Bi-Level 2B Loft | Old City (4R)

This spot was a good find for 7 people needing a spot to crash during the big July 4th weekend (note, there are only beds for 6; one of us slept on the floor). Reading the other reviews helped set our expectations and it was fine. It's a 4th floor walk-up, so be ready for that. The weekend was blistering hot (they cancelled the parade!) and the air conditioning did its best (main floor was plenty cool, the upstairs was a little warm--we keep our house on the warmer side so we were good, but folks who like it cold may not have been happy). Knowing in advance that there is one small table and two chairs (and that's it for "hanging out space"), we brought some camp chairs and a camp table to provide more places to rest and hang out after kids were asleep. We also ate out for all meals, so the lack of kitchen paraphernalia wasn't an issue. The reviews are spot on for the state of the place. Whoever decorated clearly hasn't seen a drywall anchor before, so things are barely attached to the walls. Plenty of extra holes and not much attempt at repair. All that being said, we knew what to expect going in, and it was all fine for us. The location can't be beat, right on Market Street between 3rd and 4th. It was super convenient and we could stop by throughout the day. Brittany was very communicative through the VRBO app and responded quickly. Overall, it accomplished what we needed for the weekend.

Great location, easy check in/check out.

A little bit worse for ware. Positive: Location. Negative: The upkeep was subpar. Holes in almost every wall. Large holes. Crumbling window sills. Loose fixtures everywhere. Broken closet door. Lamps that did not work. Stains on the bed spreads. Even my youngest commented on the condition of the space.

Great place in a great location. Had everything we needed and was within walking distance of the majority of places we wanted to visit during our stay.

The host was responsive, the price is reasonable, and the location in Old City meant that walking wherever I needed to go was easy. That said, the photographs do not accurately represent the condition of the apartment; it's badly worn, with damage to lots of surfaces. There's also an air conditioning unit (or something?) on the roof that makes the top floor bedroom feel a bit like a garage door is repeatedly opening during the night.
