Cozy little studio apartment with everything you need for a weekend getaway to Lancaster city. Close to all the restaurants, galleries, shopping and nightlife.
The Stevens studio was perfect for my 3 day trip to Lancaster! Convenient to everything downtown, clean and cozy. It had everything o needed and was very comfortable. I’ll stay here again when I’m back in Lancaster.
The property was just as described and the location in the historic district perfect for our weekend stay in the city. I would say that the only negative was the lack of soundproofing with respect to the neighbors (voices as well as movement across old wooden floorboards:-) ), so if you are a light sleeper, this may be an issue for you.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this studio apartment in Lancaster. It was clean and comfortable. We were able to walk to many restaurants and stores. Vincent was very responsive to any questions we had.
High marks for cleanliness, comfort, and convenience. My only suggestions for improvement are: coffee filters, new batteries in the ceiling fan remote control, conditioner in the shower, and a full length mirror somewhere.
