Charleston. We never drove but used Uber twice a day. Highly recommend this vacation rental.
