We had a wonderful time in Salem. This property is in a great location to be able to walk to all things Salem! We also had my 5-year-old niece who appreciated the playground right outside the door. We loved our stay here! An added bonus was being able to use the Netflix account on the TV!
This was a lovely place in the perfect location to explore Salem on foot. Very clean and comfortable with a fun vibe.

Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the location and appreciated our communication. We'd be happy to host you again anytime!
Clean apartment. My only complaint was that I wish there was a brita or a filtered water spigot. Other than that, it was just as expected-clean, comfy..and best part..prime walking to all things Salem!
Everything went perfectly from check in to check out. Everything was clean and just as described. We stayed for 3 nights and never had to move our car. Every thing you could want to do was within walking distance. Amazing place and location! If you’re booking a trip to Salem, this is the place to stay!!
Loved the location and ability to walk to all of our planned destinations. The house was quiet with a lovely courtyard and very nice neighbors.
Inside the house was well decorated and very clean. We felt very secure and safe.
Loved it so much that we have already booked a return visit for next year!
Well worth the value.
We arrived to a very hot apartment. The information stated the place was air conditioned but there was only one AC unit in the bedroom. The rest of the unit was hot. Very uncomfortable. The location was right where we wanted to be. We walked everywhere and our car stayed parked in the driveway. Very convenient. My only suggestion would be another AC unit placed in the living room window.
Very convenient location with a parking spot! The room was in perfect condition. We brought our 1 year old and was offered a pack and play and portable high chair. We did bring our own but it was lovely to be offered. We loved the style and colors of the condo. Everything was cozy and welcoming. Nice little outside area as well. Couldn't have asked for a better stay.

Thank you for the lovely review. Glad the location, parking spot, and room condition met your needs. Happy we could offer the pack and play and portable high chair for your little one, and that you enjoyed the condo’s style, cozy feel, and outside area. You’re welcome back anytime!
Overall, a great stay and would recommend! The only negative thing I could say was maybe the shower needed some fresh caulk, but otherwise it was good. The location, parking, yard, and size was perfect!
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely apartment! Its excellent location, dedicated off street parking spot, and first floor location in the building ticked all the boxes for us. One suggestion for improvement would be to add a small dresser or something with drawers in the bedroom closet, and more hangers in the closet as well. Since we stayed for 4 nights, the added storage have been handy for unpacking our suitcases. Overall, I highly recommend the apartment and would stay there again when we visit Salem.
