This is probably the best short term rental in Philadelphia. The second you step inside, you realize this is a home away from home. The couches are clean and very cozy. The dining room is magnificent with unique ambient lighting. Step into the kitchen and more surprises. Fully equipped including an excellent coffee brewery fully stocked with complimentary coffee. The cabinets are stocked with all utensils, a variety of spices and even some rice, which I didn't use. The bathroom and bedrooms are 5 Star hotel quality, including a bath robe. This will definitely be my place of choice. Its a bit pricey but definitely worth the money.
