The Neighborhood:
Fishtown has exploded into an arts district. There's always something new and exciting happening in this vibrant neighborhood, from the delicious food and drinks at local restaurants and bars to the awesome art galleries and live music venues. If you walk along the side streets packed with row homes, you may also notice decorative wooden fish displaying home numbers—a signature of apartments here. An urban farm next to a Dunkin’ Donuts, a waterfront park connected to a graffiti garden–Fishtown just does things a little differently, and people are noticing. Home of the bakery that made Beyonce’s birthday cake and recent recipients of America’s Best Sandwich and one of America’s best hotel rooms awards, the future for this hip neighborhood is bright. From shops and art galleries to bookstores and parks, some popular attractions in Fishtown include the Fillmore Philadelphia, a music venue that hosts concerts and events; Frankford Hall, a German-style beer garden with outdoor seating; and La Colombe Coffee Roasters, a popular coffee shop chain that originated in Philadelphia. There are lots of unique places to check out around the neighborhood!

Summary: Very cute property. If you’re a light sleeper, don’t expect to sleep much with the subway train and traffic noise, however, it is surrounded by great food and bars! The property has been taken care of, although it needs better upkeep. The caulking and grout in the bathroom shower was full of mildew and black mold. Water pressure left a lot to be desired, mostly with the bathroom sink faucet. Parking is on the other side closest to the main road, which isn’t bad, at least your car isn’t on the road. As for communication with ownership/rental management, it could definitely be better and much improvement is needed. 2 weeks before arrival, I contacted them and didn’t receive a response. I responded to several emails with questions and no response. A week prior, I requested to see if they could provide early arrival and they took 3 days to get back to me. The day of arrival, mere hours before arrival, they granted one hour early arrival. I was appreciative, but communication could certainly be improved.

Summary: We were in town for Christmas to visit family. We used to live in the Philadelphia but did not know much about fishtown. It is amazing. Wonderful restaurants, night life and coffee shops. The rental had a secure parking spot and that was key. We love to cook and wanted to make breakfast Christmas morning. There were not enough pots and pans, but once we asked a new set was bought to the location. I highly recommend this unit and the managment company was great. We will be back again.

Summary: 4 of my immediate family was in Philly for a regatta. This location was perfect. The area was safe and had lots of families, even with little kids in strollers, people walking dogs, etc. Seems like a trendy little area with restaurants, bars and such. We loved it. Would definitely stay here again!
