About this property
Studio in the heart of Fishtown
Fishtown has been called Philadelphia's trendiest neighborhood. At my little studio, you can be in the heart of it and yet still be just one block from the elevated train which takes you to Center City in 10 minutes. Enjoy coffee at La Colombe, German beer at the Frankford Hall beer garden, spirits at Lloyd's, and live music at Johnny Brenda's. This is a comfortable 250 square foot completely private space with its own modern bathroom and soaring 25 foot ceilings. The space Our space is simple but comfortable. We have a queen sized bed, a table and chairs, a dresser, a small fridge, a microwave, and a full bath with shower. There is no TV. Guest access There is free 3 hour parking on our block of Front Street. For longer term free parking, try the side streets nearby - Thompson and Master (It’s hit or miss whether you find a space). There are paid parking lots at 1320 N Front and 1400 N Howard. If you’re desperate, try parking on American Street north of Cecil B Moore — there are always openings. Other things to note We are located next to an elevated train line. The train is loud. We’ve done our best to sound proof the space and we’ve provided earplugs. In addition, the train stops most nights between 12 and 5:15. Nevertheless, you should come prepared for some noise.

Overall great location, place was clean, it’s in the heart of the Fishtown activity, all walkable places. Noise, the elevated train was an issue. Ear plugs did help. Thank you
Location to shopping, restaurants, and the Filmore was great. Parking lot was steps away and easy to navigate. As all reviews say and listing explains, train is noisy but did not run for 5 hrs overnight. Enough to get enough rest before heading out. Place is perfect for a quick stay!
The studio is really comfortable and situated in a dynamic and friendly neighborhood. I had absolutely no problem sleeping without earplugs and felt at home. If you’re not sensitive to the sound of the elevated train (it’s pretty loud, as described), I strongly recommend the studio!
Location had nearby subway access, and plenty of coffee shops and restaurants within a short walk.
Check-in process was a breeze, and the room was cozy without being cramped.
Weekend nightlife and elevated train did get noisy, but didn't run super late. Earplugs helped.

Great little place which is set up well. As mentioned in the description, the train is loud but easily got used to it and it was easy to sleep or relax during the day even when trains were going by.
This listing is spot on regarding the details. The owner is extremely responsive and provides as much insight as possible when questions arise. I would revisit this rental and look forward to future visits. Thanks for a great stay.
Nice size room to sleep and eat. Hope you are used to train noises, cause there's a track just literally outside the door and it will not stop until late at night. Otherwise, nice place and the attendant working the parking lot next door is awesome!
Continent location, clean and comfy. Would be staying here again! Parking was easy and there are so many gems in this neighborhood. Train was a little loud but wasn’t the worst.

This place was exactly what I needed for a quick overnight stay after traveling in to Philly. Super easy to get to without needing a car, it’s very close to an L station. Lively neighborhood, I had a great time. Yes the train is loud when it rolls by, but I could manage since it did stop late at night. Great value here.
Location was convenient to the metro to get around. Only real downside is the proximity to the tracks and you can hear the trains all through the day starting bright and early.
Location is great for walking Fishtown! Place was clean and perfect for Fishtown destinations. Thank you to Peter for the timely and clear communications regarding my stay.
Great little room right next to a bunch of great bars and restaurants and seconds away from public transit. Cool area to walk around. Only downside is the loud noise of the train as mentioned in the listing, but for that price it was worth it!
