This location was a 5 min drive to Salem but also a 25 min walk there! It was clean, cute and a good size. I felt relaxed as I could just look out the window and see my lively hood of the neighborhood :) The host was great with instructions and communication.

Charming character

Very appropriate to Salem. Quite dated but beautifully decorated with various Halloween related items. I wish it had more than 1 or at least bigger bathroom. Very cozy. Minutes drive from historic district and to many great restaurants, but not a walking distance.

Quick stay in Salem

We decided to stay two nights in Salem to break up our drive to Maine. We are a family of five, set of 17 year old twins (boy/girl) and a 11 year old (girl). This house was perfect. Extremely clean, lots of room, and well stocked with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The owner was responsive and had clear communication. The house is minutes from town. Would recommend to friends and family.

Short stay

My husband and I were traveling with our small dog. The apartment was clean and comfortable and the host and his friend were very helpful and nice. The apartment is on the 3rd floor of an apartment house which is not clear when booking unless you read the fine print. The stairs and remainder of the building were not as clean or pleasant.but the actual apartment was nice

Cozy Apartment in Salem

My family and I reserved the apartment for the weekend while visiting Boston as it was close. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to visit Salem. The location was easy to find, parking was confusing but after speaking with Micahel he was able to direct us to the right areas. My sister and I did have an issue with one of the residents on the street when we were told to park as they tried to block our cars in but that was at no fault to the host. The apartment was as described on the website and we would stay again if visiting Salem.

Terrible location and odor

We actually did not stay. There was a bad odor in the building and the steps to the 3rd floor apartment were too narrow for us to navigate with luggage. Please refund. We had to go to an expensive hotel $500 for the night. We are two over 65 years old women.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 Oct 2024
Sandra and her guest never entered the apartment or stayed at the property because they were unable to find the key box located next to the door of the apartment. The stairwells meet modern safety codes and are large enough to carry refrigerators, couches and stoves so I’m not sure what kind of luggage they were carrying that would not fit. They immediately left and did not give any chance to remediate an odor in the buildings hallway.

Great location for family stay in Salem

Our family of four was in town for a baby shower, and this was the perfect location to easily access all the fun of Salem. There was plenty of space for everyone to relax, and the kitchen was well stocked with supplies. There are two flights of narrow stairs, which would be very hard for anyone with mobility issues to navigate, but I appreciated that this information was included in the listing. My only feedback would be that we checked in on a very warm day, and none of the fans or AC units were on when we arrived (so it took quite a while for the house to cool down). But once everything was running it was very comfortable.

Miranda, thank you for staying with us. We apologize for the house being so warm. There is also an AC installed in the master bedroom as well that helps to cool the house. If you message us next time I will give you a discounted stay!
