Mr. Whips Family Fun House 3,000 Sq Ft Game unit with arcade room and rear yard

Great family location

The host was very quick to respond when we had any questions. The space was clean and organized.

Mr. Whips house is AMAZING!!!! Communication was swift and on point. He even has a vehicle you can rent!!! Kitchen was fully stocked and the place was clean!!!

We had a fantastic stay and couldn’t have asked for a better place. The space was incredibly roomy, giving everyone plenty of room to spread out and relax. Our kids were thrilled with the video games and stayed happily entertained throughout the trip. The location was perfect, just a short distance from everything we wanted to see and do. The kitchen was also exceptionally well stocked, which made cooking and mealtime a breeze.We’d happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and family-friendly home base. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Everything meet my expectation. My family was very happy. Thanks

The house was clean, kitchen is fully loaded for cooking. It is filled with fun games. Host is great at communication.

Parking was available. Lots of room. Good location

We stayed at this property with Scouts, and they loved it. The location was good, as it was about a 15-minute drive to most city parking garages and about a 20-minute walk to the subway near Temple University, which went directly to the baseball stadium. The kitchen was well stocked with a nice coffee bar (which the leaders appreciated). The scouts enjoyed the games and chill atmosphere. We stayed at this property with the Scouts, and they loved it.

Had an amazing time. I was pleasantly surprised at how much there was to do in house. The kitchen was clean, the bathrooms were clean, everything was neat and tidy. It was a quick 10-15 minute walk to downtown Fishtown. Check-in was extremely quick and easy.

Great stay for me and my family, beautiful home

Needs at least one full body mirror.

Our stay was ok but not worth it, plus my post check out experience was frustrating! This is a fun house, not necessarily comfortable but entertaining. It has personality. The biggest ding for me is the showers: old, nasty shower curtains and mold in the tiles of the main BR, shower. It was freezing most of the time! There’s small outlet heaters in the basement but they don’t work well. Turning the thermostat up made the kitchen an inferno. The bedding is cheap/thin. Found extras in the closet the 2nd night. Pillows also very flat. This was my 2nd stay after several years. Small things needed repair, you could just tell from a lot of wear/tear overtime. Some activities were not fully functional but most were so we made it work. The internal door knob was also loose but still locked fine so I figured it was part of other minor repairs needed. Cabinets are chipped, off track, screws missing, etc. We did have an accident, one kid broke a decorative glass pane. I reached out immediately, sent pics, knowing it’d be fine with the insurance. He threatened it might not cover it & soon after check out, the owner called blaming our party for the door and other small repairs attempting to nickel & dime/hassle me. I am a calm person but he tried to yell and over talk me until I de-escalated the situation by my response. I also assured him that I took video at check in/out then the accusations subsided. That left a really negative taste in my mouth, this will be the last our last time.

Place was perfect for us, with enough beds and space for all of us. Wish there was shampoo/conditioner/ body wash in the showers and a few more towels. Pretty bare bones but did the trick

Very nice place for a family that enjoys activities and games.

I loved the entire house the game room was a hit.

House was large had plenty of activities to keep us entertained and everything was as expected great place to stay.

We had the most fantastic time 10/10!

Wonderful place to stay in the city!! Very clean place. Plenty of spices, dishes, k-cups were stocked in the kitchen. All the games worked perfectly and were soo much fun! Lots of yummy snacks in the vending machines as well. The only parking available is street parking so just make sure to plan for that accordingly. Wonderful place and I would definitely recommend to anyone!

Definitely what you see is what you get, no exaggeration whatsoever! Spacious, clean and welcoming.We had a grand time and would certainly consider staying there again!

Our group stayed for two nights while attending Phillies games. The condo had a nice layout with plenty of space for everyone, and the game room was a great bonus for some evening fun. However, one of the downstairs showers didn’t have any hot water, and the place could benefit from a deep cleaning and a few updates. The beds were quite firm and not the most comfortable for sleeping. Overall, it worked for our trip, but there’s room for improvement. The vending machines in the unit were a genius idea and convenient.

Had 12 guys in town for a golf weekend and this place was perfect. Close to sports arenas and airport. Easy to get to 95. Would definitely recommend for bigger groups.

It was fun!

