About this property

Very Cool, Retro Getaway in Heart of Downtown

After a renovation, this fun and comfortable third floor apartment is finally ready for you.
One block from Main Street. Featured as one of Bellefonte's most historic buildings on the Historic Walking Tour…(so it’s not perfect looking and new)
There is ONSITE PARKING for 1 car behind the building plus free parking on the street on evenings and Sundays
Premium mattresses, Comforters, sheets, and pillows.Towels and toiletries provided.
Bedroom 1 has a Queen Bed and 2 TwinXLs
Bedroom 2 has 2 TwinXLs

This is a large two bedroom, third floor apartment.
It has been renovated and is clean and comfortable with tons of classic board games, a Ms Pac-Man arcade game and other cool stuff.
PLEASE NOTE: This apartment is not new, it's 150 years old so everything is not shiny and new..like the trim and some of the walls, for example.
I'm also in the process of renovating the lobby and stairways so they are still original:) There is also no elevator in the building.
Located in downtown Bellefonte. One block from Main Street, two blocks from Talleyrand Park. There are a lot of great restaurants and neat little shops nearby.
Remember it’s a third floor apartment you access via the stairs. It's an easy drive to downtown State College (about 18 minutes) and Beaver Stadium (just 15 minutes away in non-game day traffic!)

Perfect home base for visits to Penn State- adorable town with plenty of breakfast/coffee options. The apartment is filled with fun 70s and 80s nostalgia, and a Ms Pac-Man and pachinko game! Beds are SO comfy, LR is roomy and cozy for hanging out and watching a movie or playing games or chatting. Everything you need and more!!

What a fun stay! A blast from the past for those of us who love the vintage games and relics of yesteryear (books, board games, Nintendo and even a Ms Pacman arcade) but also a spacious and comfortable stay. Everything was well-appointed, and the retro touches were all so fun.The place is within close walking distance of restaurants and lovely Talleyrand Park. Communication with the host/property manager was lightening fast. We can't wait to return!

Location is perfect close to everything bellefonte has to offer. Overall very nice place to stay just needs little bit of updating. Very large considering it's age just needs a little bit of updating to be perfect.
