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!

Excellent Apartment

I had a lovely stay at this apartment. My partner and I were delighted to find a fully stocked kitchen of utensils, pans, plates, and even some seasonings! The apartment feels quite cozy yet spacious for our needs. The property manager was always available if we needed them. The tv, couch, and bedroom were wonderful.

Perfect!

I spent a very warm weekend in June 2025 at this property because it is near the ferry to Martha's Vineyard, where I wanted to spend a day. The decor is lovely. Everything is a little bit nicer than it has to be, and I noticed many details that made me smile. Check in was easy, Yens was responsive, and I have no complaints!
