Verified traveller

Adequate for what we needed. We didn't really cook anything or hang out, just needed a space to sleep. It was quite roomy. A bit musty, but better with the A/Cs running. You must turn off A/Cs to run microwave, and we did also for hair dryers, which was fine. Needed hand towels, and would have appreciated an extra bath towel or two. Attractive and the beds were quite comfortable.

The inside was immaculate! Home owner was very helpful and answered all our questions within minutes. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend. Our only issue was parking. You werent always guaranteed a spot in front of the building and neighborhood was sketchy

We left the first night and stayed at a hotel. The property advertised air conditioning. They had two wall units for a 3 BR property. We arrived around 8:00pm and it felt like an oven inside the property. In a text left on the day of check in, we were notified not to use the hair dryer or microwave while the wall AC units were on. We used neither, but made the mistake of using the regular oven. The whole house went black. The only positive thing I will say is that the owner was prompt with their response and issued as much of a refund as they could. VRBO still got 118 from this nightmare.

Kind and Clean

The property manager was friendly and eager to help. My husband and son stayed at a rental home in Delaware while they were there for a competition. They found the house to be cozy and tidy. However, they felt that the neighborhood didn't seem safe or welcoming. They were thankful to have a secure place to stay during their trip.

Art & History Lovers Visit Wilmington for the 1st Time

Perfect for a weeklong stay to explore Wilmington's cultural attractions. Centrally located. Clean and updated. Plenty of space (3 BR, living room & dining room) and fully equipped kitchen (we prepared all of our meals). Very quiet (never heard the neighbors; only a little occasional street noise). Safe to explore on foot (we use common sense and don't leave things visible in our car -- it is a city, afterall). Host VERY responsive (questions answered by message right away and checked in with us halfway through stay). Key code entry system works great, very convenient. An excellent VRBO!

Nice place, exactly as described and well appointed. Appreciate the little touches! I was worried about on street parking with my SUV but had no problems finding a place on the short block of the house. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Nice spot in a quiet neighborhood.

This family of 6 enjoyed our stay. Temps were in the upper 90s when we stayed, so we were very thankful for the multiple air conditioners in the home. Quick walk to the neighborhood grocer and short drive to Fort Delaware and the DuPont Gardens enhance the location.
