About this property

Beautiful Rittenhouse Square House 4 bedroom and 2 baths

Same day booking check in is 4pm or two (2) hours after booking, whichever is later.

First floor -- living room with high ceilings eat-in kitchen and French doors to a small private patio.

Second floor - Two bedrooms are separated by a super small study with two separate doors to each of the bedrooms. One bedroom has access to this study.

Third Floor -- Two bedrooms one on each end of the hall. The front bedroom has two doors, one to the hall, one to the bathroom. The bathroom on this floor is in the middle of the floor with two doors, one to the front bathroom and one to the hall accessible for the back bedroom.

The house has central air and hardwood floors throughout.

We fell in love with this bright and airy corner town home's high ceilings, original details, and amazing desirable location.

We've aimed to furnish the entire house for a comfortable stay while maintaining this historical house's charm and details.

The beds are made with freshly laundered sheets, towels, and of course, cleaned for your stay.

We purchased this home after enjoying hosting a smaller house nearby that is my parents' primary home when they are in the United States. We hope you will enjoy your stay in this new house during your visit to Philadelphia. Please note we do not allow for local guests. Please let me know the reason for your visit.

Great location - near shops and restaurants. Sophie was very easy to communicate with. Old house with creaky floors and simple bathrooms but that is part of the charm. Well equipped kitchen.

Short stay for a Phillies game

Overall impressions were clean and comfortable. Plenty of beds. Location for a phillies game was a quick uber ride. We used a parking garage right down the street for the night which was convenient. Only trouble we had was I thought the locks for the two doors was dofficult. We managed. Would stay again!

Great neighborhood

This is a cozy and charming house in a great neighborhood and easily walkable to the convention center and nearby restaurants. The beds were overly firm for most of us, but we all slept fine. Bathrooms are tiny and have no vanity space, so make sure that you have portability for your toiletries.

Nice place to be in a nice part of Philadelphia

All four beds were comfortable. Plenty of blankets, towels, and pillows. Place was stocked with coffee and tea. Great place to stay to visit Philly. Small couch and TV, not really great to hang out but that was fine with us. Kitchen and bathrooms were adequate.

Very organized and the kitchen is like a home with everything you need basically. The only minor thing was the one of front doors was not that easy to open, It took us some time to open it.

Cozy condo in the city

We had a great stay! We were taking a long road trip and needed a place to stay for one night along the way. Condo was perfect. Very cozy decor, plenty of space for my family of 4 to spread out. Near great restaurants within a very short walk. Parking next door. Had all the amenities. Owners super responsive and made sure we were all set for the stay. Even double checked to make sure we parked in a legit lot. Only downside is beds were super firm but I think that is a personal preference. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Fun time in Philly !

Affordable stay in downtown Philly for our family of 5. The home is unique with character. I would recommend adding more furniture to the living room space as we were not able to relax in the evening as a family comfortably. Thank you for hosting us.

Lovely stay in downtown Philly!

Although brief, my family and I really enjoyed our stay at Sophie's place. Her house is not only pretty charming, with its old-fashioned vibe, but it's also quite central which made our walking around the city pretty easy. Sophie is also very responsive and kind. She provided several suggestions on where to go and eat and I really appreciated that. Highly recommended!

Ladies getaway

Our first work ladies getaway. We had a great time. First to the Flower show, then to the marketplace. Then we spent a fun evening laughing and playing games. The house was a very cool older home. Parking was easy in the garage right down the street. Would definitely recommend for a weekend away!

Disappointing interior

A disappointing stay due to the conditions. Not cleaned sufficiently from prior use. Dirty bathroom, kitchen area and floors. Interior door lock was often stuck and difficult to open. Insufficient lighting requiring us to bring lamps from the bedrooms. All beds were overly firm. Don’t understand why other reviews could be so positive. Easy to communicate with owner. Great location.

Older building (circa 1900), three stories, creaky floors and steps, unit is as it is appears.We loved the location -- easy walk to the historical parts of the city we wanted (20-30 minutes) and we felt safe in the neighborhood. Parking one block away for 25/day.I've stayed in many newer/nicer VRBOs, and gave it 5 stars brecause it was described as such. If that is what you are expecting, you will love this property. If you expect modern luxury, this isn't the property for you -- but we would stay again in a heartbeat.Thank you!

Charming home

This house is in a great location, close to many restaurants and historical locations. Parking garages are less than a block away and are easy to use. Ample space for a large family or a group of friends. Home is clean and check-in was a breeze. Beds are a bit stiff, but that's just a personal preference. Highly recommend!!
