The apartment was great for the one night of our stay. It's was clean and very quiet. The stairs I was not prepared for with carrying up stuff for my 2 and 4 year old but we figured it out. I will definitely be keeping this place on my return list.

It was very convenient to the downtown area, and exactly as described. We ate at the restaurant downstairs to the unit and they were incredibly kind as well. It was a great experience staying close to Hershey Park, yet still quiet at night.

This is a great location for anything "hershey". Apartment type vrbo. We had 2 kids and 3 adults and it was the right size for us. It is old and located above a historical restaurant. It was quiet and the restaurant was closed. So i can not say how the noise would be with the restaurant open. No frills. Clean.

Overall okay

Liked that it was close to the park. Wish parking was better. Odd layout. It’s was extremely hot as the window air conditioning units were not big enough to cool down the open living room/kitchen/bathroom area. Overall it was ok.

Perfect Location!

Although it is a 3rd floor apartment, you cannot beat the location!!!! Expected worse stairs wise but they were not full flight's. Walking distance to shops and restaurants..like minutes..not blocks. Kids had own room own beds which is huge traveling! You can see the roller coasters from outside of the apartment. Hershey park was a 9 minute drive. Dunks for those dunkie junkies like us was 4 minutes. Tangler outlets behind dunks pretty much. Absolutely perfect! Would stay again in a heartbeat!

Easy access to the park

We stayed here just one night as we were attending a concert across the way. The building is older, but the apartment was clean and just what we needed for the night. The owners were great and even left us some water and snacks for our arrival. Having the restaurant downstairs was also super convenient. I will say, it looks close to the stadium online, but you actually have to walk a little over a half an hour around Hershey Park to get there, so plan to uber or drive. Would stay here again.

Cute place to crash!

We enjoyed our quick overnight stay. The place was clean and comfy. The beds were comfortable and the AC was great in our rooms for a restful night after all day at the park. We didn’t get to utilize the kitchen but the basics were all there. The wine and candy bars were a sweet welcome. Our only gripe would be the third floor walk up steep steps was painful (only because 20k+ steps at the park). Otherwise, we’d love to come back again!

Great location

Not an accessible rental, but a good home base for a Hershey adventure if you can handle fairly narrow, steep stairs. Location is awesome, it was clean, and it has all the basics you need. Hosts gave detailed instructions for check-in and use. Thanks for the welcome treat! Would definitely would use again (but would pack a smaller suitcase for the stairs :) ).

Family trip to Hershey Park

Let’s just say- Hershey Park and the town of Hershey did not disappoint!!! This apartment was the perfect spot for families to say in while visiting the lovely town and awesome amusement park of Hershey! The kids, as well as adults, had great fun! The apartment was clean and comfy- a nice bottle of wine and Hershey chocolate was complimentary and an excellent touch! The restaurant Fenicci’s was also excellent (don’t forget to mention you are staying here to get a 10% discount on your meals)! We highly recommend and will stay here again! *This is an historic building and the staircase is narrow and steep, but not a major problem

Not what I expected

Overall, it was okay. It was a place to sleep at least. This property was referred to me by family in the area, based off of price and location. The listing does state “third floor” but it doesn’t mention the death staircase to get to the room. Very small steps and cramped and if you have heart/breathing problems like myself then i recommend you look elsewhere. I thought I was having a heart attack several times, very annoying. My young adult kids were too big for the bunk bed. It was uncomfortably hot for March, and musty, had to open windows. The bathroom and kitchen could use some upgrades but at least it was usable. The best thing about the property was being located directly across the street from Starbucks. It was tacky of the owner to leave welcome notes that included asking for gratuity. We basically tried to spend most of our time out of the property, we didn’t even turn the tv on.I don’t usually write long reviews but i just wanted to be honest about my stay. This location is more tailored to young single travelers maybe versus older people or families.

Great location, great appartment. It is on a third floor walk up though. Still there was very little on the floor, so it was basically childproof for our 2 year old, which was a big plus. The tub is great for bathing them. For parking and check in, my advice is to thoroughly read the directions on your listing before going. Parking isn't obvious, and they're not super responsive, but it is all laid out quite nicely on the listing. There's a free lot you can park in a two minute walk away. I was fortunate enough to find spots in front of the the place to load and unload. The loacation right in the center of town was perfect, and it was nice having our own room with a door to keep the kids out. The bathroom blinds don't go all the way down, which is a little wierd, and lugging our bags up and down 3 steep narrow sets of stairs wasn't fun, but overall I thought the positives outweighed the negatives. I would stay there again.
