Before we left for our trip our dog had a seizure. The host was very supportive knowing we may have to cancel. Luckily she recover. The house was spotless, the back patio was charming and the location was right between the historic area and the Italian market, near a bus line, and there were lots of restaurants nearby although we cooked at the house. Highly recommend this as a place to stay!!!

quaint cozy and perfect location
tucked on a quiet little alleyway just far enough off south street to not hear a thing, but close enough for a 2 minute walk, this spot is a perfect stop for a family or small group of friends. it feels bright and airy while also feeling intimate. the patio was a favorite spot for evening chats, the beds were comfy, and the kitchen had all the necessary tools. highly recommend if you’relooking for a home away from home in a part of town full of shops, restaurants and street art.

Easy access to historic Philly
The home is lovely and easily accessible to the historic parts of Philly. We walked everywhere. Lots of restaurants on both the main streets on either side of the house. The neighborhood is nice and quiet.

Great place, great location
Clean and comfortable space in a great location. There is no onsite parking and overnight street parking is limited, but we found the garage nearby to be easy and reasonably priced. Note to people traveling with young children: the stairs are pretty steep.

Wonderful Rowhouse in a Great Neighborhood
We spent a weekend at the house and loved it. Despite being right next to a ton of shops and restaurants, it's on a quiet alley with amazing mosaics. The house is well-stocked and well-maintained.Of course, you must make some concessions for the age of the building and neighborhood. The stairs in are pretty steep, the shower pressure is weak, and the alley is so narrow that driving down it is precarious. But when you're staying a few blocks away from where the Declaration of Independence was signed, that's the price you pay and we were happy to pay it.Communication with the management company, and check-in/check-out process, was as smooth as it gets.We would definitely stay again.

Comfortable apartment well located in the city
We were in town with family to attend a number of sports events in Philadelphia. This apartment was a comfortable home-base for our two night stay. It was well equipped with everything needed for our stay. Parking is definitely limited, but well described by the host, and so you should plan for some additional cost in your trip if you're planning to drive. The apartment is in a neighborhood with amenities and a reasonable walk to the old city center. We would consider staying here again in the future.

Weekend in Philly
Absolutely Loved! Location was top notch, we were able to walk conveniently to restaurants for brunch and awesome local pubs in Old City. The hosts description for parking was more than accurate. Luckily we were able to find street parking less than a block away but noticed a pay to park lot and garage very close if we would have needed it. The uber ride to Fairmont Park was easy and convenient as well. The property over all was lovely. Very clean, spacious and inviting. The neighborhood was tucked away from all the hustle & bustle which made the stay very private & enjoyable! We briefly met the neighbors and they were more than personable & kind. (Their dog was super friendly) This is a yearly trip for us & we will most definitely try to book this property again!
