The apartment was clean, well equipped and conveniently located for our needs. The street was a relatively quiet one, making parking easy. We would stay again if returning to the area.
We really liked the area - quiet - spacious apartment
Nice attention to details . Had a full kitchen with dishes etc. one suggestion is for host to provide a muffin pan.
My son and I had a wonderful stay! The apartment was well situated, comfortable, clean and spacious. The area was safe and charming with many Portuguese bakeries and restaurants near by. Onsite parking was great! One of the highlights of our trip was attending Mass at the historic St. Anthony of Padua Church. The interior was breathtaking and the parishioners were very kind. Host Yens was very responsive. Everything went smoothly and we will definitely stay again if we ever revisit New Bedford!
The only "problem" we faced was checking in. I was sent photos of the door and key box, given the code for the keybox, and told to please park on the street. When we arrived, we parked on the street in front of the building, but could not find the appropriate door. We were confused because there were 2 doors in the front, one having the number we were given, however, we could not find the key box nearby. Fortunately a woman came out of the building, and we asked her for help. She advised us the door to the rental apartment was at the back of the building. Once we found it, we quickly found the key box and were able to get in. It would have been nice if we had been told the door was located at the back of the building, and to park on the side street. The apartment is a third-floor walk up. It was just perfect for our needs. A Nor'easter storm hit while we were there, and we spent one day cozy in the apartment. It was nice to have the kitchen to cook in. Everything was as shown in the photos. We enjoyed our stay here very much

Super cute, very clean, cozy little place! Just right for our anniversary weekend. Easy access to Uber. We spent a day in Newport which is just a short drive away & Fall River as well. Definitely would stay here again!!
10/10! We had a wonderful stay there. It was the perfect place for us to stay at in order to explore New Bedford and Boston. Our host was most helpful and very quick to communicate and answer any questions that we had.
Had a great stay! The apartment was conveniently located to everything we needed, and was fully fitted with every convenience that you could need. Was very comfortable and cozy. Would stay again and recommend!
This was very nice, super clean and host was accomadating and answered our concerns quickly. We are elderly so the stairs were a bit much to the 3rd floor, but now we are in much better shape
Yens was very responsive and the apartment was quite nice. The bed in the master bedroom was super comfortable. I would recommend it to others staying in the area.
