Colorful & Convenient Darby Apt, 7 Mi to Stadiums!
Delaware County, United States
Overview
This colorful vacation rental sits in Darby, Delaware County, just outside Philadelphia, offering a 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment on the second floor of a two-unit building. It's a self-catering, home-style stay rather than a traditional hotel, geared toward travelers who want space, a kitchen, and easy road access via US-13. A second bookable unit exists downstairs, and guests share the backyard parking, laundry room, and deck.
Rooms & Layout
The apartment has two bedrooms, each with a queen bed, plus one bathroom, making it suited to small groups or two couples traveling together. Living spaces include a dining table and three Smart TVs, and the unit is furnished with linens, towels, a hair dryer, and an iron/board for longer or work-related stays.
Kitchen & Amenities
The kitchen comes equipped with a stove/oven, refrigerator, microwave, drip coffee maker with provided coffee, an electric kettle, and basic cookware and dishware, so guests can prepare their own meals rather than rely on a restaurant. The unit also features central air conditioning and heating, a washer for laundry, a crib for traveling families, and a patio/deck area with tables and seating; a grill is available on request.
Parking & Access
Free shared backyard parking accommodates two vehicles on a first-come basis, with additional street parking nearby. Note that although described as a single-story unit, it is located on the second floor and requires a flight of interior stairs, and there is a building elevator listed among the amenities.
Location & Surroundings
The apartment is within a mile of Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital and close to public transit, including the Darby Transit Center tram stop (490m) and Chester Pk & Pine St bus station (34m), plus nearby Morton and Airport Terminal A/B train stations. It's about 7 miles from Lincoln Financial Field, Citizens Bank Park, and Harrah's Philadelphia Casino & Race Track, 5-10 miles from University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University, and The Franklin Institute, and roughly 13-14 miles from Independence National Historical Park, the Liberty Bell, Reading Terminal Market, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Philadelphia International Airport is about 9 miles away, and several casual dining options -- including Tommy's Tavern, Terry's Too, and Golden Star American & Chinese Food -- sit within a mile or two.
Best for
This rental suits sports fans and event-goers heading to Lincoln Financial Field or Citizens Bank Park (about 7 miles away), small groups or two couples needing two queen bedrooms, and self-caterers who want a full kitchen and laundry rather than hotel service. It also works well for traveling nurses or hospital visitors, given the sub-1-mile distance to Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital, and for airport-adjacent stays thanks to proximity to Philadelphia International Airport and nearby transit stations.
Travel tips
Use the Darby Transit Center tram stop (490m) or the Chester Pk & Pine St bus station (right outside, 34m) to reach Philadelphia's core attractions without driving, or take advantage of easy access to US-13 if you have a car. Since the apartment is on the second floor with a flight of interior stairs and shares parking, laundry, and deck access with another on-site unit, pack light and expect to coordinate shared space with other travelers. Plan on roughly a 9-mile trip to Philadelphia International Airport and 13-14 miles to downtown sights like the Liberty Bell and Philadelphia Museum of Art.
