About this property

Spacious bedroom in Gladwyne close to main line colleges, center city and more

Great size bedroom with reading nook, couch to watch TV, microwave, mini fridge and coffee set up. Room overlooks a koi pond and the house is set in a peaceful small private lane over Mill Creek. Note that we have a 17 lb Corgipoo named Dior who is protective of the house. She makes a lot of noise but only wants a belly rub! Please let us know if you don’t want to meet her during your stay. Enjoy!

I really enjoyed my time at Carolyn's property. The room was spacious, clean and well appointed. There were many thoughtful extras--super comfortable bed, dishes, comfortable sofa, large closet, snacks, large TV, good internet and a very nice bathroom next to the room. It was a wonderful place to come home to after a busy day out and about.

This was perfect for my weekend away. The room was very clean and cozy, the bed was comfortable, and there were great areas to get some work done and relax all in the same space. And this lovely home is in a beautiful and convenient part of the Philadelphia suburbs. I loved it. Carolyn was an excellent host who made coordinating easy and was a pleasure to communicate with. I would definitely stay here again when I'm in the area. Thank you for being such a great host!

I really cannot say how grateful I was to the hosts. They were able to accommodate a sleep-deprived person just off a red-eye flight. The hosts were approachable and wonderful to talk to, but also gave me plenty of space. Thank you again!

The host was super friendly, welcoming, accommodating and had great recommendations! The property was beautiful, well taken care of and in a nice neighborhood. We were only there for a brief stay to see a show at the Ardmore Music Hall (which was only about 6 min by car), but I would definitely stay here again.
