Property was as described, a short 12 minute walk to downtown. Charlie was a superhost and responded quickly to any questions. Would definitely stay there again should I travel to Philly with my family; it was a great place to host my 5 adults children.

Great location and accurate posting. Had everything we needed and was clean. We had a small issue getting in, but the hosts were super communicative and available to fix things quickly.

Clean comfortable spacious rooms and bathrooms. A lot of street noise, but it is city living. There are a lot of stairs but again it is a city dwelling so expected. But would be difficult for someone with mobility issues. Owner communicates well and is very attentive.It is a good location for walking distance to several sightseeing areas. 15 to 20 minutes to most areas.

Great location. Description and photos are accurate. Host was easy to message. Large pay parking lot a block or so away if street parking isn’t available. We were a family group (parent, grandmother, aunt, and brother) in town for a graduation. I’d recommend for anyone.

This is a nice property in a great location. Easy walk to train and Giant grocery store. Very friendly and helpful folks next door that run a florist shop.

Everything was as advertised. The home was in walking distance to my niece’s apt and convenient walk, Uber or subway for everything we did.

clean, modern home

Had a great time staying in this home. We rented to house staff for an event in downtown Philly. House was perfect - extremely clean and well furnished. Hosts were responsive and helpful throughout. Assuming our event is in Philly again, would definitely try to book this spot again.

The house feels a lot bigger in the inside that when what it looks in the outside, everything was exactly as listed. The checkout process was by far one of the easiest ones I’ve had so far. The communication with the host was excellent. The only available parking is street parking (as stated in the listing). However, parking was extremely limited given the events (FIFA world cup and America’s 250 celebration). We ended up using SpotHero to get long-term parking nearby. We were able to walk everywhere from the location, it’s very conveniently located.

Great option for a stay in Philly!

We really enjoyed our stay at Philly Town House: 12 Min walk to Center City. Pros: Great location, comfortable, clean, roomy, well appointed, fully stocked kitchen, great communication with property manager, amazing view from the rooftop. Cons: super busy road, parking can be a challenge, lots of road noise (it didn't particularly bother us, but it is definitely noticeable), no furniture on the rooftop. Will definitely stay again!

Andrea, Thank you so much for the thoughtful and detailed review! I'm thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay at the Philly Town House and that the location, comfort, cleanliness, and rooftop view all hit the mark! It’s especially great to hear that communication and the fully stocked kitchen added to your experience—those are top priorities for me! I really appreciate you mentioning the road noise and rooftop furniture—definitely helpful feedback, and I’m always looking for ways to improve. Parking can be a bit tricky in the city, but I’m so glad it didn’t take away from your overall experience. I’d be absolutely delighted to host you again anytime you're back in Philly!

The property is great - perfect for large family or small group. Neighborhood is sketchy and was a little concerning when we first arrived but once inside we were very comfortable. Walking distance (15min) to Chinatown and Reading Terminal and other center city sites.
