TVs not connected Shower leaked Loose floorboards Loose carpet on stairsDad had to trim rose bushes for outside seating Outside area completely unkempt (hot tub and pergola ripped down, furniture dirty)Plants all dead inside Showers dirty "Clean" plates greasy Shelves crooked Food and toiletries left spoiled from precious tenants Mouse in the attic Either the cleaners didn’t clean from the last tennant, or something-- the amenities were not what was promised. The host told me there was "off street parking". It was the bare basics of what we needed for 11 people.

Great place to stay!

The house has beautiful live plants inside and out, with a stunning rose bushes outside. The private, back patio is great for outdoor meals. The record players, books, and candles were also cozy and welcoming. The host were so sweet and accommodating. Would stay here again!

Nice for large families

Very nicely decorated historic duplex comfortably sized for the ten of us! Had everything we needed, kitchen was on the small side and only two bathrooms, but we loved the spacious third floor room, the wooden staircase, relaxing living room and front porch. Even though it only has first come, first serve street parking, our kids were excited to experience a typical Philly neighborhood atmosphere, and especially enjoyed the large screen TVs and record players in each room with a huge collection of LPs to choose from!

House didn’t live up to previous high ratings. Dishwasher didn’t work. We had 9 people staying at the home and there were only 7 forks. Two of the beds didn’t have flat sheets. No hand towels or wash cloths. Ran out of hand soap and paper towels (which are used in bathroom instead of hand towels). No ice cube trays and ice maker didn’t work. No microwaveable plates. Dirty sock found in a bedroom on arrival. Owner responded to some requests, but dishwasher was ignored until it was too late. Otherwise, house is as described in words and pictures. Parking is on street; often a block away.

I booked this unit because of the good ratings and pictures. What is on the pictures is not what you will find unless the host confirms that they have fixed the issues listed here. The property is good but it seems like something happened and it was abandoned. When we got to the property it looked unkept on the outside, the bushes were overgrown & mailbox was stuffed with mail. Our access code malfunctioned and we couldn’t get a hold of the host for a good hour and a half. The cleaner came by to put the mail away and told us that her understanding was that we were arriving on the following day. Vrbo staff could not get a hold of the host either. The cleaning lady let us into the property. Lot’s of dust, dead plants. The hot tub cover was bursted, green moldy water in the hot tub. The cover to the Gazebo was ripped and halfway off. We had to wait for the cleaner to clean the place before we could unpack and settle down. We were so tired from traveling we all passed out only to find out later that there was no hot water. Our host was not able to find anyone to fix it. We were a family of 8 and all places were booked up being graduation weekend. The host offered us to go shower at a different unit which we would be sharing with other guests. I give the unit a 2 just because the beds were clean and comfortable. The property is good but needs attention. Host refunded part of the money.

This property is a well-appointed house on a residential street in Germantown. The location is excellent and check-in went smoothly, with the host being responsive and helpful on check-in day. Unfortunately, the one shower in the house does not drain properly. We were four occupying the house during our 2-night stay. One of us took a shower on day one, and no one was able to shower for the rest of the stay, because of pooling of water in the shower well. The host was alerted to the problem and recommended pouring Drano into the shower well. We decided not to do this, as if the Drano treatment was ineffective, the bathroom shower would be filled with a strong-smelling chemical agent for the duration of our stay. The host was unable to visit the property in person nor offered to dispatch a plumber. We paid over 1400 for a two-night stay and to be faced with this level inconvenience at such an expensive property was very disappointing.
