Great stay in Media
We had lots of fun at this well-appointed house and lovely back yard! The beds were a bit small, especially downstairs, but adequate and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook for our troop. The owner provided plenty of towels and other supplies. Media itself surprised us by having interesting restaurants and shops. There was also a playground for little people in easy walking distance.

Charming house
The location just outside of Media is in a very good and quiet neighborhood. The house has a nostalgic charm. The kitchen has lots of cooking tools and equipment, and is well maintained. The garden is lovely, and we were able to eat outside. The sheets and pillows would benefit from a bit of refreshing.
