First floor -- living room with high ceilings eat-in kitchen and French doors to a small private patio.

Second floor - Two bedrooms are separated by a super small study with two separate doors to each of the bedrooms. One bedroom has access to this study.

Third Floor -- Two bedrooms one on each end of the hall. The front bedroom has two doors, one to the hall, one to the bathroom. The bathroom on this floor is in the middle of the floor with two doors, one to the front bathroom and one to the hall accessible for the back bedroom.

The house has central air and hardwood floors throughout.

We fell in love with this bright and airy corner town home's high ceilings, original details, and amazing desirable location.

We've aimed to furnish the entire house for a comfortable stay while maintaining this historical house's charm and details.

The beds are made with freshly laundered sheets, towels, and of course, cleaned for your stay.

We purchased this home after enjoying hosting a smaller house nearby that is my parents' primary home when they are in the United States. We hope you will enjoy your stay in this new house during your visit to Philadelphia. Please note we do not allow for local guests. Please let me know the reason for your visit.

Older building (circa 1900), three stories, creaky floors and steps, unit is as it is appears.We loved the location -- easy walk to the historical parts of the city we wanted (20-30 minutes) and we felt safe in the neighborhood. Parking one block away for 25/day.I've stayed in many newer/nicer VRBOs, and gave it 5 stars brecause it was described as such. If that is what you are expecting, you will love this property. If you expect modern luxury, this isn't the property for you -- but we would stay again in a heartbeat.Thank you!

Delightful house on a relatively quiet street in a fantastic neighborhood. Communication was prompt and access and departure was seemless. Wish we could have stayed longer and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Charming home

This house is in a great location, close to many restaurants and historical locations. Parking garages are less than a block away and are easy to use. Ample space for a large family or a group of friends. Home is clean and check-in was a breeze. Beds are a bit stiff, but that's just a personal preference. Highly recommend!!

Great Place

Such a charming house in a great neighborhood. The only setback for us was there was no parking for our rental car but there is a parking garage across the street that we used. We really enjoyed the house.

Short stay for a Phillies game

Overall impressions were clean and comfortable. Plenty of beds. Location for a phillies game was a quick uber ride. We used a parking garage right down the street for the night which was convenient. Only trouble we had was I thought the locks for the two doors was dofficult. We managed. Would stay again!

It was a wonderful place for two couples and our daughter!! We had a great stay in a nice neighborhood. House is older (so it shows its years), but you are in a historical city. There is lots of room for all. Communication was AMAZING with the owner and we appreciated the prompt responses and flexibility.

Cozy condo in the city

We had a great stay! We were taking a long road trip and needed a place to stay for one night along the way. Condo was perfect. Very cozy decor, plenty of space for my family of 4 to spread out. Near great restaurants within a very short walk. Parking next door. Had all the amenities. Owners super responsive and made sure we were all set for the stay. Even double checked to make sure we parked in a legit lot. Only downside is beds were super firm but I think that is a personal preference. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Weekend Stay

Overall a good choice and would stay again. Great location in Rittenhouse Square area. House is old but has been partially updated. Could have been cleaner as baseboards and top of fridge were quite dirty. Kitchen was sufficiently stocked with coffee machines, dishes, pots, pans, silverware. Floors and stairs are creaky, old, and appear dirty. Beds were.hard as other reviewers noted, but adequate. Really the location is the driving reason to stay here. Heck in/out was easy.

Great neighborhood

This is a cozy and charming house in a great neighborhood and easily walkable to the convention center and nearby restaurants. The beds were overly firm for most of us, but we all slept fine. Bathrooms are tiny and have no vanity space, so make sure that you have portability for your toiletries.

Quick Trip to Philly

Our family decided to take a quick stop in Philly on our way to our final destination in New Jersey. This was the perfect spot. We were halfway between the historical Liberty bell and independence hall and the Franklin Museum and Rocky steps. The place was so clean and so cute and Sophie was so easy to reach and quick to respond to our questions. Would definitely stay here again.
