Wonderful location and home
There was a ton to do within a few blocks of the house - coffee shops, restaurants, even a concert venue that we checked out.

Great easy stay, small stairs, fantastic bed! Shades for skylights in bedroom would be nice. Food and drinks close by which was great but also Friday night party goers were a bit loud. Easy access walking distances to historic places was fantastic! Seriously LOVED the bed, very comfortable! I would stay again for sure!

Perfect Philly Adobe
Everything about this lodging is great and unique to Philly. The location is fabulous, everything is clean and comfy, the place is well-appointed, and the charm of the Trinity House-style can not be beat.

We loved our time here! After a delay in our flight, we arrived later than expected, but Colleen helped us check in with ease. The house was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed! It was as described, and there were great restaurants and sites nearby. We’d love to come back again!
