✪King Bed Apartment✪ in Suburbs | Perfect Long Term Stay

Delaware County, United States

Guest rating: 4.3 / 5

Overview

This King Bed Apartment is a second-floor unit located in the Delaware County suburbs, designed with long-term and extended stays in mind. It occupies a shared residential building with full-time neighbors, giving it a lived-in, home-like character rather than a typical hotel feel. Free parking is included, which is a practical plus for suburban stays outside the city core.

Unit & Amenities

The apartment features a king bed, full kitchen with oven, stove, and microwave, air conditioning, heating, cable TV, and an ironing board for longer stays where guests want to cook and settle in. The property is smoke-free and includes free Wi-Fi, making it suitable for both relaxing and getting work done. Note that the unit is accessed via stairs, as it sits on the second floor of an older building.

Dining & Nearby Food

Guests have a wide range of dining options within a short walk or drive, including Folcroft Diner, Terry's Too bar & grill, Chef Wayne at Terry's Too, Lagos Island Grille Sharon Hill for soul food, Grill & Glaze for halal fare, El Limón Glenolden, Delco Diner, and The Fainting Goat Bar and Restaurant. This variety supports both quick bites and sit-down meals without needing a car for many options.

Location & Transit

The apartment is a five-minute walk from Sharon Hill train station and close to the Sharon Hill tram stop and the Elmwood Av & Sharon Av bus station, giving good access to regional transit. It's roughly a 9-minute drive to Philadelphia International Airport, and about 20 minutes by car or train to CHOP, UPenn, and downtown Philadelphia. Nearby institutions include Taylor Hospital, Swarthmore College, and Widener University, and Boeing is also a short drive away.

Best for

This apartment best suits long-term stays, remote workers, and travelers who want suburban quiet with quick access to Philadelphia via nearby train, tram, and bus stops. The full kitchen, free Wi-Fi, and free parking make it especially practical for guests visiting nearby Taylor Hospital, Swarthmore College, or Widener University for extended periods. It's less suited to those needing ground-floor or elevator access, since the unit is up a flight of stairs.

Travel tips

Sharon Hill train station is just a five-minute walk away, offering a convenient train option into downtown Philadelphia in about 20 minutes, an alternative to driving. Philadelphia International Airport is roughly a 9-minute drive, making early or late flights manageable. Since the unit is on the second floor of an older building with no mention of an elevator, pack light or plan for stairs with luggage.

What guests say

Guests consistently praised the quiet, suburban location, describing it as a comfortable balance between city access and calm neighborhood living, with several noting the convenience of the spot for getting around via rideshare. The host was mentioned as responsive and kind, and the living space was appreciated for privacy, making it well-suited to remote work stays. On the downside, reviewers noted the building's age showing through some "aged charm," occasional cleanliness that could be more detailed, and stairs that may be difficult for guests with knee or mobility issues. A couple of reviews also mentioned sharing the building with full-time residential neighbors, though interactions were described as pleasant.
