Kid-friendly holiday rentals in University City, Philadelphia

Katerina was a great host and her place is lovely. Very well appointed, with the kinds of high end finishings you don't normally see in rental properties in this area. Clean, responsive, great experience all around.

This location was INCREDIBLE! This was my first experience booking with Airbnb and I could not have been happier! My guests and I all said that we would come back to Philadelphia just to stay here!

This was our second time staying at Evelyn's place. Evelyn goes above and beyond to make the place feel welcoming. Checking in and out was a breeze, and the house had everything we could have wanted in a home away from home.

We really enjoyed staying at Rob and Amanda’s place! The living room and dining area were spacious, the kitchen was brand new, and the bedrooms were comfortable. We especially loved the neighborhood. We had our 4 month old with us and there were always tons of families out walking and we were able to get takeout from the two restaurants that were each a half block away when we didn’t have the energy to go out for food or cook. The noise did not bother us or our daughter. We put her in the middle bedroom, which faces a back courtyard, and we slept in the back bedroom. The front bedroom probably has some street noise (as mentioned in the listing) but we really did not notice anything. For parking, my husband would usually just drop us off and go park. It never took him more than 5 or 10 minutes of looking to find a spot within a few blocks.

Wonderful location, walkable to delicious coffee spots (Fiore), adorable shopping and gift ideas (Cloud 9 Clay), many food options (Laser Wolf) and down the street from Indigo bikes to cruise around town. Clean space, painted in bright lively colors with an overall feeling of creative serenity. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks Enmanuel!

Great house and easy ride into Philly. Close to all the colleges, but not in an area with college kid houses. Great back yard for kids.

Great value and great host. Thanks Ana!

Everything was wonderful. Upon arrival, everything was very clean. The rooms were set up and decorated very nice. The neighborhood was extremely quiet. Patricia gave clear instructions from the beginning. She always responded within minutes. Our stay was perfect. I highly recommend. Pam Hawkins.

The apartment was spacious for our small family, Malyka was good with communication and we enjoyed our stay in West Philly. Nice restaurants around, nice community. Altogether a good experience!

Wonderful stay in Philly! The apartment was very clean and beautifully decorated. Having a kitchen was a great bonus. The bed was huge and so comfortable. Check-in and check-out were super easy and hassle-free. The neighborhood was lovely and we felt very safe walking around. Plus, Whole Foods was just a 10-minute walk away, which was super convenient. We'd definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for stay in Philadelphia!

The apartment is a nice size and has a full size kitchen. Timothy gave detailed instructions on checking in to the place. It is in a quiet area. If you are looking for a place to feel like home while on the road, I recommend his apartment.

Joseph was great and accommodating, my family was traveling for a funeral and needed an early check-in and other accommodations. Joseph made sure the home was ready early and spotless. I would definitely recommend.

Awesome place with an awesome host.. My daughter whose 3 years old loves “her room” the room with dolls and Rainbow curtains. Whenever I’m back in the Philly area I will be booking here

Very nice and comfortable, I’ll definitely book again. Emg was a great host.

Samantha's place was perfect for our recent visit for our daughter's Capstone presentation. We love staying right in BrynMawr right by her house with so many fun restaurants and bars within walking distance. The apartment is on a quiet street too which was nice for sleeping! The apartment is well stocked and Samantha's visitors guide is very well done. We walked both mornings over on the Haverford trail and stopped for coffee at La Colombe on our way back. I would definitely stay here again if available!

The place was awesome!! Easy to find and perfect location.

The space was even roomier, brighter, and lovelier than the pictures. The area was walkable, with tons to do, cool murals around every corner, and so many excellent food and beverage options. Natasha was a wonderful, responsive host. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We had a great 2-night stay for a quick family trip to Philadelphia with a 4 year old and 8 month old. The apartment was exactly as described with several thoughtful extras and in a great location for walking to the historic areas of the city. There was some road noise in the back bedroom (and you could hear the kids upstairs running around) but we quickly got used to it and it didn’t wake up the baby - so not a big deal. We only had one question (about parking) and Gabriel quickly responded, and it turned out that the info we needed had already been provided along with any other info we might have required. The place was family friendly as described and the only thing our 4 year old asked for that wasn’t there already was a stool to stand on in the bathroom :) Overall we had a very good stay and wished that we could’ve stayed longer.

We stayed at Glady's place to see a concert at the Met, and it was perfect! The location right across the street from the Met made our attendance at the concert so easy and stress-free. We got a delicious sushi dinner right around the corner, and in the morning walked the short walk to Starbucks for our morning coffee. Gladys was so helpful and responded right away to all of my inquiries.

Great place to stay when visiting Philly!

Great place to stay for a vacation in Camden city

I love the aesthetics throughout the property. I was already familiar with the area and it was conveniently close to everything that I needed to do. I really enjoyed the kitchen set up and the yard. The beds were super comfy. It took me a little minute to figure out how to work one of the showers however, it was definitely amazing. A friend of mine recommended this location to me (they should offer her a discount lol) and I would definitely stay again.

Great location with coffee shops, restaurants and stores nearby. Plenty of street parking and easy access to other neighborhoods in Philadelphia. Kristen is a great host and responded to questions right away. My husband and I were in Philadelphia for my son’s birthday, would stay at Kristen’s place on a future visit.

We were in town for a weekend and loved our stay at Christina’s place - it’s so clean and comfortable (with many nice touches) and located right in the middle of a cool Philly neighborhood with excellent food/drinks options around! We also appreciated how responsive Christina was to our questions. We had a great stay and would definitely stay here again!
