Apartment in Philadelphia, PA

About this apartment rental
Stay somewhere you’ll actually remember. This one-of-a-kind Philly loft is built around a massive two-story exposed stone wall with glowing candle niches, vintage street lamps and a dramatic spiral staircase. Downstairs, a huge lounge and oversized bedroom with 2 queen beds create a surprisingly spacious retreat. Steps from the Delaware River Waterfront, Dave & Buster’s, Old City dining and nightlife—yet remarkably quiet inside.
The Space:
This home is all about character, space and an incredible location.
The centerpiece is the massive exposed stone wall rising through the two-level interior. Built-in illuminated niches, vintage street lamps and a black spiral staircase give the home a look and atmosphere you simply don't find in a typical rental.
DOWNSTAIRS LOUNGE
Follow the spiral staircase down and the home completely opens up.
The oversized lower lounge sits directly against the stone wall and features a large sectional, leather lounge chair with ottoman, large TV and plenty of room to spread out.
Running along the stone wall are three wide concrete tiers with cushions and pillows, creating additional lounge seating across nearly the entire room.
At night, turn on the stone-wall lighting and glowing candle niches and the whole room takes on a warm, almost hidden-lounge feel.
BEDROOM
Just off the lounge, sliding barn doors open to an unexpectedly large bedroom with:
• 2 queen beds
• Quality linens and bedding
• Large walk-in closet
• Dresser
• Full-length mirror
• Bench
• Ceiling fans
• Plenty of room for luggage
Being on the lower level also helps make the sleeping area remarkably quiet considering how close you are to the waterfront and nightlife.
MAIN LEVEL
Upstairs is bright, open and comfortable.
The fully equipped kitchen includes a gas range, stainless appliances, plenty of counter space and a large island with seating for four.
There's also a four-person dining table set up for meals, a second living area with a sofa and TV, and large windows bringing natural light into the space.
BATHROOM & LAUNDRY
The home has one full bathroom with a tub/shower plus a private washer and dryer for your stay.
SLEEPING
• Queen Bed #1 – Lower bedroom
• Queen Bed #2 – Lower bedroom
• Pull-out sectional – Lower lounge
• Pull-out sofa – Main level
With two living spaces and tons of seating, the home feels significantly larger than you might expect.
Guest Access:
You'll have private access to the entire home during your stay, including both levels, the kitchen, lower lounge, bedroom, bathroom, walk-in closet and washer/dryer.
Self check-in makes arrival simple. Your access instructions and door code will be provided before check-in.
Please note that this is a two-level home connected by a spiral staircase. Guests should be comfortable using stairs.
The Neighborhood:
You're staying right where Old City meets the Delaware River Waterfront—one of the most fun and walkable parts of Philadelphia.
Dave & Buster's is directly across the way, with Morgan's Pier, waterfront attractions, restaurants and nightlife just steps from the home.
Walk toward Old City and you'll quickly trade the waterfront for cobblestone streets, restaurants, bars, galleries and some of America's most famous historic sites.
Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell and Philadelphia's Historic District are easily accessible, while Center City, Northern Liberties and Fishtown are just beyond the neighborhood.
Our recommendation? Park the car and explore.
There's an incredible amount to eat, drink, see and do without having to drive across the city—and after a day out, you can come back to a home that's surprisingly peaceful inside.
Getting Around:
This is a great location for experiencing Philadelphia without constantly getting in the car.
WALKING
The Delaware River Waterfront and Old City are best explored on foot. Restaurants, bars, historic attractions and entertainment are all within walking distance.
PUBLIC TRANSIT
SEPTA's 2nd Street station is nearby, providing easy access across Center City and connections throughout Philadelphia.
UBER & LYFT
Rideshare is readily available and is usually the easiest option for destinations outside the immediate neighborhood.
DRIVING
There is no dedicated parking included with the home. Metered street parking and several paid garages and lots are available throughout Old City.
If you're staying for the weekend, we recommend finding a garage, parking the car and exploring the neighborhood on foot.
Other Things to Note:
A few things to know before booking:
SPIRAL STAIRCASE
The home's unique two-level design includes a spiral staircase. The bedroom and primary lounge are downstairs, so guests must be comfortable using stairs.
UNIQUE LAYOUT
This is not a traditional one-bedroom apartment. The oversized bedroom and main lounge are located on the lower level, while the kitchen, dining area and additional living space are upstairs.
QUIET INSIDE
You're staying extremely close to the waterfront, restaurants and entertainment, but one of our favorite surprises about this home is how quiet it feels once you're inside—especially in the downstairs bedroom.
PARKING
There is no dedicated parking included. Paid garages, lots and metered street parking are available nearby.
HISTORIC CHARACTER
The exposed stone, concrete tiers and other architectural elements are part of what makes this home special. If you're looking for a cookie-cutter apartment, this probably isn't it. If you want somewhere with genuine Philadelphia character, you're in the right place.
Interaction with Guests:
The home is completely private and yours to enjoy during your stay.
Our team is available through the booking app 24/7 for questions or assistance, and we're available by phone when needed.
We give our guests their space, but we're never far away if you need us. We're local to Philadelphia and always happy to help with restaurant recommendations, nightlife, attractions or ideas for exploring the city.
