The apartment was so clean and comfortable. The beds and heated toilet seat were fantastic. It is so close to the park and variety of restaurants. I walked everywhere. The park has a great walking trail. There were great shops nearby ( a fantastic bookstore). The free parking is nearby. The hosts were wonderful. I am seventy-two and the stairs (about 25) leading up to the apartment were no problem because they have rails on both sides (and I packed 2 small suitcases). I would definitely stay there again. One of my favorite VRBO stays.

The property is a nice small two bedroom apartment. A lot of very nice restaurants are within a block or so. There is a nice riverside park two blocks away.

Loved the Heart of Downtown

My stay at the property was great. Convenient walking distance to state Capitol and restaurants. check in was easy and the place is very clean. Parking isn't the best which is why gave 4 of 5 stars on location/neighborhood. However, the options are not terrible.

Great location and a super host

The host was super helpful the few times we needed her. The apartment's location in the center of the city was great for walking, shopping and dining. And absolutely nothing was amiss or missing in the apartment. Best of all Angela was super helpful and accommodating. Maybe our best VRBO experience ever.

Super great place to stay in downtown Salem. There is a small convenience store on the corner and a Safeway that is about 5 minutes by car. Lots of local places to eat within a short walk. I particularly liked Archive, Taproot, & Fork Forty.The place is clean with a pleasant layout. There were enough pots/pans to make most things. The beds were comfy if a little creaky. The water pressure was decent and the heated & lighted toilet seat was nice at night and in the early morning. The living area is quaint and good for reading a book by the window or watching media thru the large flat screen. The place had an easy to use thermostat and the gas faux fireplace put out heat if you are right in front of it. Noise from the street was better than expected given how large the windows are. Lastly, I came in a little late and got confused by the keypad (though it was clearly explained, I was tired-reading and missed the pic of instructions). The host was immediate in helping and continued to be fabulous to work with. I recommend.

Very noisy but clean

The property was clean and comfortable and it is on a good location, within walking distance of coffee shops and restaurants. However, it is very noisy at night in the bedroom facing the street. It was very hard to get any sleep as the noise did not stop until 2 am. We did try the ear plugs provided by the host but that was not enough to drown out the noise.

Cozy family apartment!

The apartment is a very nice place to stay for a family! The city is very alive during the day with many places to visit. At night, the vibe changes and becomes louder. We were back in by 730 but could hear the noise. If we knew that the parking structure was not safe at night we would not have parked there because when we woke up Saturday morning, our window of our van was busted out. Truly bummer of our trip, we no longer felt safe and left early. Salem is a beautiful city to stay for the day but not sure if we will stay through the night again.

Perfect downtown apartment

This was a delightful home away from home for my wife and I and our young child. The space was very well appointed and thought through, and the location is awesome. Downtown Salem is a gem.
