Great 6 week stay

Spent six weeks at the property. Wonderful places to eat within walking distance between fourth and ninth Street enjoyed about a 25 minute walk to and from the train station each day.The property has a steep set of stairs from the first to the second floor, do not wear socks! I learned the hard way and at 69 years old that’s a less than I should’ve known Long before I slipped. My fault entirely, not the properties.Being from South Louisiana, I also learned a lot about winters in Philadelphia— they can get cold!!

Great Location

Location was fantastic! We walked everywhere we went! Hosts were attentive when we asked about a couple recommendations. House was clean and nice. Would say a few things could use some updating but it didn’t affect our overall experience and stay. I would definitely stay here again!!

Great location, needs some maintenance

Excellent location with easy & free parking; walkable to Italian market, south street etc. needs maintenance: coffee maker caked with coffee grinds, the dish rack rusty, sponge & dish towel dirty, 2nd bed in bedroom takes up entire room. Overpriced for what it is.

Great time in Philly!

First and foremost, the people of Philadelphia were awesome! Everyone we encountered was courteous and friendly. Our host (Jennifer) was very accommodating and responsive to all of our needs. We always felt she was interested in making sure our experience was pleasant and enjoyable. The home was perfectly located, making it easy to either walk or bus to all of our destinations. Everything from the neighborhood markets and eateries, as well as the downtown and the waterfront areas were easy to get to. We thoroughly enjoyed the people and the city, and are looking forward to a return trip.

Cool place!

We are ballpark chasers and we visited Philadelphia to see a Phillies game. Jennifer was a wonderful host and checked on us before, during and after our trip. Her beautifully renovated, decorated and clean home is a quick drive to the ballpark and a convenient walk to Independence Hall and other historical sites. There is a pharmacy in walking distance as well as coffee shops and restaurants. Check-in was so easy and the park across the street gave a nice view from each of the three floors. The two large full bathrooms had everything we needed. A tower fan in one of the bedrooms was a nice extra and so was the mini-split A/C in another bedroom. The beds were comfy and the sheets were soft! We had plenty of paper goods and coffee too.

Beautiful,very clean and comfortable accommodations

Very clean spacious accommodations and decorated beautifully. Beds were super comfy and bathrooms very large! The home was perfect for my family of six adults. Good restaurants within walking distance. Parking with a really large vehicle was only challenge but always found a spot within a block. Recommend this location.

Great stay in Philly

The home is great! We had all the amenities we needed in a clean house. Great location on a quiet park-facing street, and close to all of the Philadelphia sites.

Why they chose this property

⭐ “Spacious, well appointed, and well located. We were able to walk to great restaurants and fun neighborhoods!”

😎 What’s Philadelphia all about?
Forget cheesesteaks for a sec (though, trust us, they're worth the hype!), Philly's got way more to offer than just a sandwich. This city's got history pulsing through its streets, from the Liberty Bell's iconic crack to the Rocky steps that'll make you wanna channel your inner champion. Dive into world-class museums, catch a game (Eagles fans, we see you!), or wander through vibrant neighborhoods like Rittenhouse Square with its charming cafes and leafy green spaces. At night, the city comes alive with buzzing jazz bars, trendy rooftop hangs, and enough cheesesteak options to keep you fueled for days (okay, maybe we can't forget them completely!). So ditch the ordinary, Philly's waiting with open arms (and maybe a delicious hoagie) for your next adventure!
