We were in town for a Swarthmore College reunion, and preferred not to stay in the dorms. We could not have been more pleased with this thoroughly delightful rental. The space is light-filled, private, and graciously appointed with anything one could want. The bed is extremely comfortable with a cozy duvet and decadent featherbed topper and comes with a variety of pillows to suit any style of sleeper. If extra sleeping arrangements are needed, a Murphy bed folds down into the room as well. There is a ton of closet space, and a cozy sitting nook with a large flat screen TV. You have the option of eating inside the unit or on the attached porch overlooking lovely landscaped grounds. The bathroom was spacious, immaculately clean, and included a walk-in shower, hair dryer, a washer/dryer stack and high end toiletries (including really comfortable toilet paper!) The host has included a surprisingly spacious refrigerator, Nespresso machine, microwave, and dishes/glassware including stemware. The grounds include a pool and outdoor shower, but it was a bit too chilly to try it out. The rental unit was skillfully renovated by the owner on the second floor of what looks like a carriage house, and is quiet and private. My husband and I would stay here again without reservation the next time we visit Swarthmore. The rental is within walking distance to the college campus, and the Septa commuter rail to Philadelphia. I actually felt sorry for my classmates in the dorms.

Perfect in every way! We had a fantastic stay in this truly elegant space. The host was so kind and helpful. The location is in a lovely, tree lined street that is just minutes away from the highway but you honestly would never know it. It is close by the lovely towns of Media and Swarthmore with plenty of cute shops and restaurants. The space was immaculately clean and tastefully decorated. It appears to be very recently renovated and everything felt so new and clean. It was very well stocked with high end supplies. The beds were very comfortable with cozy soft bedding. We slept great. But, the best part for me was the spectacular gardens on the property. Everything is so well kept and just gorgeous. The little table on the porch is perfect for morning coffee in the garden. We will definitely be back!
