About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Private Room; Shared House

Private 2nd floor bedroom in a shared house with a shared bathroom located in Brewerytown.

The kitchen and laundry room is reserved for tenants. Please be respectful of the other housemates.
The space
The room is located on the second floor-opposite to another bedroom with a full-time tenant. Please be mindful of this before choosing to book this space.

It’s a very basic room. There’s a queen sized mattress, and some odd-end furniture throughout the room. There’s a TV with Roku.

This was once a yoga room, so there’s attachments on the ceiling for a yoga swing- please do not touch.

There’s a full sized, shared bathroom. Again, please be respectful of the other tenants and keep the area clean.

Shampoo and conditioner is not provided, so please bring your own. This is a SHARED bathroom with a full-time tenant. He uses the sink and drawers to the right. Please only use the sink and drawers to the left. Additionally, the bathtub has a special catcher that must be cleaned after each shower. Please be respectful of this shared space and clean this catcher after each use.

The temperature control is located in another bedroom-making it difficult for you to control the temperature on your own. You will need to text me whenever you want an adjustment, and I can control it easily from my phone. Don’t be afraid to text! I try to respond quickly and it’s truly not a bother!
Guest access
You’ll enter the front door and immediately walk upstairs. The bedroom is directly in front of you on the second floor landing. Common spaces (living room, kitchen, washer/dryer, etc.) are reserved for tenants, so please stick to the bedroom and the bathroom during your stay.
Other things to note
It’s a basic listing… a comfortable place to sleep in a shared house with wifi.

No smoking, pets, or parties are permitted.
Don’t flush tampons or wipes down the toilet.

To adjust the temperature in the room, you’ll have to text me. Never feel about this-it’s not a bother at all.

Do not use any of the bathroom products that are not yours. This is a shared bathroom with a full-time tenant. His stuff is in the drawers to the right. You have access to the sink and drawers to the left.

Finally, the lock on the bedroom door only locks from the inside, but there is not a key to lock the door behind you when you leave. This has never once been a problem for any guest. The tenants living in my house have been with me for years. They are extremely respectful and trustworthy. If it will be a problem that you cannot lock the bedroom door behind you however, this may not be the best booking for you.

Clean, Comfortable Room in Brewerytown, Philadelphia
Clean and bright large, private room with wonderful King bed in renovated townhouse across from small park. Very clean shared bathroom. Washing machine and dryer in hall. Free street parking and spots were always available. Downstairs kitchen is not shared. Never saw the long-term tenants. Great way to stay close to beautiful Fairmont Park on a budget!
