Check in was simple. I did have to reach out to get the info to check in, but it was very clear and included a video which was very informative and the host replied very quickly. The place was clean, beautiful and comfortable. Conveniently located in Rittenhouse Square. Would definitely stay again for future Philly trips!
We had an overall good stay at this VRBO. The host was excellent with communication—quick to respond, clear instructions, and made the entire process smooth. Check-in was especially easy and hassle-free, which we really appreciated after a long day of travel.The location is also a big plus. It’s conveniently situated and made getting around very easy, whether walking or driving to nearby spots.The only downside is the noise level. Being on the first floor, you can hear people coming and going at all hours, especially late at night and early in the morning. If you’re a light sleeper, this could definitely impact your stay.Overall, a solid option if you value convenience and a responsive host, but just be aware of the noise if that’s something that matters to you.
The unit is very nice and we greatly appreciated the vintage period architecture. Location is excellent!! It is one block off Rittenhouse square and is very quite. In the neighborhood there is a ton of excellent restaurants, including My Loup directly across the street which just received a Michelin recommendation.
