About this property

Charming home in beautiful Historic Bethlehem near all attractions.

This one-bedroom, adults-only apartment has a queen-size bed; dining room; kitchenette; on-suite bathroom with claw-foot tub and rain shower; and basic cable/streaming TV and WiFi.

Property is not childproof so no one under 21 allowed but well-behaved pets (additional $10 per night) are welcome and must be disclosed at time of booking. Only one pet allowed per stay. Furniture will be covered and pets must be curbed somewhere other than backyard. Barkers/howlers may be asked to leave.

We ask that shoes be removed by guests as nearly the entire space is carpeted. Property is a convenient walk to most historic sites, festivals, restaurants, Lehigh University, cultural attractions and casino.

Historic Bethlehem is the first industrial settlement in America. Founded by Moravian missionaries, it still boasts the original housing, chapel, inn, apothecary, tannery, waterworks, flax mill, brewery and college. Today, a vibrant Main Street, the SteelStacks, ArtsQuest, Casino and Banana Factory all provide diverse entertainment and are within walking distance of the Cinnamon Door. We are also home to Musikfest (the largest free music festival in the nation), Celtic Fest and many other cultural events. Nearby colleges include Lehigh and Moravian and St. Luke's Hospital is within 3 miles.

We understand 'home share', but this was too much
This rental was a real mix of good and bad, but ultimately if someone were to ask if I would recommend it, the answer is sadly a NO. First the good: - Cozy, clean, and easy to get into and out of. The street is busy but there was always parking within a block. Noise level was minimal despite being a busy street. - Convenient walking distance to the entire Northern Historic District, and a quick drive to everything on the south side (we were in town for an event at Wind Creek) - Everything was labeled (with an old house there are fewer switches & plugs so it wasn't always clear what was what) - Safe and secure. Now for the rest: - The bed is really uncomfortable. This is our third trip this year and I travel a decent amount for work, and this is by far the least comfortable bed we’ve encountered. - The RULES. We are very much rule-followers and are fine with guidelines ... but when there is a manual with page after page of double-sided rules & restrictions - you end up spending your visit ensuring you don't step out of line. - Usage of the patio - while there were pictures of the patio in the featured photos, we never stepped foot until taking care of our trash & recycling at the end of our stay. Why? Because one of the rules states that guests must put in a request to use the patio - and even then only if not in use by the owners. We got up in the morning and were drinking coffee, but one of the owners was outside so we just stayed on the couch.

Lovely historic home in a perfect location!
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property that was exactly as advertised. The hosts were friendly and great in every way and very thoughtful and did everything to make sure we had a wonderful stay. It’s a short walk to the main street in downtown Bethlehem and conveniently located to many other places, including great restaurants. It was a great home away from home.

Great place to stay
We enjoyed our stay in Bethlehem! This home was so neat & clean, and had everything we needed. Loved the artwork. We so appreciated being able to bring our old pup & loved that we could walk to the center of town to enjoy restaurants & shopping. Our host was quick to respond to any question we had.

Nice place; great historic location
Nice apt in an historic home. One bedroom upstairs with the bathroom accessed through it. Very small but functional kitchen with basics. Fits two people well. The apt is in the owners home. A terrific shared w/owners backyard. On street parking but always found a spot in front. About a 15 min walk to Northside of Bethlehem.

Wonderful spot and hosts
We had a wonderful stay at Cinnamon Door. Great spot close to town and more. We have been to the area a number of times and decided to skip out on hotels this time. So glad we did! You couldn’t ask for nicer or better hosts. Had a wonderful time. Clean, cute, and cozy. We will be back.

We had a great experience with this location. Downtown Bethlehem was just a very short walk away, but far enough that the neighborhood was quiet. The apartment was spacious, and very comfortable. We'll definitely try to book here again!

Fantastic Location
This is a lovely one bedroom unit in a terrific location in Bethlehem. If you are participating in a Runner’s World event, this location is ideal, as you can walk to the starting spot for the races. Easy to access restaurants and more. We had a great three- night stay, and our pets were welcome too! Thanks for your hospitality Valerie!

Compact but complete, could not be better located for historic downtown, lovely hosts.
This was the perfect place to be to enjoy both the Bach Festival and the Arts Fair on Main Street. It is easy to get to, and getting to Bethlehem's lovely Main Street is six short blocks-- beautiful all the way. Transport to South Side attractions is easy-- although I took my car to the Bach Festival, found parking near Lehigh U, not a problem. The apartment had all the amenities I needed. Some might find it a little small--but the point is not the apartment, but everything to which you will have access from this prime location. There are really NO comparable VRBO's for a Bethlehem visit!!

Great Location for Pleasant Walk into Downtown Bethlehem
Cozy and convenient apartment to all the restaurants, cafes, and shops in historic downtown Bethlehem. Leave the car curbside at the apartment for a pleasant easy walk through the historic district into town and all it has to offer. You could even walk to the Southside and the Steel Stacks if you wanted to take a longer walk and enjoy the views. The pictures accurately portray the spotless apartment. The kitchen is small, but has all the essentials for meal prep, although with all the fabulous restaurants just steps away, why cook! The bedroom on the second level is spacious and the mattress very comfortable. The en suite vintage bathroom is roomy as it is quaint. The water pressure for an older building is excellent. Only caveat for those with mobility issues is the traditional steep PA staircase leading up to the bedroom and only bathroom on the second level. It is carpeted though for surer footing. No issues with the Wifi throughout the apartment. We enjoyed our stay and would return when visiting Bethlehem again.
