"My family and I really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again. Great neighborhood, very walkable, and the place itself was lovely. What really made it stand out to us as a family with young children was all the amenities available for kids like the stair gate, high chair, pack and play, books, etc. it really saved us a ton of packing. Game room in the basement was a hit with my husband and daughter. Hosts were very responsive and responded to all questions and concerns immediately, and also reached out multiple times throughout the stay to make sure we were doing OK. Highly recommend for families." - Jayanti

Bright and cheery home in a cute neighborhood with many restaurants in walking distance. Eastern penitentiary was so close and brought great history to the area. Beds were comfortable, lots of space, ample amount of new towels and house hold accessories(hand soap, coffee, kitchen supplies etc.) Hosts were quick to respond to questions and very helpful through the booking process. Would definitely book this property again.

I stayed here for the next 2 treatments at the Perelman center. The location was absolutely perfect. There were a ton of fantastic restaurants close by within walking distance and the drive to the center was only 18 minutes. I highly recommend staying here rather than a hotel close to the center.
