Great location, affordable, clean, and communication with the host was very good! Would stay here again without hesitation. Shops, restaurants, Hospital all within walking distance.
It was the perfect place to stay for my appointment at UPenn. Many great food options within walking distance. It was quite quiet being on a one way street. We didn’t hear the next door or upstairs neighbors either. Great bathroom with good water pressure through rainfall shower head. Everything was clean and as listed. We would love to stay here again!
