Starting for the communication, they send a lot of questionary at the same day of your check-in. I was in traffic trying to find all the requests very confusing and repetitive. My check-in was released late because of a bunch of request. The apt is very noise, mainly Saturday night. It is next to an avenue and all lights and outdoors lights from streets comes inside the apt all night long. I do not recommend to who has sleep issues. Not very clean. A ear plug are supplied by the host as regular procedure. No space for closes or luggage in the bedroom near the bathroom. No soap available in my bathroom but the little one to wash hands.

Philly tattoo convention weekend

The apartment was perfect for 3 adults, 2 in the bedroom; 1 on the sofa bed. Plenty of room to move around. Well-appointed with appliances; dishes, etc that you would need for eating in. Bed was extremely comfortable and that is usually my biggest problem. Everything was clean. The paint could use some touch up in places but you can tell it’s just from wear and tear and not dirty. Nicely furnished with sharp accents and furniture!! Extremely convenient to parking and attractions in center city.

Good for price

No elevator for second or third stories, keep in mind bedrooms & bathrooms could be up another flight of stairs. Some bedding & towels had stains. Stocked kitchen with utensils & kitchen ware. Good location for walking but very noisy.

There was no water pressure, we were 5 people who couldn't shower for 5 days. Contacted the property owners, they sent someone to look but nothing could be done during our stay. A portion was refunded. I ultimately will not book there again in the future.

The location of this apartment is ideal. However, the apartment and the building are in need of some maintenance. The communication was good, but their words of reassurance did not result in fixes. The apartment is on a very busy corner, so it is traffic loud and it does not get very dark for sleeping. The stairway is dirty and the doors do not feel very secure. Bathroom sink and shower were very slow to drain, and although they said someone would fix them, no one ever showed up. Overall, it is a decent stay, but some TLC is needed on the apartment.

likes: Very convenient to places i wanted to go. Walkable. Some great dining choices in the immediate area. Communication was excellent with staff. Just off the highway which is good for when you're ready to leave. Very easy to get into apartment. DIdn't need to check-in. Washer/dryer - didn't use but glad it was there. dislikes: walls could use a paint job heard some noise from the highway but more so heard just about every move the people upstairs made. I was in basement apartment. bed could use a fitted bottom sheet. not sure why they use an unfitted sheet. gets tangled/moves a lot during the night. bed makes a lot of creaking noises all this being said, i would definitely stay there again

Very comfortable and really close to the convention center, clean, interesting design. It is next to the interstate so it is very loud when trying to sleep. It worked great for me and I may stay here again, just be warned.

Would never stay here again.

Very loud even with ear plugs and a sound machine to drown out the highway noise. My car was damaged in the parking lot across the street. Unit needed repair. Was locked out of the building before my checkout time and had to spend 30 minutes waiting for customer service to assist.

We stayed in unit E. The location was perfect for the convention center event. Parking was more than stated in the instructions, but it was still a good price. We could see the car from our window. You will need to use the earplugs supplied for night traffic noise and possibly bring an eye mask. The rooms are very bright with big windows esp. if you are sleeping on the sofa bed. Nice seating areas if you need to work on your laptop for work. The full-size kitchen is nice for heating up the leftovers. The sofa bed was not very comfortable, though. The bathroom is located in the small loft bedroom above. It was small but clean and manageable.
