We loved our stay here. It was a great location for us and walkable to many things. The host was a joy to talk to and so very kind. We would definitely stay here again!
Wonderful and very sweet host. Loved talking with Isolde and her sister and hearing their stories about moving to Philadelphia from Germany. Great location! Very safe and close to many places we wanted to visit! Everything was easy and house was very clean and decorated very eclectically. Loved our time there! Will be back for sure!
We had another excellent weekend stay in Isolde’s lovelyhome. The neighborhood is fabulous and perfectly located, and the fact that she provides secure parking is an added bonus. We plan to stay again when we return to Philadelphia. Thanks, Isolde, for making us feel so welcome.
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.
Everything about our experience was outstanding. The home is on a beautiful street near Washington Square, which is a great location to most everything. The host is warm and hospitable. Our space had a very comfortable bed and private bathroom. The included parking was a real plus and the deck was an extra bonus, allowing us to sit in the sun and relax during our busy weekend with family. Highly recommended!
We loved the house and everything around it! The street we stayed on was actually part of the sightseeing tour! A whole lot of history around the area. I would recommend to anyone that loves history to stay in this house and also the owner was very nice and knowledgeable about the area.
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.
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.
Isolde was absolutely wonderful and you're missing out if you don't stay here. There's a cute little balcony with some privacy and the location is so close to many historic sites. I would absolutely stay again.
This was the best place I’ve ever stayed. It was like staying with family. The owner went all out to make us feel at home. It was comfortable and spotlessly clean. Great location. Secure parking for our car.. A+++++
Best stay I have ever had. Isolde is an absolute sweetheart who provides an oasis of peace in Philadelphia. Her home is immaculate and guests have the third floor to themselves. I hope to stay again!
Perfect location for exploring Philadelphia’s Historic District, Society Hill and South Street. Gated parking was convenient and allowed us to take day trips to surrounding areas. Isolde was a gracious host. Loved chatting with her over coffee and breakfast!
The host and property were great! She's very accommodating, and the space was clean. written clarity on the check out procedures would be an improvement.
Thank you Isolde! Great weekend in Philly in your beautiful home. It’s very clean, relaxing, and comfortable.
