Cute place! Perfect size for our group of 3 adults. Kitchen was nicely equiped. Everything is within walking distance from the house. The cons of this house are the small bathrooms and the upstairs neighbors can be heard all hours of the day and night.

This property is advertised as "sleeps 6" but I do not think that is an accurate description. There are two bedrooms that comfortably accommodate 4 adults and 1 couch that fits 1 small adult or child. The adult who slept on the couch reported having a really hard time sleeping due to discomfort and cleanliness. Additionally, there were no sheets provided for the pull out couch. We noticed this up on arrival and messaged the host. The host informed us that someone would deliver sheets soon and that never happened during our 3 night stay. The couch that was slept on without sheets was not hygienic and there were a lot of stains that made us uncomfortable. Additionally on the last night during our stay there was a mouse in the living room. No food was left out by us that would have attracted it. I notified the host about our grievances and no satisfactory resolution was achieved.

Very small unit
The bed was very comfortable however the unit was very small. We had purchased a couple bags of chips to find out mice had chewed their way in to them to partake. Just glad we didn’t see them. The unit was small and overpriced.
Cute 2 bedroom, I liked the Halloween theme for my daughter. Parking is tight but doable, we had a small suv. Very tiny bathrooms but we made it work.

I stayed here with three adults who each needed their own bed. There are two large bedrooms and a fold-out couch. There are two bathrooms, but they are cramped. This was fine for us, but might not work for a larger person. The location is phenomenal - walking distance to downtown Salem. Off-street parking is also a huge plus

Good, but not advertised correctly
The property was clean, well stocked, and the owners were very communicative. The bathrooms were a bit small, but were clean and stocked. HOWEVER. This is a downstairs unit. People live full time upstairs. They have 2 dogs and a kid. You can hear them running around all the time. We stayed 3 nights, and were woken up all 3 mornings at 6:00am. Also, one night we couldn’t sleep because they were up until 1:00am and we could hear yelling on occasion. I was disappointed that It was advertised as no pets and quiet hours, as the upstairs tenants didn’t have to abide by this as well. If we knew ahead of time we a least would have been prepared. The owners spoke with the tenants multiple times for us, but that didn’t do anything.

Inaccurate listing
There were quite a few complaints but I will summarize the top few.1. The pictures and written description of the property are extremely deceptive from the actual property. The location is less than desirable- the parking is almost a hazard with a power pole located in the middle of the driveway. Do not drive anything larger than a small SUV to this home.2. The upstairs tenants are loud starting at 6am, there’s a dog and a child that seem to run from one end of the house to the other. Every footstep is heard throughout the day/night.3. Cleanliness is marginal. There were clumps of hair, toenail clippings and old hair ties underneath the bed. The couch is filthy and covered in stains.4. Bathrooms are almost unmanageable in size. To say they were small would be an understatement. One of the bathrooms does not have a vanity light so if you are trying to put in contacts or do your makeup,you cannot.5. VRBO hosts have great communication and the bedding seemed clean. Other than that- would not recommend or stay again.Sad to say I have never written a negative review before this one and it was hard to write but wanted to inform.

Perfect for a girls trip weekend
As soon as we entered, we immediately noticed how clean it smelled and looked in the apartment and we really appreciated the little touches that was left such as games to play and popcorn cups left for the four of us. The location is great and the decorations around the apartment were an amazing added touch!

Great Location, Lovely Property
We loved this adorably decorated, clean property. Luckily we had nice weather and Salem is a walkable town, so we often walked in to dine out and visit the shops since parking was difficult to find. Other reviews mentioned the narrowness of the driveway and the pole on the street at the end of the driveway; we had two sizable SUVs and didn’t have any issues. The kitchen is a good size and we enjoyed the coffee bar, plus the coffee shop just a block or so away. Bedrooms are a great size, too. As noted, bathrooms are a little tight but it was nice having two to use. Overall, we were very happy with the property, a little gem in a great location. We would stay here again!

Great trip
Overall great stay, my daughters loved the decor and little Halloween fun! Pros: close to Salem attractions, communication was very clear, spooky decor, and house was clean. Cons which are completely out of the owners control: house is very small, bathrooms are a tight fit, driveway also snug with pole at end of driveway (we were able to fit RAV4 Toyota beside it but anything bigger might be hard), and footsteps from upstairs (adult & pet or child). It is an older home so those things are to be expected. The owners were very responsive and you can tell they take care of their home. We appreciate the sharing of their home!

This property is really cute. The house was built in 1870 so it is quirky but well maintained. We came in August and struggled to be comfortable temperature wise with the window units. This place would be ideal in cooler months. The host was fantastic and communicative.

Great location!
5 stars! The location was perfect for us - close to downtown, walking distance. We drove up to Gloucester one day for whale watching (which was incredible!) and also went to the beach. It was an easy walk to the train station that took us right into Boston. The property had all the amenities we needed for the three nights we were there. Cutely decorated and the hospitality was great. Agree with the comments on tight parking but we did have a mini van which made it easy for the kids to get in and out. Would recommend this location for anyone visiting the Salem/Boston area.

I would copy out that you can tell this is an older home, but that gives it a lot of charm! It’s also further from the downto Cute area close to the water and a park. It would be great for kids because of this! wn than we were expecting, but in

2 nights in Salem
The home was beautifully decorated and, despite its small size, we found it comfortable for our two-night stay. The master bedroom and second bedroom were cozy, each equipped with air conditioning units in the windows, which was a relief during the hot weather. However, the bathrooms were quite small; my husband, who is 6'4" and over 200 lbs, found them uncomfortably tight. Caution is advised with the electrical outlets in the bedrooms as they were loose from the wall. While the location wasn't within walking distance to many attractions, a short drive was sufficient. The parking space, suitable only for a small car, was complicated by a electical pole at the end of it, which made navigating very difficult. All in all, we had a very nice stay. Salem is a lovely town full of history.

The unit worked well for our family of four adults and two children. The kids played in the nice park down the street one morning. It was a short drive to the center of Salem.

adorable, but...
Very well decorated, but very small spaces. Very clean, but the bathroom off the kitchen needed some lighting and other fixes. The tub had been painted and a rubber bath mat did not completely conceal the peeling paint. First time I reached for toilet paper, the holder literally came off the wall. No light above the vanity made it hard to put on makeup.
The master bedroom, bath was small, but in good repair. However the electrical outlet above the bed was coming off the wall. Same thing with the electrical outlet in bedroom two. I was afraid to use the guest room outlets as I thought it might be a fire hazard. When reported to the owners, they said: No one ever mentioned those things before.
Also the parking space is for a very tiny car. We were in a mini van and couldn't open the doors once parked, so we opted for street parking. Also at the end of the parking spot was a telephone pole which was hard to navigate around.
The family upstairs was sweet and friendly, but we heard every move they made. The neighbors next door had ducks....yes....ducks in the backyard. Quack, Quack.
