The location is on the east side of town, so if you want to see Rocky, Rittenhouse or Love Park you have a bit of a walk or an Uber in your future. But, it is only one block from the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall. The property felt only “surfaced” cleaned. The doorknobs, wood floors and the refrigerator were sticky and there were crumbs on the counters and noticeably under the small appliances. The kitchen sink smelt terrible and both sinks in the primary bedroom were very slow to drain. The smaller third bedroom has no windows (which I know happens in condos/apts.) or a TV. There is barely any decor on the walls in the condo, just holes where prior decor used to be. This just made the condo seem underwhelming and not the “luxurious million dollar condo” as advertised. The view into the condo from the elevator was nice. The road noise was much louder than expected (you’re on the third floor and you don’t find this out until the day before check-in) and the noise is constant and can be disturbing in the early morning hours. The primary bedroom no longer looks like what’s in the listing pictures, so that was a bit of a let down. Your access into the building is located a short ways down an alley. Unfortunately, there was an event in this alleyway during most of my stay (not the fault of the condo owner) and their equipment was constantly blocking the door and their set up and take down was very loud and began very early (we checked in at 6:30a and they were already there working). The most disturbing thing was that we were already more than 24 hrs. into our stay when someone unexpectedly entered the condo. There is no lockable door to enter the condo. You gain direct access by typing in a provided code once you’re in the elevator and the elevator opens directly into the condo. We did find out later that it was someone from the management company (not some random person) dropping off the garage key card (better late than never I guess). But, the fact that they entered the condo unannounced felt like it violated our safety and privacy. It would have been nice if the management company would have notified us in advance to let us know they were coming. This freaked my daughter out immensely. Communication with the management company from the start of reservation was great (minus the one time that was somewhat traumatizing) and they responded quickly through messaging through the VRBO app and phone and every single time.

Parking just down the street in garage with card access. Close to wawa and independence park- only down sides can hear neighbors and vice versa- also communication emailed and texted some questions with no response.

The apartment was beautiful and it was an easy walk to anything we wanted to see and do. Having the parking deck so close was a huge bonus! everything was very conveniently located.
