BrotherlyLove—Charming 2-bedroom house with WiFi, AC in lovely Philadelphia

Great communication with host and place was pretty clean.

Check in/check out was smooth. The house was spacious and surface clean, but those with household allergies might have issues. I don't usually have bad allergies, but they really flared up every time I was in the house, and they've gone since I left the house. The area is quiet, but a bit far from Drexel/UPenn campus. The surrounding area felt a bit sketchy at night.

This house was so quaint and perfect!!! Parking was a breeze! The house was so cute & cozy!!! The Host was super nice! No complaints!!! 100% recommend!!

Pretty good stay overall! Host was gracious and very versatile! Extended our stay on very short notice. The neighborhood looked a little rough but everyone was very nice and the house was as described, it was just a shock when we arrived. Don't let the surrounding area turn you off! It was great to be so close to everything! Would stay again for sure!

The home was clean throughout (kitchen refrigerator could have been cleaner...minor however). We did not have or need a car. But if you have a car, you can only park on the street and it's very tight. Home is located in a regentrified area of West Philly. It was a vibrant, eclectic area that we found interesting as we walked to and from the University of Penn. Overall the accommodations were fine and a great value.

Parking is first come first serve plan ti be back before 5pm to get a decent parking spot

Easy check in, convenient to our travel plan and excellent host

The things that were awesome about this Vrbo rental include awesome water pressure (and ample HOT WATER) in the shower, comfortable beds with extra blankets available if needed, plenty of towels, roomy bedrooms (space for luggage!), and an updated and adequately stocked kitchen. The house is … historical? I loved the wood floors and the interesting architecture of the older home. The host communicated well and often.Two aspects of our experience form the reason for giving only 3 stars when so many things about the house were positive. First is the furniture in the gathering spaces (living room/dining area). There was only one large piece of furniture for seating in the living room. I suppose it could fit 4 bodies if we were all lined up, but it would be weird, and not conducive to conversation. The stools at the dining table were okay for quick meals, but they were essentially the only group seating options, and they were a bit stiff and uncomfortable after any length of time. So, adding more furniture so guests can hang out together comfortably would easily turn this into a 5-star experience!The other issue we encountered was relatively minor, and very likely a one-off kind of thing. We could not get the electronic door lock to work. I believe the host said there was a recent software update or something like that. There was a contingency plan already in place - a lock box on the door containing a house key.I appreciated free parking (it’s residential).

Simple and efficient homestay. Close to train station if you are traveling to NYC or DC.

Property was clean and provided basic necessities for a home stay. Listing had some conflicting information about the check in process which had to be cleared up with the owner but no issues checking in. Area around the property was a little sketchy and on the edge of a “transitioning neighborhood” but I didn’t feel unsafe during the day.

check in was easy. clean. everything was great!

Easy check in/out experience. Very nice and clean interior.

Great accommodations and very friendly host.

Place was really nice and cozy. The neighborhood was not well lit but didn’t have any problems. I had my 2024 Jeep Wrangler parked down the street and had to walk to the house. We stayed for the Fourth of July so there was some fireworks going off. Neighbors were nice to give the greeting of the day and night.

The apartment was clean and modern and had plenty of space. Having 1.5 baths is very nice. The host (Jacob) was friendly and easy to contact.

2 night weekend stay was great! Close to UPENN where we needed to be. Host was prompt replying to questions and everything was accurate in regard to the listing and information from the host. Would recommend it to others.

Clean and comfortable. Host was easy to communicate with and the apartment matched the description. Had everything we needed for our stay. Good value.

Cute house that wasn't far from anything that we had planned. Jacob was a great host. Definitely would stay again if we are going to area.
