Just what I was looking for our 3 day visit to my hometown! I love the old houses in what I call the Chapin neighborhood, and this one fit the bill. I would stay here again. Let’s go Buffalo!

The house was exactly as listed. The front patio is great. Very quiet neighborhood at night, but is a short walk to some lively pubs and restaurants. Would recommend this place.

My wife and I stayed here for the month of September, 2023. The flat was just what we needed for a long stay - decent, well equipped kitchen, lots of room, etc. The neighborhood was great. (I lived nearby for a few years as a toddler and again for a decade after graduating from college, so maybe I'm prejudiced.) Good shops and restaurants nearby, and some superb cultural institutions, including the newly expanded Albright Know.

The home was clean and tidy. The location is perfect. Plenty of space, and a great front porch. There is lots of character inside the house and beautiful dark wood accents - however, this does tend to make it a little darker inside. Overall, a good stay!

Comfortable apartment with east checkin. All beds were great. Lots of fans and A/C units. Parking on the street wasn’t a problem. Definitely will return

Beautiful first level home. Very spacious and well appointed. Dan was truly a super host. We loved the location by Elmwood Ave shops and convenience to everything.

Great old house, but comes with the ailments....creaky wood floors, creepy basement (that's where the washer/dryer is), low water pressure - oh, and if you are over 5 ft tall, you will have to bend down under the shower head. No dishwasher (we used our teenagers). Needs new towels furnished. Lovely front porch to sit and people watch. We did a lot of walking around the neighborhood to see the wonderful houses and gardens. The kind of house not for uppity people. Unless you have a compact car, you will NOT fit down the driveway to the back (we had an Altima and had to pull the side mirrors in before we drove it. There is parking on the street. We loved it!

Pretty much as described. Located in a cool neighborhood with lots of stuff nearby via car or walking. Host hadn't given me any info less than 24 hours prior to our trip (even after I had messaged him), which was very out of the ordinary for any Vrbo I've used in the past. At the end of the day, all worked out fine and we very much enjoyed our stay in this classic Buffalo neighborhood and house.

This is a cute old house in a really fun neighborhood. We didn’t even need to communicate with the owner as all the info was already given, smooth in & out and the place was just as was stated. One thing to note: there really needs to be hand soap available at the two sinks.

Very affordable,clean and great guest. This is a great place for a family stay. It's a bit outdated but we actually did not mind that at all, as the place was very well kept . Great cozy place in a very friendly neighborhood. Very safe walking to bars and restaurants. Lots of room in the house and porch. A few complaints which were easily solved by the homeowner. Could use new locks as the door handle fell off and only had 1 key for the front door. Otherwise I would definitely return to this property for a stay!!!!)

We settled into this charming, vintage home to celebrate Christmas with Buffalo family. The Buffalo blizzard surprised us, but we were safe, warm and well-prepared by our host for such events in this well-built house. When our return flight was cancelled, delaying our departure by six days, our host worked with us and generously extended our unexpected stay. We did have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year after all! We highly recommend the property and our host!

The house was as advertised. Only issues were the bathroom had hand soap and various bottles of shampoo, but no bath soap. Good thing one of our party brought some. There was plenty of blankets, but some extra pillows would have been handy.l

There’s a ton of room, the house was very clean and furnished appropriately. Driveway is quite narrow - my RAV 4 just barely fit with the side view mirrors closed. But there’s plenty of street parking. A much better alternative to staying in a hotel. I’d stay again in a heartbeat!

If you like a century home with original hard wood floors and a great neighbourhood (Elmwood Village) to match, this property will provide that. There are some modern day conveniences that don't come along with that (e.g. electrical outlets) but that just adds to the charm.

Great property for all of our family to stay together. It is an older home, but was comfortable and clean with everything we needed. We would definitely stay there again. Also, in walking distance to restaurants.

I'm sure this property was beautiful in it's day, but now it is dark and dingy and looks as though it's been furnished from garage sales. The kitchen is not very well stocked. The driveway is horrendous! Although it was plenty room for the three of us, we didn't think it was very clean, especially the bathroom.

In Buffalo for a quick 3 days for a family location. Perfectly located in Elmwood Village near Delaware Park - easy access to expressways. Less than 15 minutes to Buffalo airport. Apartment slept 8 adults quite comfortably - although managing with 1 bathroom was challenging at crunch points. Unit - including kitchen - had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again on a future visit.

A charming home at a great value with all the amenities (minus a vegetable peeler :-)). Walking distance to the amazing Saturday Farmer’s market, Reddy Bike rentals right around the corner that’s a short but gorgeous ride to Delaware park. We stayed the weekend to get acquainted with our daughter’s new college town and we fell in love with Buffalo and Elmwood Village. Our host was very communicative and we would stay here again. Thanks Dan.

Landlord had to be prompted (by phone call) multiple times on the day of arrival for check in details. The rental has no air conditioning, which is sweltering in the summer. Neighborhood is nice.
4.0
Extremely clean, with fully outfitted kitchen and bathroom.
The home is old, and the age of the house is evident but is perfect for a larger group, as it has 4 bedrooms. There are fans through out the house as there is no air conditioning. Parking off the street was no problem as we had a full size car, and not a big SUV or truck.

This house was awesome for our family. There is so much character and old world charm in the house. I loved looking at all of the antiques and nuances of the house. The location is great. It is a short walk to the shops and restaurants. We bought gifts for several people in town. The shops are all different and have unique items you don’t find everywhere. We ate at the Thai place and the Mexican place, both were excellent. I felt safe enough for my kids (13 & 16) to walk around without me. Owner was very responsive and helpful. Overall, very enjoyable stay!

Beautiful place.
The property is beautiful, the neighborhood is great. Very dog friendly and walking distance to many things. Had an excellent 4 day stay and I would definitely come back to this spot again any time I'm traveling the area.

Comfortable and Historic
Great location. The house was old but historical just as it was advertised. Very neat and comfortable set up. The oven didn’t work but due to holiday, there was not enough time to get it repaired. All Instructions were clear and easy to understand.

Amazing house!
We enjoyed our trip so much and this house was a big part of it! The furnishings were so inviting and yet stunningly elegant. The kitchen was well stocked and ready for use. The beds were comfortable and the neighborhood peaceful. I was fortunate to have a small car that fit in the driveway but I recommend street parking for those with larger cars. Within walking distance were many city amenities of all kinds. Highly recommend.

We had booked the accommodation to visit Niagara Falls. Buffalo is worth seeing, we would have liked to have stayed longer. The house and furnishings are a bit older, but everything is neat and spacious and most importantly clean. Well, the beds were very soft and way too short; I am 189 cm tall. You can end the evening on the porch. Opportunities for shopping are available nearby.
