The property was in a wonderful location with free street parking during the weekend, which was wonderful for our large pick up. It was also wonderful that the property had a ground floor living area with only 4-5 steps for the entry, since we were bringing in our bikes for the Philly Bike ride on the 19th. The living area was large and comfortable, with cable tv, and there was a small enclosed yard. The bedrooms were as described and beds were comfortable. Check in was easy as were check out instructions. The only caution I’d give to future guests is that this property is currently for sale, and supplies were a little spotty - no soap for the showers, no dishwashing detergent. We were fine for our short stay but good to ask about this if you;re staying longer. We absolutely loved the neighborhood though! Great parks and friendly restaurants nearby, coffee shops, and close to transit. Would definitely stay there again! ##### Ann W. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Theonita C.

Jun 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Weekend Trip for a Music Festival The place was well decorated with high end appliances and furnishings. However, it was lacking a few basic amenities. There was no iron, only 3 face clothes (for a place that sleeps 7) and only 1/3 a roll of papertowel. It appeared to be clean but there was a lot of hair in the bathrooms and an ant problem. Parking was terrible, but ig that's typical for the area. Unless you're prepared to walk a few blocks to and from your vehicle, this may not be the best option for you. All that being said, the issues where minor and im sure the owner would be willing to address them. I would recommend and book again. ##### Sunni S.

The third floor bedrooms were unacceptable. The owners belongings are still around VRBO put him on the phone with me when I was complaining, which was totally unacceptable. And the owner was yelling at me. The dishwasher was broken, we ran out of toilet paper, there was a Christmas ornament under a table, there was no lightbulb in the reading area. My suggestion is find a different place and maybe use a different company. ##### Denise d.

It looked like someone moved out quickly so we could rent the home. The linens were fresh but that was all. I wish I could post the pics I took. Molded coffee grounds were in the coffee maker. Months of dust & dirty clothes under the master bed. Windows were so dirty we didn’t open them for fresh air. The dishwasher doesn’t work properly so we rewashed the items inside before using. The shag rug hadn’t been vacuumed. It took 8 days to find the tv remote stuck in the couch under a blanket. I have requested my cleaning fee to be refunded since cleaning fees are supposed to ensure the rental is clean but Anthony has not gotten back to me about that. ##### Kenneth S.

Jul 17, 2022 Liked: Communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in #### Philly Trip Pros: Really enjoyed the neighborhood and the surrounding area. Lots of quality walkable restaurants. Other main attractions were a short uber ride away. Parking was a bit challenging but not a major issue. Cons: As noted in the one review, the overall cleanliness was poor, and this home has a lot of unfinished work that needs to be completed i.e. vents w/o covers, missing wood in the upstairs floor, etc. The sofa in the main room was highly stained, and overall furniture quality was poor and or dirty. The sink in the main floor powder room had a significant crack in it. The master bedroom lamps had no light bulbs. There were 2 frying pans, that were highly scratched and unusable. We stripped the sheets on one of the beds (then stopped) bc the mattress had multiple stains on it. There's more but you get the idea. This could be a great VRBO but it needs to be made clean and comfortable for future guests who plan on having a clean home to enjoy on their trip. ##### Adam G. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan G. Nov 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Neighborhood/Location I was hesitant to book this place because of the mixed reviews, but I can say that, overall, it was a great stay. Here’s the rundown of our experience: - Great location in a great neighborhood. Easy walk to everything… grocery, coffee, and lots of nice restaurants. Definitely felt safe in the home and in the neighborhood. - Home is very spacious and linens were clean. King and queen bed were comfortable. The third bedroom is two twin beds and totally set up for children, so not so comfortable for adults. Also, heat rises, so the third floor (where the twin bedroom is) gets very toasty. We think that there is a fourth bedroom up there with a futon (based on what the listing says), but it was locked. - The home is for sale and it is obvious that the owner’s priority is staging it to sell, not making it a special vacation rental. Aside from the quirky things that other reviews listed (hole in the floor, huge crack in the sink, and other unfinished remodeling projects), it is missing things like garbage cans in the bathrooms, hand towels in the kitchen, toilet paper holders, and other amenities that make you feel like a valued guest. They’ve got random stuff crammed in the corner of the kitchen, tiles stacked on the countertop, and multiple drawers in the kitchen are full of tools and random personal items. Ultimately, despite some of the quirks, I would stay here again. ##### Megan G. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Courtney G. Aug 25, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy #### Worst VRBO experience to date My family and I recently booked this property as out of town travelers who would be staying in the city for my 1 year old’s surgery at CHOP. We decided to book a home instead of our usual hotel so that we could have more room as my parents and oldest son would also be joining us. To put it mildly, this has been the worst VRBO experience, by far. I am a frequent traveler with VRBO and therefore, decided to take the risk of booking a property that was a “new listing” and had no customer reviews. That was a mistake and my hope is to accurately represent the property so that other travelers do not have the same experience. Review of the home and major complaints: ⁃ strong, musty odor immediately upon entry into the home ⁃ Hole in flooring upstairs- HUGE safety hazard ⁃ used/dirty washcloth left in shower which we discovered upon arrival - large stains on both living room chairs which deterred us from using them - bright red stains on bed linens on 3rd floor bedroom (Note: this bedroom was not pictured in the VRBO listing and therefore cannot be “compared”. The room was not represented visually whatsoever.) - The AC in the home was only cooling on the 1st level and therefore, the sleeping quarters on floors 2 and 3 were not habitable due to the heat. The owner was adamant that the unit was “properly functioning” and that very well may be- but to me, that is irrelevant as I can PROMISE you, the bedrooms on floors 2 and 3 were beyond uncomfortable. The issue isn’t that the unit is “not broken”- the issue is that it is not sufficient. Especially when the outdoor temperature is 95+. The main floor temperature was not an issue, but unless 5 adults and 2 small children- one of which recovering from major surgery- slept in the kitchen/living room… we would have been miserable. Needless to say, we chose to pay for hotel accommodations and I am out a pretty penny as the owner refused to give validity to any of my concerns and therefore, refused any reimbursement. (Thank goodness my credit card company agreed to reimburse me in full after supplying proof of misrepresentation). As you can see in the host's responses to other reviews, I was told multiple times that my complaints were unfounded and that this home is worth "X"- which is irrelevant. However, the most ridiculous (and insulting) part was his conclusion that my complaints were due to being "nervous" about my daughter's surgery. Insane. I would not recommend this property to travelers. ##### Courtney G.
