Work Trip
The property is in great condition. What you see in the pictures is what you get. Lin was great at responding to questions. Even though there isn't assigned parking we were always able to park right outside the property even when returning late at night.

Beautiful spaces
This is an order home that has been updated. There are 2 units with the bigger one being upstairs. If you have mobility issues, be warned. The steps are steep. My family wouldn't let me try to climb them so my husband and i stayed in the downstairs unit. Bith units are lovely, with modern kitchens, but unit 1 is much smaller. We had a great time in Philly and were comfortable in this home.
