    We loved staying at this property! The home was adorable - clean and comfortable, well decorated, cozy, and even well-stocked with snacks. The area was really nice too, with coffee and sushi around the corner, and a bus stop within a block to access the city without having to drive. We found parking easily around the corner, and left our car there for our entire stay. We would definitely stay here again!

    This is a beautiful home, stocked with essentials, on a stunning street in a perfect neighborhood. The back, outdoor space is lovely for a morning cup of tea. The house is full of light and air, with lots of space to spread out. Even though there is only street parking, it wasn't an issue at all and we found a spot right away. It is located next to all the museums in the area. We have a senior dog, and the baby gates throughout the home were a welcomed addition ensuring we didn't have a senior explorer on any of the steps. Megan is a wonderful host who responded to all my communications promptly and with kindness, which doesn't go unnoticed. I can't say enough good things about this house!

    Meg was super responsive during our stay! The home was cozy and had everything you could need. My 3 year old loved the downstairs play area and all the kids books. Definitely very thoughtful of people traveling with kids, highly recommend for families! Felt nice to be back in our old neighborhood with so many great restaurants and playgrounds nearby. Go to Bad Brother for dinner!

    What a wonderful home! Perfect for families with young kids, it had toys, puzzles, books, stair gates, and a crib. It was near the zoo and kids museum as well as coffee shops and restaurants. Our two young children didn't want to leave, and I hope we will be back to visit again.

    This is a cute rowhouse in a clean, quiet neighborhood sprinkled with cafes, pubs, restaurants and even a prison -- a defunct prison that is a museum, that is. The house is in walking distance to the art museum and Fairmount Park, close to public transit, and a short drive to downtown/airport/wherever. Parking was somewhat tricky as we arrived late one evening, but was generally not a problem. We would probably have been fine without a car, given the variety of transit options. Meghan responded quickly to any questions we had.

    Not being familiar with Philadelphia, the parking (or lack thereof) was surprising. Once I parked the car, I wasn't moving it again. There were neighborhood shops and stores nearby, so we were able to buy a few groceries. Getting around with Uber and buses was easy and convenient.

    This is a neat and clean renovated townhouse close to the art museums, with all the necessities for a pleasant stay. Street parking can be a little tight, but it is available and there are activity options within walking distance for those so inclined. The neighbor is quiet and peaceful. For members of the younger set, the house is well fitted out for families, with toys and games for children and gates on the staircases. We found the owners responsive to any questions and would definitely recommend this home to anyone who is ambulatory.

    The location was great, the apartment is in a nice, quiet neighborhood, a short walk to the Philadelphia Art Museum. It was clean and well-furnished, and the owner was extremely accessible when we had questions. It's particularly well set up for small children (though we didn't have any in our party), with baby gates, a crib, and books and toys for kids. The ground floor was well air-conditioned, but the second floor (where most of the beds are) was not, but it cooled off OK at night with fans and open windows. My eighty-one year-old mother did wish for a grab bar in the shower. Overall, we had a great stay.

    Stayed for four nights. The location is great--near museums, the river path, with buses that go everywhere. Comfortable and well-equipped.
