Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2018 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 4/10 Poor #### Veronica I. 7 May 2018 #### Decent Experience Grateful to have amenities in the restroom, towels available, and it seemed clean. On the other hand, there were quite a few things that weren’t quite accommodating. One of the beds wasn’t usable and I would have like to have been warned about it prior. The a/c wasn’t working and the host wasn’t able to fix it until after our stay making it quite uncomfortable to sleep. Otherwise it was a decent experience. ##### Veronica I. Stayed 2 nights in May 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle K. 2 Apr 2018 #### Great place on size & proximity to much! The owner's description and pictures of the property were so good and definitely accurate. Very spacious place, great for our family. Just as described and told to us. The owner communicated wonderfully with us and assisted us as well with our stay, all greatly appreciated. The place was clean and ready for us, with plenty of beds, towels and washcloths for our stay. Happy to hear that there are other places the owner has and look forward to staying again! Great proximity to downtown Philly as well as Philly suburbs - all of which we did. Thanks again! ##### Michelle K.

They ended up going to a hotel and getting rooms, where they felt safe. Also, the posting said it was close to Seaseme St. park.....not so much. Dr. Mia needs to be a little more honest with the description of this property. ##### Darryl J. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan C. 27 Sept 2017 #### Nice place...nice value! Dr. Mia was a great hostess...everything was ready for us when we arrived, including a wonderful aroma with a freshly lit candle. It was a great deal, and a great place. Parking seemed like it would be a challenge, but even with 3 vehicles we had no problem finding parking. I will likely stay there next time I'm in Philly too! ##### Dan C.
