Very quaint house in a perfect location. Views off the balconies were very nice. The bed was very comfortable with large bedrooms. We were all very happy with Circa 1785 and would stay there again if we travel to Beaumont SC in the future.

Romantic Location for Anniversary Stay
Offering a romantic location for our one night anniversary stay in Beaufort, Circa 1785 ticked all the boxes. I am getting used to the style of this type of STR - in a home without any host. (At first, being an Airbnb host myself, I was put off but now appreciate this type of stay.) Particularly impressed with the clear communication at this property, and with the bountiful supply of amenities.

AI hotel management? Not ready for prime time.
The experience at this 'self service' hotel would have been five stars across the board except for the fact that we would not provided with the codes for the front door or a room. Upon arrival, I had to call the company and was told that the appropriate person would respond within 60 seconds. This did not happen and we waited for 30-45 minutes for a reply When I emailed the company as directed if we had a problem, their mailbox was full. Just as we were preparing to leave in search of another hotel, an email with the codes arrived. Otherwise, the room was clean and freshly made up, there was an adequate supply of towels and our stay overall was quite pleasant, indeed much above average. I would book again, and hopefully by then the system will have been improved.

Nice place. Hope to be back. Just odd that we never met anyone that worked at circa 1785. Everything was remote. Which made it challenging when we had thermostat issues

This is an old historic home that was remodeled into a small hotel With five suites. We had 3 rooms, our friends found dirty robes and wet towels in his room. We discuss with the owner and was promised to get a refund of some percentage. I texted and followed up but nothing from the owner. The sheets and beds are nice and comfortable. We had the biggest suite and it was nice although the couches is dirty and should be steam Clean! Nice decor
