Beautiful home!! We had a lovely vacation here. It is close to the downtown area and we walked there several times. We traveled with our baby and the nursery room attached to the main bedroom was perfect! The host is also very friendly and responded quickly to anything we needed. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher B. 16 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Three Day Stay Great communication with the host. The place was just as advertised. If there were any issues the host was quick to respond. The place is in a perfect spot just far enough away from the commercialized Salem to be quiet and close enough to walk to everything. Our family enjoyed the stayed and would stay here again. The only recommendation I would make is blinds in the living room area. ##### Christopher B. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tara P. 30 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean & Convenient home away from home The hosts of this property were very communicative. I couldn’t find my check In instructions and phoned the number attached to the listing. Joseph phoned back within the hour and helped me locate them in my junk folder. He even forwarded them to me again. Midway through the stay he texted to check in on us to see how we were doing. We have family in Salem that live near the waterfront so we didn’t rent a car. We were able to walk 15 minutes to downtown and less than 20 to their house, making this condo the perfect midpoint for our stay. The kitchen is stocked with all the necessities & there is a corner store literally around the corner. My only suggestion would be to add some curtains in the dining room for added privacy as you exit the bathroom & perhaps some black out shades in the bedrooms. I adjusted to East Coast time zone quickly as I was waking with the sunrise. 😉 ##### Tara P.

This was a great property to stay in Salem. Easily walkable to everything or a very inexpensive Uber. It was very clean and upgraded with really nice appliances, bathroom and kitchen. We were 4 adults and it was more than enough room for us all. Communication wasn’t as clear between Evolve and the owner. Using the chat on VRBO app, I only received one email as correspondence and didn’t get anything else after that. I did get an email with check in instructions and a phone number - which was helpful. Suggestion would be email that infomation sooner. ##### Shaun D.
