On February 5, 2006 The Post and Courier reported, "For more than 20 years, Hadassah Rothenberg has 'harbored a dream' of being the proprietor of a beautiful bed-and-breakfast to accommodate observant Jewish travelers for Jewish Sabbath. As an observant Jew, she understands the difficulty of finding kosher food while traveling. She has realized her dream with the opening of The Broad Street Guest House, Charleston's newest bed-and-breakfast inn, and the only kosher one in town. It opened Dec. 1... Charleston is home to three thriving places of worship for Reform, Conservative and Orthodox Jews... The Broad Street Guest House is within walking distance of two Charleston synagogues, enabling guests to attend religious services, which is attractive for visiting Orthodox Jews who do not drive cars during the Sabbath."
