We loved our stay in this home-it was the perfect fit for our family, which includes 2 teenagers. The only reason I give it 4 stars is because the coffeemaker wasn't working. We love to get coffee at Philter, though, and were within walking distance. It was an easy drive into Philly and a very short drive to Longwood. We would absolutely stay here again!
