I cannot recommend this property based on my experience.I was traveling with several women and my young daughter. Upon arriving at the property, we immediately became concerned by activity we observed in the area surrounding the home. Within minutes of arriving, we felt uncomfortable enough that we did not believe it was appropriate or safe for our group to remain there. After discussing the situation together, we made the difficult decision to leave and find accommodations elsewhere.This was not a decision we made lightly. We had already planned our trip around this reservation, and leaving created a significant hardship. Finding alternative accommodations for a larger group on short notice was extremely challenging, and we were not able to secure a hotel room until late that evening. The experience was particularly stressful while traveling with a young child.I understand that other travelers may have different experiences and comfort levels. However, based on what we personally observed upon arrival and how unsafe we felt at the time, we were not comfortable staying at this property. For families and travelers who place a high priority on feeling secure in their surroundings, I believe it is important to carefully research the area before booking.Unfortunately, this experience did not meet our expectations, and we chose to stay elsewhere.

I was traveling with several women and my young daughter. Upon arriving at the property in Germantown and parking our vehicle, we immediately became concerned when an unfamiliar man repeatedly walked circles around our car. The situation made us feel unsafe, and based on what we observed, we decided not to stay at the property. We left immediately and had to find alternative accommodations, which resulted in additional unexpected expenses. What made the experience even more disappointing was the host’s response. We requested a refund twice and received no meaningful assistance. During one attempt, a VRBO supervisor contacted the host on our behalf. The host reportedly ended the first call and, during a subsequent conversation, stated that it was “too early to deal with anything” and refused to discuss the matter further. Since then, we have received no resolution and no indication that a refund will be considered. Afterward, I discovered that the property appeared to be listed as available for the same dates on another rental platform, despite our reservation remaining active. The surrounding area and neighborhood is a high-crime area. After discussing the situation with my husband and reviewing everything we had observed upon arrival, we felt confident that leaving was the right decision for our family’s safety and we were not able to check into a hotel until nearly 11:00 p.m. while traveling with a young child. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend this host/property.

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.
The house was spacious and the garden oasis delightful.

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!