The property was functional for our needs. The owner communicated with us completely. The location was up and coming and the property was located next to a delightful Turkish Brew place that has the best pastries and light food. The property could sleep plenty of people and everyone in the area was super friendly. The game room kept us entertained with mostly pool and poker games. There a plenty of dishes, pots, and pans. There were staple seasonings and olive oil left for the guests. There were a few drawbacks to the place. In one bathroom, you can't put toilet paper in the toilet. The place needs some cleaning up but I know the cleaning crew had not shown up...no fault of the owner. There are a lot of rules (not a problem for our family, but may be for others) and the pictures on the site are nicer than the actual apartment. I think the pictures don't show the wear and tear that occurs over time. Overall, we were satisfied.

The main level with kitchen and two bedrooms was just a couple small steps at door thresholds above sidewalk grade, which made it easy for the grandparents to get around. Plenty of open space to socialize and many fun activities just like the photos. We had two cars. Free street parking as available. Usually was able to park directly at the entrance, but never more than 1/2 block away. Attached photo is view of parking from kitchen window.

We had a great time! Kids enjoyed the game room. Would definitely stay here again.

Great fun for three generations. Our teenage grandkids learned how to play pool. They were never bored in the four days we were in the apartment. Our daughter had fond memories of her youth when shevplayed the Atari game. Clean, Quiet, and Safe place to unwind and relax.

Perfect place to stay with the kids. Plenty of games and beds. I could walk to get coffee and breakfast. Would definitely stay again.

Our stay was perfect. We only had the chance to stay for a night because of an event. But I would definitely return House was just as described, enough room for everyone, plenty of space and things to do. Owner responded immediately and answered all questions. My daughter graduated from Villanova Law School, not that far away I would recommend to anyone. Thank you again for opening your house to my family we will return. 10 stars if that is allowed

Lots of beds and fun games to play.

Fun games, enough room for 15 of us (multiple beds per room), nice kitchen.

We completely enjoyed our stay. My husband said that the place was an oasis in the city. Our only confusion was with parking- the details said the parking was onsite, but it was actually street parking. Other than that we loved the property and had a wonderful stay.

Our family of seven loved this stay. Plenty of room for all of us and the kids had a blast. Less than ten minutes to the historical areas of Philly. Strongly recommend. The neighborhood might make some who are not used to cities uncomfortable, but we had no issues.

It was bigger than I expected and lived up to the hype!

It's a wonderful place.We really enjoyed our time There . We Didn't want to leave .

We love it here. Great location. Parking was easy. So much fun with all the games

This property is excellent for a fun-loving group with plenty of entertainment options and 4 rooms with a total of 10 beds (1 king, 5 doubles and 4 twins) to accommodate a large gathering of friends and family. The rental price was very reasonable, but I found the fees, taxes and property damage insurance to be a bit high (adding another 160% above the rental fee). The request for a substantial hold on my credit card to cover potential damages was especially concerning, so I added the property damage protection coverage just to be sure we weren't responsible for any damage that we didn't cause. However, that was all very clear before I booked the unit so it did not come as a surprise. Just be sure to consider the full price before booking. The 7 of us very much enjoyed our stay and will likely book again when we return to Philly.

Great

We came to Philadelphia to run the Marathon and we’re looking for a place that would allow us to prepare for and relax after the run. Mr Whips absolutely fit the bill for what we needed. Completely enjoyed our stay and do it again

We enjoyed our weekend, however, the apartment was not what we were expecting. The listing said that there were spices and all the cookware we would need, but there was only salt and pepper, and only one small baking sheet and some pots, one pan, and a griddle pan. There were no cleaning supplies available, so we couldn't clean our messes, or run the dishwasher. Several of the arcade games either didn't work, or they didn't work completely (some of the buttons stuck due to something being spilled on them). Everything in the gaming space was very cramped together, with not enough room for some of the activities to be done at the same time. There is only eating space for 7 people, even though there are beds for 15+. I was told that there was parking available, but we had to park along the street around the corner. Communication with the host was good. There were rules and expectations posted all over the house, however, these did not match some of the rules that had been previously communicated with me (10 pm - 6am quiet time, but the house posting was 10-8, and the upstairs neighbors were quite loud on the floor well past 10 pm). I will not be staying at another Mr. Whips again.

Fun house with lots to do in a cool area. Great communication and easy in and out!

No one wanted to leave!
