非常推薦！賓大附近，很難得的是可以免費停車！房子三層，奢華田園風，房子本身就很值得餐館，床很舒服。早餐很好吃，老闆特別熱心周到，又異常有分寸，平時感覺不到服務人員的存在，難得的經歷。

The house was beautiful, the hospitality was wonderful, Cesar the innkeeper was very helpful and upgraded our room for free, which was so nice. The breakfast was delicious and I loved our room. It’s so cool that the house is over 120 years old, beautiful house. I would definitely go back there if I’m in the area. Also, Annette and her son were wonderful and very helpful as well.

Lovely old mansion in west philly with fantastic grounds and wrap around porch. Location is ideal to University City and trolley stop is at corner. Beautiful rooms and fantastic breakfast. Cesar is a great host and his dogs are fun to play with. Off-street parking is a bonus.

Lovely restored Victorian home that is beautifully kept. Staff is helpful, accommodating and kind. My room was well furnished and the bed and pillows extremely comfortable. I slept so well in this quiet house. The grounds and porch have multiple perches for sitting and reading or taking in city life. I will definitely try another visit!

My best friend and I stayed here for a night for the Green Day concert. We had a fantastic stay. The b&b is beautiful and extremely comfortable. We slept great and breakfast was delicious. My friend is vegan and they were so accommodating, they made her a delicious tofu dish. We’ll absolutely be staying here again if we make it back to Philly!

I am not sure how this hotels have so many wonderful reviews. I will start with the pros and move to the cons. PROS 1. The staff were friendly very warm welcoming. 2. Parking if free. CONS. 1. The place is run down and needs renovations. The curtains were have with dust, if you suffer from allergies, asthma or sinusitis DO NOT STAY THERE! My allergies Immediately flares up. Itchy eyes, sore throat and headache. 2. The sitting chair in our room was torn and faded, and was covered with a blanket to hid the rips. 3. Bathroom is down the hall and we had to share it with guests. 4. The bathroom stall wait not clean ( Please bring a pair of slippers to wear in the shower). The bathroom windows, sink and needs to be fixed. 5. The outside porch/veranda has old torn, and faded furnitures. The flooring is also old and faded and broken. 6. The only restaurant close by was an Ethiopian restaurant, and a pizza shop. I wish I could upload a video This place is not as advertised. We did not stay for breakfast.
