Owner was very accessible whenever I messaged. The house was very clean, beds comfortable, cute Kisses by the beds for a treat. The TV was easy to use. Only a few minor criticisms: The air fresheners were over powering and I had to unplug several while we were there. The AC window units go on and off during the night. There was no shampoo or soap for the shower.

List as advertised— great stay for my family of 4 including 2 small kids. It was spacious and clean, I was worried about the AC given an old review but there was a ton of units and it was very comfortable. The location is minutes away from everything. It’s close to busy roads but that’s why it’s so accessible to the park and the downtown area. A parking spot in front of the house too so no issue parking. I’d definitely book here again.

Great overnight stay

We were in town for a family wedding and needed somewhere to stay after a long drive for the night. Place was really nice, clean, plenty of space, nice and cool with AC. The property manager and host were so incredibly nice and accommodating! They really went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of and comfortable.

Misleading

No picture of exterior home or description that it was a double block. Parking was terrible. Neighbors weren’t nice. Ice maker broken. Says sleeps 8 but only 3 beds. So no extra blankets or pillows for the big sectional. Couldn’t get into home as the access code was changed by cleaners. Home owners didn’t respond to messages through VRBO timely.

Nice but we left. Ended up on a hotel.

Nice property. But not good for someone who is sensitive to smell. Food order was present. Not sure if it was from tenant downstairs or previous visitors. We ended up leaving to stay at a hotel the second night. Overall the house is clean. Good size place for small family. Scared the crap out of the kids because one light switch turns off the lights upstairs in the bedroom. Location is nice and very close Hersey! Parking in front is not ideal if you have a big car but there are other options . Walls are thin you can hear tv from the neighbor and the movement of the tenant downstairs. Nice living room space to hang out. . Would recommend tv in bedrooms upstairs or at least the master.

Short Stay in Hershey

The property was perfect for a short trip to Hershey. It was a 10 minute walk to the downtown restaurants or just a short 2 min drive. We stayed for a business trip, but would also be good for a single family or small group.

Comfortable and clean

We chose for pet friendly and close to Hershey lodge convention. Home was clean and nicely rehabbed. I'm insanely jealous of the first floor hardwood floors which were breathtaking on entry! Kitchen was functional, but could be a tad better appointed with the basics. We made due and were prepared just in case as we never really know with vrbo homes what cutlery/dishes etc will be available. It did not change our comfort. Parking was street only, which was ok after unloading. Nice place, we'll rent again if needed!
