"My family and I really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again. Great neighborhood, very walkable, and the place itself was lovely. What really made it stand out to us as a family with young children was all the amenities available for kids like the stair gate, high chair, pack and play, books, etc. it really saved us a ton of packing. Game room in the basement was a hit with my husband and daughter. Hosts were very responsive and responded to all questions and concerns immediately, and also reached out multiple times throughout the stay to make sure we were doing OK. Highly recommend for families." - Jayanti

Gabe & Jon’s place was perfect for our little 2-family trip to Philly! The property was spacious, clean and comfortable. Parking was super easy on the street. Their communication really stood out as well, answering any questions we had super quick. Would definitely stay there again! Thank you!

Hi Christopher,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you and your family had a great stay and enjoyed the home's spaciousness, comfort, and convenience. We truly appreciate your kind words about our communication—it’s always our goal to make sure our guests feel supported throughout their stay.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back to Philly anytime!
What a charming house in a charming neighborhood! Parking was a little difficult because of World Cup events but the hosts were very responsive and helpful (and let us know the closest pay lot). We had a great stay! We would stay here again if future trips bring us to Philly.
Group of six adults in town for fundraiser. House was in a great neighborhood with lots of places to walk to. Street parking was not an issue for us. House was in great shape. It has a nice patio in the back and the street was quiet. Hosts provided lots of information at the time of booking and while we stayed for the weekend, a nice large kitchen with everything you would need.
The property was clean and as expected from the description. It was in a nice neighborhood, super comfortable and parking was easy to find on street. Great stay and hosts were easy and quick to communicate with. 10/10 would recommend!
Location was great! Close to all of the main attractions. Parking on the street was not hard to find. There was lots of space, large kitchen and comfortable beds. We had some issues with the fire alarms, but this was quickly addressed by hosts. There was excellent communication throughout our stay.
Bright and cheery home in a cute neighborhood with many restaurants in walking distance. Eastern penitentiary was so close and brought great history to the area. Beds were comfortable, lots of space, ample amount of new towels and house hold accessories(hand soap, coffee, kitchen supplies etc.) Hosts were quick to respond to questions and very helpful through the booking process. Would definitely book this property again.

Lovely, well-kept property near the museum area and not too far from Center City. The owners are very thoughtful and responded rapidly to our few questions bother before and during our stay. We're stay here again in a heartbeat which is the highest praise I can offer.

Location for radiation treatment at Perelman Advanced Medical center
I stayed here for the next 2 treatments at the Perelman center. The location was absolutely perfect. There were a ton of fantastic restaurants close by within walking distance and the drive to the center was only 18 minutes. I highly recommend staying here rather than a hotel close to the center.
