The staff was pleasant and accommodating. The breakfast was good. The property needed updating. Dirty carpets everywhere and a fresh coat of paint would help on interior walls.

I spent a weekend with my girlfriend there and we loved the place. Very charming, very clean, excellent service and very sweet staff. Prime location; everything was in walking distance. The only downside was our bed: way too small for two people who aren’t planning on spooning at night.

Perfection
The Barksdale Inn was absolutely adorable. The inn is beautiful, our room was nicely decorated and very comfortable, and it was a great location to easily walk around Charleston. The staff could not have been nicer. We were so sad to leave!!
