The Space:
The house is over 100 years old. It was renovated a few years ago to have a clean, modern feel while retaining its New England charm.
The apartment features a full kitchen that includes all items that you will need for cooking, including a tea and coffee maker. A communal dining area is perfect for congregating the entire group, eating meals and hanging out.
One of the four bedrooms double as a living room / family room area, creating ample space for groups to relax, play games, and unwind from the day.
The flat panel TV in the living room is connected to Cable which provides access to over 200 digital and HD channels.
The apartment contains an iron, ironing board and blow dryer for your convenience. We like to make your stay as easy as possible so can provide anything else (within reason) that helps you enjoy the apartment.
Guest Access:
Check-in is seamless and can happen 24-hours a day, making your arrival experience hassle free.
Parking in Salem can be tough to find -- especially in the evenings, weekends and during peak season. Parking at the apartment is not guaranteed. There is one off-street spot that is shared by all of our three apartments. It is available daily on a first-come first-serve basis.
For convenience and security, some guests prefer covered parking in a garage. There is a garage that is located a 7-minute walk away from our property. The garage is called the South Harbor Garage at 10 Congress Street.
The Neighborhood:
The immediately surrounding area is up-and-coming: It is a high-energy, and diverse mostly Hispanic working class neighborhood. You'll get an authentic flavor of the area and be in proximity of lots of restaurants and beaches. We assume that some families may shy away from a local feeling, working class neighborhood, whereas others are even more excited by the local experience. On summer weekends, the immediately surrounding area can be lively and festive. This energy will be fun for most visitors, but others may find the area to be on the loud side. If you are a delicate sleeper that does not like a lot of sound and noise this location may not be good for you. The visitor-favorite Salem Waterfront and Historical District is a five minute walk from the property.
