This is a beautiful second floor apartment. It is wonderfully decorated. Everything has been thought of to make you feel at home. It is worth noting that the entrance has a rather steep staircase so just be aware if you have bigger suitcases. Overall the host was very responsive and I enjoyed my stay!

Great spot that is central to historical sights and the waterfront. The instructions and check-in were so helpful, Airbnb was very clean and thoughtfully stocked with water bottles and snacks. I loved the natural light, modern aesthetic, and design. I would consider staying here again, the only thing that was inconvenient for me was having a car as the street parking that is advertised in front is only 1-2 hours long. I had to walk about a mile to park my car in a neighborhood with regular free street night parking where I could leave my car overnight. Many of the options around this Airbnb are paid hourly and only up to a certain amount of time (the first one I used I could only pay for up to 3 hours and was not allowed to do another session in that zone). So having a car at this spot was a definite pain, but otherwise, if you are not traveling with a car, splendid!

We had a great stay. The place is beautiful and was spotless. Everything was just as it was described and the bed was very comfortable. This was probably the best stocked AirBnB I've ever stayed at! Gabe was very helpful and responsive, we felt well taken care of. Thanks Gabe and Jon! We will definitely check out your other places next time we are in town!

This apartment is charming, with modern and stylish furniture. It is bright and sunny with large windows in the bedroom and skylights. The low hum from the highway behind the apartment is easily overcome by using a music speaker, and the truth you forget about it pretty quickly. The apartment is steps from the river and the old town, where there are many restaurants. The host was very responsive - including when I could get in (user error - just needed to push the door a little harder after entering the code!).

Beautiful apartment and prime location. Quick walk to the waterfront and not too far of a drive from Philly hotspots. 10/10!

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Gabriel’s place! I stayed for one month and felt right at home, even though I was far away from my real home. John and Gabriel are wonderful hosts—super nice people who attended to anything I needed straight away. The apartment is great. I’d recommend you book to check it out for yourself. Thank me later, 😉
