Mrs. Ali and her son were beyond kind to me. I can’t express how much love I have for them. She always made sure to check in with me, have a chat, and make sure I was comfortable. Beyond kind to both me and my sister. If I were ever back in Philly, she is the first person I’ll reach out to.
(Mrs. Ali, if you see this, hi I miss you!)

It was great experience to stay at Rebecca’s lovely house.
Rebecca is super nice and funny and helpful. she didn’t just chatted with us; she taught us so many important things about raising a child she got great knowledge in verity of fields.
And her son was so nice and helpful all the time.
She takes good care of her beautiful garden and the house is spacious. With cute little dog we enjoyed our stay and we highly recommend it.
How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) and a 25% deposit using a choice of payments: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal. The deposit is collected in advance on behalf of the host to protect against no show or late cancellations (within 7 days of arrival). You then pay your host the balance due on arrival. The 25% deposit payment is made to the host 2 business days after your scheduled arrival date. This deposit payment will only be refunded if you cancel the booking at least 7 full days prior to arrival.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
