Great stay in Philly

We had a wonderful time visiting family who lived nearby. After some last minute planning complications, Tiffany and the Evolve team ensured we got our reservation locked in. So grateful. Communicating with them was easy. The location was quiet, nicely decorated, and very spacious. Would definitely book it again!

Comfortable stay

We enjoyed our stay! The inside of the house was clean, the beds were comfortable, and there were lots of thoughtful amenities. The only small complaint is the recycling bin out front was overflowing and because of that there was trash on the ground.

Awesome place near Philly

This house was just what we needed for the 4 of us to visit Philly! We couldn't have asked for more. Great space for taking it easy and close enough to be in town in 15 minutes. We had a great time! We would definitely recommend this place if you need to a place to stay and don't want to be in center city.

Clean and quiet

I chose this property due to its proximity to Chestnut Hill Hospital where my brother-in-law was undergoing a surgical procedure and we stayed for Ford days without issue. The neighborhood is quiet and the folks were friendly I felt safe walking around without issue

Beautiful & Convenient

The house was roomy, beautifully furnished, and had everything we needed. The kitchen was comfortable for cooking and the living room was inviting. Our location was perfect for items on our agenda that included downtown Philly exploring Love Park, historic Philadelphia iconic stops including the Liberty Bell and Peddlers Village a bit north of the city. The street parking in front of the residence with garage parking options was perfect.

Great place!

This is a perfect house to stay in with your family. It is a great location for folks visiting family in the Philly suburbs, eg, Springfield, Abington, or Cheltenham townships. The basement is a great place for teens to hang out (though the tv needs replacing). The neighbors and neighborhoods are great. The kitchen has the basics to make a few dinners. The dining room table and chairs aren’t the best, I imagine they’ll be replaced soon. Staying here is a much better option than a hotel!!!

Decent place to stay

This is a decent place to stay and one of the few if you're visiting friends or family in this part of Philadelphia. The beds are pretty bouncy and the pillows are very flat. There are plenty of towels and extra blankets for the beds. One of the towel rods in the bathroom is coming out of the wall. The shower is great. I appreciated the electric kettle for tea. The to-go cups for hot beverages are a nice touch though we didn't use them.

Great house and neighborhood

The owners have done a very nice job creating a welcoming home. The rooms are spacious and the furniture is in great condition (no saggy couches or beds). The neighborhood is quiet, and there is on-street parking in front of the house and a small driveway behind the house. We spent several days there as we attended an event at the Philly Convention Center. The drive to the Convention Center (which is in the middle of the city) takes 25-45 minutes, depending on traffic. 25 minutes during non-rush hour and 45 minutes during rush hour. We highly recommend this property if you need to be in the Philly area and don't want to stay in the middle of the city.

Comfortable stay in Philadelphia

We enjoyed our recent stay in this delightful home. Clean and beautifully decorated. It’s a cozy and comfortable duplex centrally located to downtown Philadelphia…yet, comfortably situated in a quiet, family neighborhood. We were visiting family in the area and this pet friendly home was the ticket! Cute kitchen to prepare meals if one is staying in. A few upgrades to kitchen utensils and cookware would be helpful. The appliances were top notch. A beautiful refrigerator with ice making capability. A Bosch dishwasher and stove/microwave. Perfect for preparing meals if you don’t want to go out. The kitchen cookware could use some updates. Basic items such as salt/pepper, napkins, dishwasher detergent and laundry detergent would be helpful…or communication for renters to shop for these items. The bedrooms were comfortable and cozy. Both rooms have flat screen tv’s and overhead fans. We stayed in March so we didn’t have any concerns about air conditioning. We were very comfortable the three nights we stayed. The two bedrooms, as well as an office are located on the second floor. Quiet street with minimal to no traffic noise. Yard space to walk your dogs as well as sidewalks. We would recommend this home for people who are visiting the area and don’t want to stay in the City. Plenty of restaurants and shopping in the area. The Property Manager was friendly, helpful and readily available to help with any needs a renter would have.
