First time at Barksdale House. Good location btw King & Meeting.Parked behind main house and left car there the whole time. Either walked or rode DASH trolley(it's free) throughout historic downtown. Friendly,informative staff. Really nice decor and excellent breakfast. We stayed in the carriage house,felt very secure,no big problems. Next time want to try second floor main house.I viewed a...

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our room was adequate, but had a lousy view of the parking lot next door and the parking spaces for the B&B. Our continental breakfast was nice with fresh fruit, cereals, muffins, coffee and tea. The pumpkin jam was awesome. Sherry was available for the guests and I suppose it is always five... More

My husband and I go to Charleston several times a year and have stayed in several places. We've stayed at the Barksdale several times now and it is by far our favorite. There are fancier places in Charleston, but they'll cost you plenty and won't beat the Barksdale for location and ease of parking. Every room at the inn is... More

We stayed three nights in an upper room in the carriage house. The price was good, the bed comfortable, and the breakfast real food, not the snack that pretends to be a breakfast in other lodgings. Only a short block to the restaurants and shops on King Street. A few blocks further to the old market. 24 hr CVS 2... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Barksdale House Inn for two nights before embarking on a cruise out of Charleston. The B&B was arranged by my boyfriend (and was a complete surprise to me!) but I couldn't have been more delighted. What a lovely place, with a very kind staff. We will absolutely stay with them again the next... More

Reserved on line the week before Christmas. It's an aging structure with a separate building at the far end of their parking lot (where we stayed) bordering a questionable neighborhood. The room was good size but desparately needing up date. The mattress was lumpy..no fridge, one small 15" analog TV placed high on a wardrobe with missing knobs at the... More

Where I do I even begin. My husband I wanted a get away for New Years and decided on Charleston a week in a advance so finding a place to stay was a bit challenging. I ended up stumbling upon the Barksdale House Inn for the New Years Eve and let me tell you the moment we pulled in we... More

Fiancee and I wanted to get away for a couple of days after Christmas so we decided to head down to Charleston for a couple of days. Had originally booked a chain hotel until I came across this place - looked nice so I booked it and cancelled at the chain - best decision I ever made! Reserved room 11... More

Our room was large and clean. It looked across the adjoining carpark, little did we know as it started to fill up there was a basketball game scheduled for that night. As it was a late game, the noise after the game kept us awake until late. People were shouting and yahooing along the street and in the carpark. I... More
