Philadelphia History

Fabulous location, walked to museums and historic sites in Philadelphia. We felt very comfortable in the home and really enjoyed our stay! Note that the Hop On-Hop Off tour bus comes right down the street; you can get off close by.

Philly Trip

I’m very thankful I was able to stay at this location. Isolde is a wonderful hostess and it was great to meet her and chat with her family as well! The off street parking was a great accommodation to have and Lyfts were plentiful in the area and more affordable than I expected. The outside porch with seating was an added bonus. The location is unmatched and so close to everything. The bedroom is cozy and has a very homey vibe. We are already planning our next stay! Thank you for a great experience.

Wonderful Location

The property is located within a 10 minute walking distance of independence park historical locations with the opportunity to be within the local atmosphere. It is also a 25 minute walk from the convention center. Food options are nearby along with the host being gracious to us for use of kitchen. Parking is located within a gated lot with solid security surrounding it. It was a wonderful location and would stay here again if given the opportunity. Highly recommend.

Cozy spot, amazing location, lovely host

Perfect alternative to a hotel room for a single or couple visiting Philadelphia. Location in Society Hill neighborhood is extraordinary - close to all the historic spots. Isolde is a lovely host, gives you space or open to a conversation - your choice. My husband and I won't hesitate to book this cozy space again.

Charming

My husband and I totally enjoyed our stay at Isolde’s home. Her home is so charming and beautiful! We had the 3rd floor to ourselves. The balcony was a plus to have. We were able to leave the car parked and walk to the Historic downtown. We wish we had more time. We will definitely stay here again. Isolde is such a sweet and welcoming lady.
