Don't just take our word for it, here are some kind words from our past guests-

"My family and I really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again. Great neighborhood, very walkable, and the place itself was lovely. What really made it stand out to us as a family with young children was all the amenities available for kids like the stair gate, high chair, pack and play, books, etc. it really saved us a ton of packing. Game room in the basement was a hit with my husband and daughter. Hosts were very responsive and responded to all questions and concerns immediately, and also reached out multiple times throughout the stay to make sure we were doing OK. Highly recommend for families." - Jayanti

Charming house with walking distance to restaurants
We were a family of 5. Two adults with an 18, 19 and 20 year old. There was plenty of room for us all. The house was very clean and the restrooms/shower were wonderful. The beds were comfortable. The game room was an extra bonus space where we liked to have Pac Man competition at the end of the day!! We walked to several restaurants during our stay. We had a car rental. I thought it would be tough to find on street parking as a lot of cars are parked on the street, but no matter the time of day, even late at night, we were always able to get a spot close to the house. If I ever go back, we will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful place!
Our stay in Philadelphia was lovely, the location was perfect and very central to the places we wanted to go (driving was usually 15 min or less!). Parking was a challenge, but that was expected from the listing description and the location in general. Hosts were super responsive to any questions we had, and they made the stay incredibly easy. The house fit our family of four perfectly, a comfortable lodging with plenty of space for us to eat and sleep. Super fun to stay in such a skinny home! We would definitely stay here again!

Kid friendly and spacious house
Our kids loved the basement with the games. The house was very spacious and met our needs for a family of five. I'm glad that they had a high chair and pack and play available for use. The owners were really responsive to questions we had.
