Great little place to get away. Shared kitchen space is great for coffee in the morning or a snack at night. Use of the fridge is also nice.
This was our second stay at the Bowery and it was very comfortable, convenient, and affordable.

Great place with lots of charm. The outside is a work in progress but we loved the stay! Had a maintenance issue which was solved quickly. Great communication! Could walk to everything! If you like antiques and charm and don’t mind stairs up, this is the place for you! We were waiting for ghosts from the 1800s but never happened!

A gem in historic Apalachicola. This old guest house has been nicely updated to keep the original charm with modern updates. Convenient location and easy entry with a nice blast of cold air from an air conditioner that works like a champ. Mattresses were new and super comfortable. Enjoy the wraparound porch, rocking chairs and ambience of the entire place.

Very interesting and delightful stay
Enjoyed our stay in the Sunshine Sojourn especially not having a tv, we never thought about the news or what was going on in the world. Just relaxing with the good people of Apalachicola and wondering the streets that my g-g grandfather did as a young man even spend time with him at the Chestnut Cemetery, just a very pleasant stay. Will stay again down the road. Thanks for the hospitality. Durward & Deborah

Convenient & Comfy Stay
Loved every moment of our stay and room. Very clean & well decorated. Bed was super comfy. We were a little weary from some other reviews of being able to hear everyone else staying in other rooms, but we did not experience this issue. Our stay was perfect for our weekend getaway. We will definitely be back!

Quirky but fine
A quirky but great large room with big bathroom. Took a few goes to get door open when arrived but worked it out. My only criticism applies to many US establishments and that is use of disposable plastic in the kitchen. Needed some bowls. Good location. Would recommend

Great location!
Everything in the unit was as described. We chose this out of the 4 possible units in the building because it was set slightly off from the shared space. We really enjoyed the small upper deck for watching boats and later for some star-gazing (we recommend a new door handle on this access door) - and the coffee was a great touch. The location was perfect for us to walk to dinner, the water, and downtown.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Bowery Inn is a lovingly-restored old hotel in the historic district of Apalachicola, including antique furniture, vintage materials and period features. So if you want a window into the quiet town's past, this is it. There was a gusty thunderstorm just as we were going to bed, so we experienced the slashing rain on the veranda and old tin roof. Very nostalgic and romantic.
