A Glamorous Gem just 13mins from downtown/9mins from Zoo!

Enjoy a stylish experience at this centrally-located place. Just 13mins away from downtown and 9mins from the Philadelphia Zoo! Enjoy game night and music with friends and family in this contemporary home with rare built in ceiling speakers that can be synced right to your phone! And while listening to some great music, also take advantage of a beautiful new kitchen that you can prepare your favorite foods and desserts in! This 3Bd/3Ba stay is elegantly decorated to make you feel like it is your home away from home! *There are no large parties or smoking in this property. The smoking fee is $250 and if there is more than 14 people in the house at one time/ playing loud music then I will ask everyone to leave.

Enjoyed our stay
My family and I enjoyed our stay. We came down for an event and didn't spend too much time on the property. However, it was clean and nicely furnished. The owner was prompt in responding to questions. Would recommend.

Great townhouse!!
The property was well turned and supplied, check in was s breeze, Ferg responded quickly to any inquiry and we had no problems in the house! Place was clean and well ordered when we arrived and the info we needed was really available. Convenient to downtown and several attractions. Parking was the only real concern, but that worked out as well!!

Great townhouse!
This is a gorgeous townhouse, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My 10 year old loved having a tv in “his” bedroom. The bed was comfortable, and lots of pillows were provided. There is a blanket available for cuddling on the couch. We were very comfortable. Parking was a bit of a nightmare, my bias is I live in the suburbs…if you live in the city, and are accustomed to street parking, this might not be of concern. I did manage to find, and wiggle my car into a spot. I kept watching my vehicle to see if I would have the opportunity to get more wiggle room…and no one on the street around us moved their cars at all. No one went out Saturday night, no Sunday outings, no going to work on Monday. We ended up ubering everywhere.
