Best place we've stayed in several visits to New Haven. Beautiful and comfortably redone second level unit with lots of space and everything you need. Lots of natural light and conveniently located to Yale.

Beautiful first impression. Love the space, amenities, common areas and parking. I was thankful for the washer and dryer. We navigated around town well and the house was convenient to the train station and dining

Yale Football Camp Mini Vaca
The property is just as pictured - very beautifully decorated, clean and relaxing. My husband, mostly adult children & I enjoyed our time there immensely! The apt had everything we needed and we thoroughly loved hangong out on the peacful porch in the mornings and watching movies at night. It's close to Yale and downtown so my daughter and I had a lovely walk through the campus which led us into downtown. The host was friendly and fast with responces. It was a WONDERFUL stay and I would love to come back!

weekend in New Haven and Yale area
This wonderful property is updated, immaculate, and provided a wonderful stay for our family. It's on a quiet street with ample parking. I enjoyed a peaceful cup of coffee sitting on the porch each morning. The amenities were great, and we appreciated the great work of the hosts in making things easy for check-in and having everything ready for us. Highly recommended!

New Haven stay
The apartment was very well appointed. Lovely colors and appliances although we didn't cook. Beds very comfortable. Easy to find with plenty of parking. Several old and empty homes on the street but we felt safe and it was quiet.
