    About the host

    Hosted by Daniel Shaw-Amoah

    Host profile image
    We're a local family who loves hosting and sharing the best of Philly with guests from all over the world. When we’re not running our small business, you’ll find us watching soccer, exploring neighborhoods, or enjoying the city’s amazing food scene. Hosting gives us a chance to meet new people and offer a cozy, welcoming space to relax and recharge.

    Why they chose this property

    We chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect blend of city access and suburban peace. Lansdowne is full of charm, history, and friendly neighbors—and we love how easy it is to get to the airport, downtown Philly, or a local African market on Woodland Ave. Whether you're catching a game, exploring museums, or just grabbing amazing takeout, everything feels close and convenient here.

    What makes this property unique

    Our space offers the best of both worlds: the quiet charm of Lansdowne with easy access to the heart of Philadelphia. What makes our property truly unique is the blend of comfort, culture, and convenience. Tucked away in a peaceful residential neighborhood, this private 1-bedroom basement apartment provides a quiet, cozy retreat while still being just 25 minutes from Center City Philly and 15 minutes from the airport.

    Guests enjoy their own private entrance, a full bathroom, and a thoughtfully appointed living space with everything needed for a short stay or a longer visit—WiFi, air conditioning, heating, a hair dryer, and even a few personal touches to make you feel at home. We’ve created a space that’s clean, comfortable, and warm, perfect for travelers who want a real local experience without the noise or price tag of a downtown hotel.

    Another thing that makes our listing stand out is our connection to the community. As a family who owns a local business, we love sharing recommendations—from the best jollof rice on Woodland Avenue to hidden gems around town. Guests visiting for sporting events, family gatherings, cultural trips, or business will find that our home is not just a place to sleep—it’s a welcoming, thoughtful space that helps you settle in and feel cared for.

    We also love the diversity and energy of this neighborhood. Whether you're looking to explore “Little Africa,” hop on public transit to see the Liberty Bell, or just relax and unwind after a long day, our place offers a perfect starting point. We’re close by if you need us, and happy to help make your visit memorable.
