We had a fabulous stay at this property! We decided to spend two days here after a whirlwind wedding weekend and it was the perfect quiet neighborhood to rest and relax in. Our dog loved the local park and we really enjoyed the delicious restaurants close by. The space itself was a great size for two people with a gorgeous bathroom I wish we had in our own home!
The home was beautiful! Many amenities to meet any possible need we may have had. Lots of tiny things like mints on the table, epsom salt for the tub & brand new toothbrushes (just in case) to let us know our host took all aspects of our stay into consideration. She was incredibly accessible before & during our stay with instructions and with any questions we had. We will definitely be back!
I had a nice stay and it was convenient to walk to venues. The kitchen area was tight quartered and needs more light, a Keurig is needed other than an espresso machine (missing directions). Parking fees are not included. The owner programs the thermostat from another building so the renter doesn't have control over the apartment temperature. There were no welcome instructions explaining how to use appliances (like a stashed induction cookiing plate or coffee machine), and no area information. They advertised that tea would be there but it wasn't. There is no toaster oven or regular stove or oven. Take your own! It is a historic area but there was a gun shot quite close by down the street one night. You are still in a big city! The owner was very responsive and friendly but there needs to be more attention to providing basics and re-stocks that are expected in a rental.
We loved our stay in the fourth ward! The decor is bright and inviting and was a happy vibe the whole time. Literally anything we could have needed was available. I was worried about parking on the street in the city but it was absolutely fine. Many restaurants that are toddler friendly were with in walking distance and thereâs a quiet park a stones throw away that was perfect for getting our kiddoâs wiggles out. The shower has great pressure and temperature consistency. The bed and the futon were both very comfortable. Laura, our host, was very friendly and responsive. This is a great flat for a small family looking to explore Charlotte. Thank you for hosting us!
A Charlotte resident for nearly 2 decades and a world traveler for much longer, I thoroughly enjoy hosting travelers from around the world and I try very hard to offer an exceptional experience: the comfort and convenience of a "real" home enhanced by the thoughtful amenities that one usually only finds in 5-star hotels. It's what I want when I travel, and I'm privileged to be in a position to provide it to others.
Your home away from home is equal parts prestige hotel and residence inn. From Uptown's entertainments to rafting at the US National Whitewater Center, from family-friendly restaurants to pubs and fine dining, from walks in Uptown's many parks to hip clubs, Charlotte has something for everyone.
This is Charlotte's best location and the Fabulous Fourth Ward Flat's furnishings and amenities mean you will wish for nothing during your stay. From luxury linens and robes/slippers to personal care products, from snacks to beverages/mixers, and everything in between, The Fabulous Fourth Ward Flat has been described by previous guests as a "quirky gem" in Charlotte's charmingly historic Fourth Ward.
A bit of trivia: The Showtime series Homeland filmed in this neighborhood for 3 years (you might recognize the brick townhomes across the street) and in fact Claire Danes filmed a scene in the great room of the main house!
